Country music wax figures.
Scroll down about halfway and check out the close-up of Minnie Pearl.
WARNING: Nightmare fuel!!
WTF…not only that, but at the time of my reply, there were over 40 bids, the highest over $110,000!!! Unfortunately, the researve of $750,000.00 hasn’t been met. Scary indeed.
While those wax figures are, indeed, awfully creepy, that’s not the creepiest ebay auction I’ve ever seen. No, that honor would have to go to the “Weird Gross Bra That Fell Out Of My Ceiling”.
<shudder>
And in case anyone wonders, the final selling price for that lovely gem was $103. This site shows the completed auction and some hilarious additional comments added by the seller along the way. (A note from the apparent high bidder in the feedback section says, “Thanks for the funniest auction ever!! Am I really supposed to open the box?”) I wonder if they ever did.
You know, I really could have done without all the crotch shots of the wax figures.
And Patsy Cline’s hat frightens me.
Holy flurkin shnit! Willie Nelson looks like he’s got a cannibal snarl with his super-long skinny arms and I am gonna have nightmares about that!
:eek:
They must have had different artists for the figures. Some look amazingly lifelike, others look like cartoons. And not all the clothes come with the figures!? What’s the deal with that?
Oh, sweet Mother of Christ! Is it just me, or did those figures look like the busts that forensic sculptors make to show what the long-decomposed corpse probably looked like?
And the MIDI of “Dueling Banjos” did nothing but scare me further.

Why is Buck Owens in drag?
But for me the scariest one is Kitty Wells.
I’m confused. I thought that the “Buy it Now” option went away as soon as someone placed a bid?
Oh, if I were a rich man…
That’s the entire cast of Hee Haw and then some. There are so many artistic possibilities there… Except for the Parton sisters. What I’d be doing with those is none of y’all’s damn business.
You think someone would have taken the trouble to spell some of their names correctly . . .
(And that’s not “Porter Wagoneer,” it’s Christie Todd Whitman in a suit!)
In a reserve auction, Buy it Now is available until the reserve is met.
