Yes. You read that right. From the description:
This delightfully deceased taxidermy chess set is sure to get peoples attention. Every mouse was a unique creature in life, making each piece of this set a one of kind creation. Hand stuffed by me, but created by the guy upstairs (or whoever you believe created mice).
The set includes 16 light colored mice and 16 dark mice, in various sizes, pawns being the smallest. Set comes complete with wooden hand painted chess board, and storage case (not pictured)
All specimens were acquired from a captive breeding facility that distributes frozen rodents for reptile feeding, so don’t feel sad if these little guys were not battling it out on the chess board they would be deep in the belly of a snake.
Anyone else find this just a bit surreal?
I hope you talk about this in the upcoming episode of Amplified with Dan. Kinda disgusting and very wierd. It compares to hunting trophies which you just look at, but … actually playing with cadavers ??? I hope they are only lab mice. At least they don’t end up in an incincerator or trashcan. My stomach feels strange.
It’s a shame Regretsy, folded. This would have been perfect for you it!
This belongs on The Worst Things For Sale.
I like it. I can picture it as a prop in a Terry Gilliam movie.
