Just found this on Ebay

 

 

Here's a very special auction item for you to bid for on Creative Review's last day of Comic Relief fundraising: director Dougal Wilson has kindly donated one of the puppets from his brilliant, Grammy award-nominated video for Coldplay's single Life in Technicolour II...

 

The puppet is an Indian musician who accompanies Coldplay on a santoor (a trapezoid-shaped hammered dulcimer) while they perform as puppets to a crowd of confused children during Heswall Village Fête. Shown above is a picture of the puppet, and below is a still from the video that shows him with the band.

 

The puppet is a modified vintage Pelham puppet, redesigned by the video's award-winning art director Andy Kelly, and equally award-winning costume designer Michelle May.

 

This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to own some unique Coldplay ephemera (the band themselves have their own puppet figures, so this is as close to a member of the 'puppet band' as you're likely to get).

 

95% of sale to Comic Relief, 5% to cover shipping (if there is any surplus we will donate that too!)

 

:awesome:

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:bomb:

 

and it's a charity listing, too

 

edit: I think we should inform the girl that got the auto harp in the auction, this would look very nice sitting next to it. :wacky:

 

:cool:

 

edit: only for 8 minutes and 40 seconds, that was fun while it lasted

I want the coldplay puppets!

I want that puppet with the builder's backside

D'aw, he's adorable. A little creepy, but adorable.

 

I love those puppets. :wacky:

I'd like the Will puppet but I have a feeling that one will never show up on ebay :|

You mean plumbers crack:D

They should be auctioning off one of the band members' puppets. :disappointed:

Even if they were damaged, it's a bit more memorable, do you know what I mean? :thinking:

 

Anyways, I always think it's wonderful when the band donates things to charity auctions. :wacky:

didn't they lose them in south america?

I thought they were just falling apart and broken? :thinking:

 

I don't know though, it's been about a year since I've even thought of it. :P

Puppets are creepy, I wouldn't even want the Chris puppet.

My Barbie wants them all...in a hundred different ways....:sneaky:

So, any guesses as to how high this will get by Wednesday? It's currently at £155.

I say £700

still at £155

still at £155

 

I'm so tempted to place a higher bid!

Sold for £360!

Wow, that went up quite a bit! I looked at it when there was 10 hours left, and it was still at £155 at that point.

 

Wait... did you get it Natascha?

It's safe to say that this little dude stays with the Coldplaying family ! I just adopted him. :D

 

I'll be in London next week, and will pick him up in person so wait for series of pictures and a little documentary of us travelling with the little guy in tubes of London!

 

now..we should name him!
