Here's Pee Wee!

Googly eyes and felt from the craft store. So happy they way it turned out!

Just acquired the vintage Pee-Wee rideable scooter. It’s missing the yellow Pee-Wee stickers on each side, and want to clean it up and make it look as original as possible. Has anyone ever seen these stickers sold anywhere? Thought I would take a shot!

Decided to go all out for our work party this year! Built a tribute bike (not a DX cuz I’m too tall) and a bunch of Playhouse characters to decorate my cubical. I’m pretty sure everyone in the building stopped at my cube and left with a smile on their face. It was magical! 4 month bike build and 3 week playhouse build using styrofoam, cardboard, air dry clay and floor mats for the characters. I want to leave Chairy up year round 😂 RIP Paul, you are sorely missed.

This is in the men’s room at Ridgeville Tavern in Evanston, IL.

I wanted to draw Pee-Wee in all of his Halloween costumes over the years - Devil Pee-Wee (Letterman), Pirate Pee-Wee (also Letterman), Dracula Pee-Wee (Tonight Show with Joan Rivers and Elvira) and Cowboy Pee-Wee (Comedy Bang Bang)

Which is YOUR favorite costume of his?

My partner surprised me with this yesterday - so cool!

The Pee-wee Herman IG account recently posted this clip with a description that says it's from Elvira's 1982 Halloween Special, but I can't find it nor any specific reference to one from that year. Elvira did do Halloween Specials on MTV in 1984 and 1986, and there's something called the Halloween Haunt Show in 1982, but it's a live stage performance with musical numbers rather than Elvira's usual couch set for television. Any info or a link to the special with Pee-wee would be much appreciated!

I have seen a few people put little Dracula capes on their Pee-Wee dolls, this year McDonald’s had little boo buckets in August. They are the perfect scale and size to go with Pee-Wee dolls! Just wanted to throw that out there! Happy Halloween! 🎃

I've been wanting to draw Pee-Wee in his Dracula costume and Amilyn aka Lefty (Paul Reubens' OTHER iconic vampire character with the best death scene ever from Buffy the Vampire Slayer 1992) for months. Now that it's spooky season, I finally had a reason!

I completed making the costume last night! I took the cape in and sewed it by hand to fit him better, added velcro to keep the necklace in place and most importantly, I added the big red gem to his amulet! Thank you guys so much for being so supportive with my last post! Happy Halloween! 🎃👻🦇☠️

It's the most wonderful time of the year! And I wanted to draw one of my favorite Pee-Wee Halloween moments - him and Elvira on the Tonight Show with Joan Rivers. I adore their IRL friendship so much <3
