Paris: Where Tex Avery Fans Go When They Die

I’m still playing catchup from my Paris visit, so I’ll blog highlights of the trip in bits and pieces. Starting right now.

Here are figurines I bought–at a neighborhood video store–of the characters that the French call La Girl and Le Loupe. These aren’t those 100-euro limited-edition collectors’ items, though I saw plenty of those. No, these ones cost me about four bucks apiece.

How can you dislike a town where stuff like this is readily available for prices like that?

    Red is well sculpted, and certainly looks better than a Warner Brothers store stuffed Red I have, who looks more like a dumber, redder Marilyn Monroe. But this one seems more European and sophisticated. She looks good, just somehow jaded and as if she should be drinking in a Parisian cafe (or wearing a beret and smoking from a long holder).
