Realistic, and Expensive, Piranha Plant Sculpture
October 19, 2009 21 Comments
Some people would pay extra to ensure that teeth are not part of their experience. Sculptor Kalapusa is hoping there are some individuals who feel the exact opposite though. Determined to create an absolute masterpiece, he first began his ambitious project by thoroughly researching animal skin patterns, mouth anatomy, aging, and plant life. What he learned combined with five months of arduous work left him with what is arguably the most realistic interpretation of the iconic Super Mario Bros. Piranha Plant ever created. Assuming that you find the thought of owning a large, carnivorous sculpture more than a little appealing, it could potentially be yours for a starting bid of only US $1,400. If that price tag has a bit too much bite for you, there’s also a baby version available at a fraction of the cost. That one has significantly less teeth and a whole lot more gums, which we all know is more desirable anyways.
*A special thanks to TJ Fadness, who prefers women with removable dentures, for the tip!
i love it, now lets have whip round so we can all buy it
Those are some scary looking teeth!
Oh, so you actually got the tip. I was wondering why you didn’t even respond to me… :/
I did reply to your email, seven days ago as a matter of fact. I’ll forward you the response again (maybe check your spam box?). :)
Oh, really? I’ll go check it now.
Yep, they’re there. Well, it’s odd that gmail would automatically put you in my spam folder. Usually they don’t make those sort of mistakes.
Well no matter now. The story has been posted; all is well. :)
Great, now I’m compelled to go dig through the 1066 spam emails I have.
Also, correction in my previous post: “Usually it doesn’t make those sort of mistakes.”
I’ve had more than a few people tell me that my messages end up in their spam folder so I check mine every day. There’s always at least one or two a week that go in there that shouldn’t unfortunately.
Hey… Did you get that code for Brutal Legend that Gamestop sent me?
Also, Making of video here:
i remember seeing this on Youtube!
That thing is AWESOME

WHAT! Now I gotta worry about those in the Real World TOO! WHAT THE HELL BUNGIE? I mean Nintendo. Sorry, force of habit.
This is insane. First the discovery that FYE is selling Sonic gloves, and now this?
Truly this is a great age for gamers!!!
Oh man this looks like it’s going to be a big job..better go grab my Roundup..
That is amazingly disgusting. Me wants! (but not for $1400).
That is so cool. Love the detail. If i was rich id so buy it!
I love the baby one.
So innocent.
But it would still eat you if it had the chance.
Very nice.
That’s awesome. It even has texture on it, and the teeth are colored.
