    I'm not really sure if it's made of vinyl, on the bottom of the product page it says "resin cast" and at the top "vinyl toy". Anyway I would have loved to get this, but it's quite a bit above my price range.

    McBess uses a lot of R's in his graphic work. I think it referes to R2 - Rock & Roll.

    Compared with the Viandardes, this tattooed version is kinda "pittyful" imo :D

    It's funny that the extra tattoos (what started out as a "gift" for collectors from McBess because they were running late on delivering these Mermaids) became something that people wished they wouldn't receive :D
    The hard fact of great idea, bad execution :D

    @kittykittymeow666 Ofcourse there are and it wasn't my intention to speak for every one :-) Sorry if it seemed that way. It just feels like a common opinion when I bring up the tatted version of the Mermaid. And there is a difference of wanting someting because of the visual appeal or the "exclusivity". (read the Viandardes comments for that :-D )
    If you're going for the exclusivity, there was told that there would be 5 pieces with tattoos, but I know already of 3 people in a radius of 20km of where I live that have a tatted version (they know McBess personally), so I'm guessing there are a lot more than just 5.
