I'd love to hear the explanation behind this.
I wonder if the claw vending machine had bunnies in it or squirrels, that would be my guess!
@Terry, it was a chocolate vending machine (the machine being called Chocoholic and all).
I spotted this as we were waiting to catch a lift. I looked over and saw BBB on the screen and had to take a picture of it. Unfortunately you couldn't hear the soundtrack
My 3 year old son was there and I asked him "Who's that?". He told me "Big Buck Bunny". No one else there would have realised what the animation was :-(.
This was my first 'Blender' related sighting in Sydney (aside from the couple of times I think I've seen Matt Ebb walking through the city ;-) ).
Coming soon! the Big Buck Bunny plush doll!! (Hey, I'd buy it just cuz.) :)
Well that's only slightly vague xD Nice sighting!
Love it:)
LOL! Thats Hilarious :)
I thought it was a vending machine selling claws, but instead it's just a vending machine with a claw.
What a disappointment!
lol, BBB in a claw-machine... :D
I would definitely play to watch. ...only if the money was donated to Blender Foundation.
it's the claw!!
weird.
This strangely reminds me of Toy Story.
I think Elephant's Dream would have been a better selection for a claw machine...
"Big Buck Bunny plush doll!"
BF should actually do that -- it would sell. I know I'd buy one. Possibly more than one. My kids loved BBB.
I can't say I recommend it for ED. Action figures maybe. ;-)
This takes the cake, er, claws the cake.
Now that's the weirdest sighting ever! Period.
Thank you for brightening my day up because:
1) Unexpected discovery hehe
2) In claw machine? What? Chocolate? What? lol!!!! BBF doesn't even have chocolate...
So freakin' hilarious!
Maybe big bunny should be eating chocolate instead of apple while walking around.. mmm... gotta say, I can't complain, the more people see it, the better it will be. ;D
No licensing fees, and with cheap electricity, a way to grab kids' attention, hopefully make them stay at the machine longer. I think it's a great way for a business to put this type of content to use.
Man, weird.... lol :)
