Flavio

My friend Frank Buonocore who I grew up with back in Jersey (and where I get the name Mr. Frank) is a musician and way back in the day we used to jam together as a band called Bud Syndrome. Nothing too amazing but we had fun.

Over the years we lost touch but recently, we started emailing back and forth and whattayaknow? He came up with song based on Flavio!

I like it so much I want to see if I can somehow use a bit of it in the film! Probably a bit of the chorus for the title cards, which of course also means there’s not gonna be much of it there but I’d like to find some spot for it if the Powers That Be will allow it of course.

Anyway check it out HERE!

The lyrics are below! I hope you dig it too!

First off thank you for all the wonderful comments on my Flavio toy! I really appreciate them all!

Above is some of the materials I used to make this and other Bendanimals.

I guess I got a lil’ too much time on my hands and when that happens I start to make stuff. Sometimes it’s music, sometimes it’s a cartoon and sometimes I make toys.

For lack of something better to do, and inspired by Eric Robles’ maquette, I decided to make a Flavio toy just for the heck of it.

As we really didn’t have a lot of money growing up, my mom showed me a way to make my own toys. I have made quite a few of these over the years and I call them Bendanimals.

As you can see Flavio is more or less poseable due to the armature inside him. He’s sort of a crossbreed between a stuffed animal and a bendable toy.

I hope you like it!
