Hotel commissions dinosaur figurines in the style of Dr. Seuss characters.


Yeah, let that one sink in for a minute.

The Best Western Denver Southwest rebranded and remodeled itself in the theme of dinosaurs--because nothing evokes images of a comfy hotel stay like the piercing jagged edges of a stegosaurus.

So the hotel asked custom toy designer Sillof (not his real name, but he's like the Cher or Madonna of plastic figurines) to design plastic toys that combined all relaxing appeal of Jurassic Park with Dr. Seuss characters.

What you get is this:






Now imagine Cindy Lou Who running for her life while the Grinch tries to devour her. Really puts a new spin on the Christmas tidings.
