In Soviet Russia, Dragon Uses eBay to Buy You

DSC00218I’m allergic to “cute”, but the little fellow to the right doesn’t read that way. (Not cute; much fierce!) He was a steal on eBay, and came to me all the way from the former Soviet Union. This is the kind of global economy I can get behind: buying a one-of-a-kind item from the opposite side of the globe. (Don’t worry; I still support local dragon-sculptors whenever I can.)

He showed up in an actual, literal brown paper package tied up with string, too. More pictures after the cut.
