I'm wondering if this picture is rare at all...

At least I haven't seen that picture in our wiki about merchandise.

I've seen this in French eBay once so it isn't super rare for me. It is still rare as a merchandising item anyway.

It is for me! I didn't know it existed and I've always wanted something like that since I was little! All I know is I want one now :shock:

I wonder what it originally came with (as in if it was a pre-order bonus, a fast food meal toy etc.) or if it's just random merchandise...

He seems to be enjoying himself though. And... what's that gesture he's making? He's inviting us in as well? Don't mind if I do!

Thank you very much, Britta!

I knew one of the E3 2000 photos, but the others not. I agree that the costume looks creepy. :lol:

A photo like the Rayman 2: The Great Escape section of the expo is rare nowadays.

It's even creepier because it's the R1 design, does anyone think Michel Ancel is in that costume and he got up on stage and did a little jig for the audience? Too bad we didn't have live streaming of E3 back then...hmmmf.

Haha wow is that like the second official costume there ever has been? I remember the other one being used in events before 2000 ie this one in San Francisco in 1999?

Props to the brave soul on giantbomb who uploaded these.

Edit: actually, forget the costumes, that hanging giant figure from the E3 2000 booth HHHHHHHHHNNNNNNGGGGG

Jesus fucking Christ. :o

Why can no official source ever seem to be able to create a somewhat decent costume/plush for anything?

That costume looks ... Creepy. I wouldn't like to meet anyone in that one.
Thanks to that link, I finally know what the 'Ubi' part in Ubisoft's name means...
For those who don't, it means 'ubiquitous'. In other words, 'omnipresent'. Why did this remind me of their DRM..?
