This is an odd little figure I found at a garage sale. Ive no clue who made it but wondered is there a story behind it. This was one of a few figures of animal women sitting in shoes (she was the cutest of the bunch).
A tiny interweb search yielded this, http://cgi.ebay.com/Fancy-Giraffe-i.....206185007r3216
Weird huh!

The two figures may have similar imagery, but when I look at the details they don't seem so similar.
Specifically, the one on eBay appears to be more like a doll fitted to a real shoe. The one you posted here on FA looks more like a single-piece build or casting. (For a one-only item, I'd think build.) I'd say different artists with the same crazy idea.
How thoroughly have you examined your figurine?

See, the thing is it is the same character wearing the exact same dress. Probably different artists doing the same character or the same artist trying different styles. The ebay item is a doll, this one is a figurine. The fact they are wearing the same dress and are both giraffes sitting in a shoe screams they are based off of something, some character seen somewhere, possibly an advertisement.
