    My boy lollipop
    You make my heart go giddy up
    You are as sweet as candy
    You're my sugar dandy

    Special thanks to @Omegist

    Steve, sorry, but with the vintage pieces, in original condition, you have to reference the original song as well:

    Those have evolved past the lollipop stage to semaphores!

    Oh boy, that's absolutely awesome. And to give it songwise a different twist :D

    I'll take you to the candy shop
    I'll let you lick the lollipop
    Go 'head girl, don't you stop

    I don't know, but personally I am not a big fan of the lollipop hands. Especially on the 2998... *ducking for cover* :whipped:

    I'm assuming you are referring to the aesthetics of it. Taken out of the context of the rarity factor, I can see the argument that it is less appealing than a more simply-rendered hand. However, because it is so uncommon, I think it is hard to separate these things out, and then it becomes more attractive because of the desirability.

    Yes, aesthetically it just doesn't work for me.
    I understand the rareity factor. But all things being equal, I'd take a regular "needle" hand any day over a lollipop. And definitely would not pay a premium for one over a "regular" example if I were in the market for a 2998, 2913 etc...

    Here are some remakes...often the remake is not comparable to original.
