I'm planning to order Fabio but figured I'd check with the board first. I saw the A's one in person and didn't think it was that great. Does anyone know how the size compares?

I personally like the Archiver's one better. I think it is because it has fewer pieces to put together. I think I am in the minority though because a lot of people seem to prefer Fabio. Fabio does seem to have more of a personality.

I like the two versions on Fabio, but I like the extra wing on the A's die. I'm kindof mad at A's at the moment so I'm going to order Fabio! I will probably end up getting the A's one at some point too, but I'm going to adopt a Fabio first!

I prefer Fabio, but the A's Flamingo is simpler to put together.
Fabio is bigger aswell.

I have to vote for Fabio. He has so much more character. I would like to have an A Flamingo too but it could never replace my Fabio. He is so worth the work. Laura. <><

Fabio by a long shot, he is just cooler to me. I have both though.

How can you not like a flamingo named Fabio? And he comes with his own Santa cap and Christmas lights! I do have both. You can never have too many flamingos.

Pamela,
I have to agree with you ...there is not such thing as too many dies.
You can't have too much paper, too many embellishments either but I always need more glue *L*

I told my husband years ago. You mess with my scrapping, and you will be eating scraps in the dog house *L*.
He is pretty cool about my purchases though, he is an artist. So he understands, but he keeps saying what more can they come out with *L*
He even scraps now. He will only tell me don't tell my coworkers *L*
I do a craft show at his place of employment during the holidays selling premade pages, books and stuff, he will work the booth with me and when people have a question and he can answer it like a person that has been scrapping for years. I just look over and laugh, saying and you don't want them them to know you scrap?. *L*

I like Fabio better but given the chance to get the other one, I'd probably get it too. But if I could only have one, I prefer Fabio!

I have both, but overall prefer Fabio, because he comes with all those fun extras. Sometimes it's a matter of assembly time that I have available, because Fabio does take longer to put together. Some things are just worth the extra time.
And I agree...no one can have too many dies!

Fabio favorite by far, love the hat and Xmas lights. And I can use them for other things. Just wish the Flamingo was smaller for cards. Once assembled, they are pretty huge but so adorable.

I love Fabio. I wish he was a little smaller so you could use him on regular cards. Archivers Flamingo looks boxy. Just like the monkey. I guess I am a little bias because I shop at Scrapbook Cottage.
I agree you can never have too many dies. ;D I need a second steady job to pay for my habit.

Just love them both.
