ISO miniature Yosef statue...?
I know they exist, as I have seen the rare one from time to time, but I am searching for a mini Yosef statue for my office. The mini statue I'm referring to is the one that they have right there on the corner of River Street and Stadium Drive. I'm having a really hard time finding one, as they aren't commonly sought after, nor are they as easy to find as Tarhole gear or EC-Yew gear, but I was hoping I might be able to find a lead through all of you fine folks!
Has anyone seen these before? Seen them for sale in one particular place or another? If anybody has any leads or is able to share any information or tips, I'd be super grateful!
Go 'Neers!

Touchdown YOSEF? We got ours a couple of year ago at Appalachian Sportswear in downtown Boone = 601 W King St, Boone, NC 28607. The same people that own Appalachian Tees run it.

I've never seen one for sale anywhere in the last couple years, I've been looking for one as well. Even on King st. If you find one somewhere, please let us know!

I got ours last summer at the "We're Good Sports" sports memorabilia shop on Main St. in Blowing Rock. It was $99. If they dont have any, many they could order?

Found it. However, says they're out of stock. Could be worth sending a message to them, 8993.JGthatsme86 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 17, 2018 10:48 amI got ours last summer at the "We're Good Sports" sports memorabilia shop on Main St. in Blowing Rock. It was $99. If they dont have any, many they could order?

My eyes aren't what they used to be. I read the price you paid as $.99. My bad.

Re: ISO miniature Yosef statue...?
I just talked with a nice lady at Appalachian Sportswear (828-268-1110) this morning. They do not currently have any YOSEF statues in stock right now, but said they would order 4 of them today. They should be in the store in about 2 weeks she said. We love ours.

Re: ISO miniature Yosef statue...?
I have this one and it's a great little Yosef! I actually received the first one with a broken off hand and they (Balfour) immediately (and kindly) sent out a free replacement with no expectation of returning the broken one, so I have 2...one in perfect shape and one with a missing hand. Haven't figured out what to do with that one yet.87ASUgrad wrote: ↑Wed Nov 11, 2020 4:09 pmIf anyone is still looking for the miniature YOSEF statue I found a smaller 8" version online today.

Re: ISO miniature Yosef statue...?
Did you get any ideas for your Yosef with a missing hand? Perhaps you could artfully attach a mini flag pole and App flag in some fashion to give it a new life and cover the blemish. I would think a hobby store could assist with attachment ideas once the right flag is found for use. Let us know or place a pic if something works out.HkyMtneer wrote: ↑Wed Nov 11, 2020 7:00 pmI have this one and it's a great little Yosef!

I’ve always wanted to weld a Kentucky long rifle to the big statue on campus.

Re: ISO miniature Yosef statue...?
Nope...still haven't figured it out. We've had a busy few months with buying a new place and moving and both the Yosefs still boxed. I'm sure I'll get around to unboxing them in the next month and my gut says that the broken hand Yosef is going to end up in a garden/planter in some capacity...APPChad90 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 27, 2021 2:49 pmDid you get any ideas for your Yosef with a missing hand?
