apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

oh no, no, no!

love the idea of a movable base...but this is too much like the "leg" lamp from the movie A Christmas Story.

Actually, I'd rather have the movie's lamp.

I always appreciate a little humor in everyday objects.

A lamp that sits spread-eagle on your table...

Classy.

He looks extremely versatile. He would be dinner company AND mood lighting. Could get cozy on the couch next to him and allow his soft warm glow to comfort you during a scary movie. Or cuddle up with your mannequin lamp in bed for a reading light. im sold

hmm i just started to wonder, any idea where the cord comes out?

My first thought was, "They killed C3PO!"

This lamp is so cheesy-looking. I could possibly appreciate the humor in it (the old drunk-wearing-a-lampshade-as-a-hat gag) if it were not done in shiny gold and black.

gold = hideous

gold is coming back.

Are their arms permanently stuck up the lampshade? As in, they spend all of eternity as if in a too-tight sweater they can't get off? Poor lamps. That's just wrong.

Why not just stick a lightbulb on your RealDoll?

omg that is creepyyyy

wait, they're LIFE SIZED? that's messed up.

The one in the chair looks like they're about to "flashdance".

But seriously, they stink.

Frankly, they kind of scare me a little!

I agree that a lamp with a moveable base is a great idea, but not this one. This looks too much like a tacky novelty gift you would purchase at Spencer's Gifts. Besides, gold plated? To match the 1980's black acrylic and gold mirrored bedroom set? Noooooo, thanks.

These comments are hilarious!!

I thought the one on the table looked like it would be at home in a ob/gyn waiting room.

I thought I was looking at perhaps 18 inch high lamps..maybe 24. Life sized? Sorry, I voted Hot, but they are definitely NOT. It's odd, but these seem to stir up visceral reactions. I could imagine waking up in the middle of the night to find these genderless lamps cavorting in the livingroom. Or planning to attack me.

"Gold is coming back"

NOT in my house!

Just looking at these things gave me an automatic Simpson-esque shiver.

Wow, I can't imagine these in anything smaller than a huge empty loft. In the small rooms of my house, they would be obtrusive, kitsch and really out of place.

I'd do one in a large space.

Creepy.

I think they're funny! They remind me of the wooden artist models. I like the lamp-man in the picture hitting his head against the wall, don't we all feel that way sometimes?
