I have never seen this Maple before and it looks poorly done. What do you folks think?

Thanks kshymkiw, the website doesn't even describe what the are doing to the maples. I look around a bit to see what else they are doing. Take a look at the cougar - wow this should be illegal.

LOL!! That cougar is truly horrible!! Still laughing!!
Yeah.. talk about beating the carp out of the poor creature.. Like it didn't have trouble enough. Is that real? Did they really color it that way?

I thought the maple was bad but I'm sure my mouth hit the ground when I saw that cougar. I'm almost tempted to buy one to actually hold it in my hand. The only problem is no one would ever buy it from me. I guess it would be the ultimate preservation of wealth. LOL!!

I actually like the maple (not enough to purchase it..) but the cougar looks like it was colored in with a sharpie. Too funny!

The Maple almost looked good until I saw the cougar - now they both look terrible.
