Darth Vader Gorilla

[georgeb]

On 6th November, Paignton Zoo are holding a charity auction of their Great Gorillas. One of them is the very unique, one-off: Darth Vader Gorilla. He has his own Facebook page, created by his artist, Mandii Pope. https://www.facebook.com/DarthVaderGorilla
If you are a collector and you wanted to bid, you do not need to appear at the auction in person (it is to be held in Paignton, Devon). Proxy bids or phone bids are possible, however the winning bidder must arrange collection/delivery.
The proceeds go towards Paignton Zoo's conservation projects around the world, the Wildlife Conservation Society's Cross River gorilla project, and Children's Hospice South West.

"So, um... i win a Gorilla?"

Basically, yes. however the more detailed answer is you have to be the winning bidder and you are bidding on a unique piece of art: a life size gorilla sculpture themed around Darth Vader. He comes complete with scarred face, light sabre and even talks, along with the distinctive "coosh, coosh" breathing noise. You cannot get more limited edition than this! Oh, and all the money raised goes to three charities. It's a win, win.

Agreed 8) Alas, I have a relatively small garden and no idea what i would do with a massive Darth Vader Gorilla. It sounds cool though.

Martin could do with this for his stately home :wink:
