Tired of seeing pillows, throw rugs, mugs and T Shirts etc..........well hold onto you hats folks cause there's a new sherrif in town
yep, EP is heading in a whole new direction.....(unless they already headed in this direction - Mr. Vegas 74 can confirm with examples I am guessing) tah dah A must have for all of those who had to hand their switchblade into the principals office in their youth and still have a burning desire to get it back somehow I think I will order both the blue and sparkley - and clear my shelves to make way for what I am sure will be a fantasic arsenal of weaponry I say let's bring on that 'Daddy Big Boots' grenade and the 'Tulsa Rocket Launcher' Bring on the platinum plated 'Teddy 600X' series of bear traps Please note that these are made of the finest materials that money can buy and speaking of money - people you have to know that these items aren't cheap $260 non-member (did they kill the caribou for this - I am thinking that the antlers are shed yearly and the farmers collect the racks/antlers if memory serves) and $580 non-member (never really did care much for snails - why so expensive for a big snail shell?) hey - a matching shotgun and gold plated duck call would be cool - could call it 'Double Trouble' (old mac donald tune would go nicely hummed softly while waiting in the reeds for those blasted ducks to finally arrive) Great to see EP acknowledging the depressed economy and coming up with some classy affordable items (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumbsup.gif) have to go now - must work mucho overtimeo so I can afford these babies....... -------------------- |

Haha! Just when I though, finally something 'Elvis' Dennis possibly can't have... then you have them plus more similar stuff.
In a way, the knives could be considered as pretty random 'Elvis things', but in a way they kinda make sense... EP himself was a big collector of weaponory so these were bound to happen sooner or later. Quite cool I think... much cooler than about 97% of what EPE sells... especially the "graceland" knife... very freaky. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Some years ago Franklin Mint sold a full replica of one of Elvis guns. only wish I bought one then because now they are hard to get hold of and cost a ton of money now!

holy karumba Mr. Vegas 74 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/notworthy.gif)
hey, when Lorraine and I come over to put the puzzles together - can we shoot some stuff? n.b. that's one mighty big knife you've got there okay - but here's the rub you are going out to dinner with the wife and you say - hey wait a minute dear, you have a thread. then you go and rummage around in your trunk of your car for the elvis knife (display won't fit in the glove compartment) have to carefully pry off the backing of the display casing to retrieve the knife cut the thread and then try to put the display back together 'honey, does this knife look centered to you?' then there's always that little spec of white that seems to get on the velvet no matter how careful you are........ I'm gonna guess that no matter how sharp that baby is - it's not going to be used to widdle sticks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) -------------------- |
