Perhaps for your Fu Manchu lair, or temple or restaurant … If so, I've just noticed these as I was browsing through ebay:

Those look just like the ones they sell in the Old Garden Market in Shanghai. |

Could well be the same ones! Dan |

Thank you for the posting. Postage costs would however cause a citizens divorce here. I've been hoping to find these locally but not much luck. Have found statues of Ganesh and Vishnu though. Both 50mm tall. The hunt of Temple Lions goes on. :( |

Don't give up; I'm sure I've seen similar locally to me next to the statues you mention. Down the aisle from a heck of a lot of martial arts stuff… Maybe also at the hippy shop up the road from my home? I'll report back. Doug |

Deflatermouse, You're in NZ, right? If so, I think you're a lot closer to where they make them. To be fair, I was looking at stuff from only US sellers, like this other one here:

Yepper, found those in the mall. However, mine were the red, but with pedestal, cost almost as much as the auction with shippage. They also had them in roughly twice and 3/4 times as large, $30 USD and $60 USD respectively. Next, I'll see if they're in that hippy shop I mentioned. For game terrain, I'm hoping I'll find them even smaller. Doug Edit: You're in NZ, right? If so, I think you're a lot closer to where they make them. And, it occurs to me, the locals may be so blasé no one bothers to import… |
