New gilligan project

[mchale]

Hello i'm going to modifie my real ss minnow to make the one from the new adventures of gilligan ,and also the spaceship from the other gilligan cartoon series gilligan's planet. I lost my passwords for mediafire and photobucket . I wrote them on a piece of paper and lost it while moving my stuff to my house.

Very Cool! Can't wait to see them
But make sure you dont release them until you have permission from Warner Brothers. When I made my Minnow, I contacted Bob Denver and asked if he was interested in selling the model on his website. He loved the model and had me make one for the Professor and one for him. But even he couldnt sell them until I had gotten permission from Marketing at Warner Brothers. Let me tell you that was a pain in the A**.

Holy crap why didn't they just build a ship out of bamboo and sail off the island for pete's sake!?!?!

I think they were having too much fun from week to week to want to "escape"...besides...look how many "famous people" they got to meet over the years!! ;)

I asked Bob that before he passed away.

He said If you were stranded on an island with Ginger and Maryanne would you want to get rescued?

He gave the model away ;) the autograph was expensive though!

actually he sold them for about 15$ w/ autograph
