Cool one!

The only one that is more outlandish is the boomerang, which is somehow always priced really crazy.

Hello morzh,
this one here is starting to get pricey to.
This set will need some cabinet work since I bought with a damaged cabinet .

I have one if these in Turquoise, with a big crack in the top. I bought it that way 40 years ago for $2. It looks great on a high shelf!
