As a follow-up to my
interview with urban miniaturist Alan Wolfson, I found this Travis Bickle action figure.
Big Red MoonYou could get one like it
via ebay for as little as $400 if you're a lucky bidder. It was made in very limited numbers by a Japanese company called CRM Toys.
ebayJust think of all the fun you could have with this guy in Wolfson's miniature city.
You know, if you wanted to stay home and never go out there, pull down the shades, order lots of pizza. That sort of thing.
Alan Wolfson, St. George Hotel, 1994
