Oh that was on EBay (and MN) last year too. I can't believe it didn't sell!

The original thread on this last year was great

Does anyone else think it's an ugly mountain od hideousness?

I'm sceptical that there's a wife in this equation, to be honest.

Doubleraspberry · 05/12/2019 22:48

NO! We all think it’s amazing and beautiful.

wasthatamistake · 05/12/2019 22:49

Oh yes he tried to sell this last year too. So odd

TheFutureMrsB · 05/12/2019 22:49

I'm sure I just saw He-Man as one of the figures Grin

Queenest · 05/12/2019 22:49

sprinkle I’m with you on that

Difficultcustomer · 05/12/2019 22:50

At that price I’d be expecting numerical accuracy.

If you need further inspiration for your next dinner party...

Can someone explain the bit in the blurb about the pomegranate to me please, my eye/brain coordination had broken down by that stage.

RightOnTheEdge · 05/12/2019 22:54

Haha! I remember this from last year! Can't believe it's still on ebay Grin

Icanttakethiscrapanymore · 05/12/2019 22:54

I can’t be the only one sat here wanting to offer £20. As horrible as it is it made me piss myself laughing last Xmas and this one too

Queenest · 05/12/2019 22:54

I think whoever buys it is setting themselves up for disappointment.

I'm sceptical that there's a wife in this equation, to be honest.

Probably his dad's wife, aka his mum....

TheReluctantCountess · 05/12/2019 23:04

That’s beautiful. Honest...

AutumnCrow · 05/12/2019 23:17

How much was it going for last year, a grand?

bionicnemonic · 05/12/2019 23:29

A rough calculation puts it at about £8 per figure...
Feeling a bit sorry for them...they’ll see they’ve had LOADS of views...

DarrellMakepeace · 05/12/2019 23:35

Amazing. Does the tree rotate?

GiantKitten · 05/12/2019 23:36

He’s offering 24-month finance on it Hmm

Majorcollywobble · 05/12/2019 23:40

Free postage and packing too !

Queenest · 05/12/2019 23:45

Why is built around a chocolate tin? Cheapens it a little imho

DeeZastris · 05/12/2019 23:48

If anything it’s underpriced. A true masterpiece.

MsFuckedOff · 05/12/2019 23:55

I'm not believing for one minute that the Xmas hideousness or the other steampunk monstrosity were ever part of some dinner party. Looking at the seller's other items, I can tell you for a fact that he has never left his mother's basement in the last 10 years.

That blatant lie bothered me more than the price of this tat, the offensive grammar, capitalisation & spelling of the description or the items themselves.
