... of becoming the happy owner of this MARVELOUS piece of cra... eeerrmh, I mean piece of collection! It's UNIQUE, it's HANDMADE and it could be YOURS for 60 Euros - OR MORE! link
Aside the fact that there are a lot of flaws about the item itself...
in that poor quality 60 bucks is a bit of a rip off...isn't it ?
I mean 25 - 30 Euro incl. shipping, and I may give it a thought. Just for the fun aspect.
Despite the fact that I'm confused what's being offered (the site displays a collection CD/DVD I think. .)
...I think that John looks pretty awesome!
If I were a rich bastard I'd buy it for laughs.
But seriously. . John actually resembles John.
Some of the Freddie figurines have looked pretty bad. ... BAD. .
I've got a 18" one that plays music. Freddie's proportions would have made him 12 feet tall

Come on, it even features the classic Brian's 8-strings Blue Special guitar and John's 5-strings bass!

Some years ago, my then-girlfriend went to Russia and brought me some Queen Russian nesting dolls as a joke. Not the best-looking Queen item ever, I tell you...
yeah, I'd buy it just because John DOES look like John.
But because of The Blue Special, and that Freddie's pants aren't white, I'll have to pass. Oh well;-)
(I do love these posts for the smiles they bring)
Several years ago this RJD collectible was released. It cost something like $89 . I think it looks horrible and poorly made.
Their second attempt was a little better but it's still crap.
Their QUEEN line (Freddie and Brian) weren't as horrible. But Brian still looks horribly rushed. His body is a wavy wobbly legged dwarf.
I haven't seen a good Queen statuette collectible out there except the FM statue replica of Montreux
This is why I marvel at the John Deacon resemblance in the eBay post.
So what if Brian's rocking out a BLUE SPECIAL (cake??) Guitar. ... haha

Russian craftsmanship was always appalling.
Just consider the cars the Soviets used to make.
Their work ethic is very much "if it works well enough, sod precision, details, etc."
