Update: Tim Burton Estate Sale

via email from timburton.com

Official Word from Tim...

"It recently came to my attention that a warehouse sale, claiming to include "previously -owned" items of mine, is scheduled to take place. Allegedly, these items include props, memorabilia and costumes from various films I have directed, as well as some drawings of mine that were private gifts--never meant for public display or purchase. Since I have not been contacted by the sellers, it is important to note that I can in no way vouch for the authenticity of these items. I am completely against the selling of personal items in such a public way."

So if anyone was planning to go and possibly buy something, the items may or may not be authentic.

Ahh. Awesome. Tim Burton is amazing. I am so glad that we've finally been provided a way to contact him/someone maintaining the website directly. Well, aaaaawesome work, Burton. And all of his... helpers. Eheh. Don't mind me; I'm not normally this idiotic. Today's an... idiotic day for me. Er... Or at least a day of idiotic babbling. Sheesh, why am I so nervous? I feel like I'm talking to God. ...I apologize.

YEAH!! We took a day off work to see a bunch of crap! VERY disappointed, but at least we NOW know that it wasn't a "Tim Burton" thing.
Thanks Tim for giving us the heads up. Can wait for CATCF!!
