Who needs wings when you can get a Nintendo

Published by Christian at 3:09 pm

Don’t ask me to explain this one. The most I was able to figure out is that this is marble statue, possibly even a tomb. Anders Hansen used his iPhone to take the photo, among other photos of all things Spain, so I’m going to use my mad detective skills to presume the statue is located somewhere within Spanish borders.

I like Spanish angels, or the way they’re obviously portrayed. They’re keeping up with the times and having fun on modern technology – that’s definitely a Game Boy Advance SP right there, and you can check the shots after the break to verify that a Graveler appears to be gracing the screen. Perhaps he’s playing all by himself because all of his other angel friends have upgraded to DS Lites and are trading Bidoof. Or Manaphy.
