If you are up for collecting impractical memorabilia, I just saw this DC era Jarv cardboard cut out on ebay, it sounds like it's a bit battered (not in the cod sense), but the seller sounds fairly realistic about describing the condition. We already have a Londo Mollari and I nearly bought an Ood in Forbidden Planet, but saw sense. Currenlty 1 bid at 99p!

 I had a lifesize David Tennant as The Doctor but everytime I walked into the room he was in he scared me to death! I've still got him I think but he's folded up somewhere.

 I'm so jealous. It's not fair that people own things that I don't own.

So cardboard Jarv went for a mere £257 + £35 postage (unless the winner collects it). Seriously, cardboard Jarv has obviously still got it.

Seeing as these are so hard to get hold of and that I've only just realised that I need one of these in my house. Would it be possible to make our own of similar quality? Has it been done before?

They had one of the Jarvis cut-outs beside the DJ and his decks last night at the Pulp special in Islington. A lot of people got their photo taken with it. Though it wasn't as popular as the person dressed-up as Maggie Thatcher complete with Spitting Image-style mask.

I'll make a good go of it, despite my innate lack of ability at anything remotely to do with arts and crafts. Failing that, I could probably go to a local copy shop and have them construct one there. Though I am worried about the funny looks and the suspicious line of questioning I may or may not receive.

P.S. Hey! Maybe I could make both 1995 Jarvis and modern day Jarvis into cutouts and place them next to each other. It'll be just like The Loss Adjuster!

Y'know? I tell myself that I certainly won't do that, but six months down the line...

 You should definitely be a pioneer in the field of making a cardboard Jarv at home, with sticky tape and possibly while wearing a flouncy artists cape.

Why not go the extra mile and erect some sort of wire frame around which you could construct a papier mâché Jarvis?

Due to chronic laziness, I'll probably just end up nicking a mannequin from a nearby branch of John Lewis and accessorise it with a Jarvis face mask and clothes from Oxfam.

The only thing stopping me is the notion that the real Jarvis will not approve of this behaviour.

I think that, unless you turn up at his door with a mannequin dressed as him and with a cardboard Jarvis face, he'll probably not mind.

Hehe. Probably best to leave mannequin Jarvis as a pipedream then.
