any idea when the ship will be available. I have never bought any of his pieces but have always thought about it and figured once i didn;t get in on the early pieces i missed my opportunity for a whole set.

I read around November. But don't hold your breath.

Yes, they are all out in a clear display case.

I'm not sure. He is working on Disneyland's Fantasyland at the moment. I would love for him to recreate Disneyland Paris' castle.

Hi Mike: You do realize that the Pirates "model" you saw was unfinished?

Hi ROlszewski and welcome to the DIS!

Yes, I know it was unfinished and I am sure it will be an amazing piece, but I am running out of shelf space at home. Also, the prices keep going up and up and up.

I hope you will join us for more discussions here and clue us in on upcoming art by Mr Olszewski.

Mike...

Did you see any wristwatches on display ?

Hi Joshua. I don't collect watches, or even wear one, so I did not look for the watches. I think Kevin was going to get one of the special 40th watches.

^ Some of the other merchandise looks SO cool as well !

I wonder if some of the merchandise in the link above is still available.

I was surprised to find that the page was still up six months later !

I'm not usually a huge fan of Jim Shore's work, (no offense to you Shore collectors out there...) but that "Haunted Mansion Organ Player" piece is well done, and relatively reasonably priced.

Plus, I LOVE that "From the Other Side" painting ! Shame the reprints are so small. I wonder if the $10,000 original sold ?
