dot dot dash!
now, normally im not so big on books on toys. my personal rationale being that you could see them for "free" online or already in toy-mags like our local hero; Playtimes or in full glossy glory in Clutter and Hi Fructose et al (yes, i am a cheapskate :p) ... and most times tis a page spread of a singular toy-shelf vinyl ... but Dot Dot Dash! is "different" ...

am really appreciating the outdoor / interaction with the "realworld" quite a lot tho (very flickr! LOL) and sometimes it's nice to have a sense of "scale" to balance out the vinylness of the toy, IMHO (*heh* :p)
"Dot Dot Dash! is brought to you by the editors of Pictoplasma and Pictoplasma 2. Expanding on the widely popular subject of contemporary character design, this definitive volume showcases an up-to-date survey of the personalities and characters that have entered the third dimension." [via]
measuring 24X30cm @ 296 pages and hardcovered, i'll be looking out for this at Basheer's (before i make my final judgement) then = *good stuff this*
