and it’s not just the s-e-e-d-l-i-n-g-s !!
EHAH’S figurines have the same rounded out features – just not quite that rounded out !! as the WALL-E ‘B&L’ space tourists – with their atrophied limbs !!
(p.s. . . . if you’ve ever received one of those telephone book sized, whole forest decimating – camera product ‘catalogs’ – in the mail – unsolicted – from NYC’S B&H – you might think .. well, that’s where they got B&L from… how far off a bet – is that, I wonder ?)
