I wonder how long it’ll be before it’s back to that familiar green patina color. Just seems strange the color it is now

Is there any way to buy a mini version of the statue? Wanting to buy one as a joke for a friend

Yes it does. Never understood why they couldn’t just put him higher up on the shell

Worcester wares sells a magnet and other TB paraphernalia. I bet if there was enough demand they could find a vendor to make mini statues.

Its actual name is the Burnside Fountain and there's actually a sad story about the sculptor,who heard voices telling him to kill himself. On Wikipedia at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burnside_Fountain#%22Turtle_Boy%22?wprov=sfla1
