Description: THIS SPECIAL LIMITED EDITION EUROPEAN IMPORT FEATURES DONALD DUCK IN A SINKING SHIP. ONLY AVAILABLE IN SELECT EUROPEAN COUNTRIES. THIS ONE WAS PURCHASED IN PARIS. This Disney statuette features Donald Duck in a sinking boat by the Netherlands company, Demons and Merveilles. It was produced and only available in select European countries. Created with vibrant colors and a pop art style, this piece looks like it stepped off the screen and into your home. The Title of this piece is "Le Naufrage" which means "The Shipwreck." Demons et Merveilles produced this vintage Donald Duck figurine in the year 2002. This pre-loved figurine is about 7 3/4" high and comes with the original box and packaging. I purchased this awesome piece one year on a trip to Paris at one of the large department stores. They had a special section with unique versions of Disney characters. And knowing that this statue wasn't available in the U.S., I snatched it up. Donald looks so funny in this picture. He has the classic "I'm not amused" look on his face as his poor boat keeps sinking into the water. In the back of the boat is a beautiful picnic basket. Was this meant for Daisy? We may never know. This sculpture was displayed for a short period, and then dusted off and packaged up in his box and stored in a closet with other Disney figures. It is in excellent condition and would make a great addition to anyone's Disney or Donald Duck collection. Two sides of the storage box appear to have faded over the years, so instead of the standard yellow/orange color, it looks more like white. This does not affect the statue inside at all. (Just pointing it out.) Here's what Demons and Merveilles says about the piece: Magnificent, vintage figurine of your favorite Walt Disney character; Donald Duck. This resin figurine shows Donald Duck sitting in a sinking boat. A magnificent collectibles for every Donald Duck enthusiast. The facial expression of Donald Duck combined with the entire figurine makes it a original addition in every interior. Here's a little about Donald Duck from Wikipedia: Donald Duck is a cartoon character created by The Walt Disney Company. Donald is an anthropomorphic white duck with a yellow-orange bill, legs, and feet. He typically wears a sailor shirt and cap with a bow tie. Donald is known for his semi-intelligible speech and his mischievous, temperamental, and pompous personality. Along with his friend Mickey Mouse, Donald was included in TV Guide's list of the 50 greatest cartoon characters of all time in 2002, and has earned a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He has appeared in more films than any other Disney character. Here's a lttle about Demons and Merveilles from their website: At Demons & Merveilles, we are collectors ourselves.
