I just checked out "Pikey" to see what it means (we hear it over here in North
America but lack the cultural context), and can assure you that it's not the
racial overtones that I found funny. It was the juxtaposition of that graphic
where you had meant for another to appear that was the nature of my joke.
I could have just as easily said:

"The 'Piss Off Ben' statue looks great. When's it coming out?"

Nothing personal.

To the idea of hand-question-marking the riddler's getup: I wonder if
transfer film would work on these statues? (ALS or other kinds like
moldellers use to print custom graphics.) One could print up some typeset
question marks in Illustrator, print them out, et voila!

(Wondering because my fine motor control like that is awful, and the
question marks in question would end up looking like hell if I did them by
hand.)

Maybe the Question (no pun intended) as to why "?" are not all over the suit has been answered......imagine trying to mass produce 1000 plus figurines each with over 20 hand painted "?" marks on them - safe option is to go without me thinks.

 

 

I'm not sorry, the images are not on my site, so what have I to be sorry for?

like I say get the facts straight then all will be well and calm will ensue once more.

It's also possible they were trying to avoid confusion with Mathew Lesko


you may see him on TV screaming about free money.  I see him walking around DC all the time and driving his question mark VW bug.  He is on TV enough that my niece and nephew, 4 and 6 at the time, recognized the car when they were here visiting from FL.
