Arthur in Real Life

I have a lot of pictures to share with you guys sent in during the last week or two. But we'll start off with the pics sent in by Sheldonista Leslie P...
Leslie's a new reader to "Sheldon", but after plowing through the archives in record time, she decided she needed to make her own plush Arthur, and all his little outfits to match.
Here he is writing a letter, perhaps to God...
Here he is, sitting up on his famous lamp...

And here he is in superhero mode, dressed up as his alter-ego "The Duck"...

And, in a shot that I almost overlooked, here he is Googling "horses beggars wishes" like he did in this strip...

Leslie, you are awesome. Thank you so much for these pics.

Oh. My. Gosh. Hire Leslie or pay her a million dollars and make lots of little Arthurs for me to buy. I would take a few dozen myself!

I guess, I should have realized Arthur was a yellow duck, but the shading on the Sunday strips is so subtle, I guess I wasn't cognizant of the color. Besides, I'm pretty sure the original Arthur was white, wasn't he? Or am I going senile?

Leslie reminds me of this link to a Boing Boing post about a wiki-esque collection of Far Side fans posting Flickr photo re-enactments of Far Side cartoons: http://www.boingboing.net/2008/12/31/far-side-reen actment.html
