Where to buy a FreeBSD mascot

[da1]

Hey guys,

I was checking the web but couldn't find a place where one is able to buy a FreeBSD Beastie mascot (doll).

Does anyone know if we even have this for sale somewhere?

If it's going to be sold anywhere it'll probably be here: http://www.freebsdmall.com/cgi-bin/fm

I think they had a few in the past but it looks like they're not available anymore.

Looked there already (was the first place I checked to be honest).

Damn, did not see that one.

It look a bit ... too happy ? )

Why not license a (few) person(s) to create the toys for FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD?

Not a bad idea.

The BSD Daemon is copyrighted by Marshall Kirk McKusick. I'm sure he'll give permission to create a new one:

I would love an action figure type one, similar to the Bruce Shiniea one.

Oh man, this would be really cool. I've never been interested in buying the one off the mall... It looks a little strange.

Is anyone going to action this? I might look into this.

I would bet there is someting on thingyverse or someting.

Hehe.

This price is silly high.
Custom plush dolls are being made by handcrafters, and they usually want only pictures.
I think you should be able to find crafter in your country, both for plushes and figures.
For bigger amounts you need to know or meet some peoples.

Cheers fellow archeologists.
