I suppose this shouldn’t be surprising considering how adorable this bird is as a logo, but the Twitterific logo is being released as a four-inch vinyl figure available to purchase. Ollie the Twitterific Bird was created by David Lanham, Icon Factory and Strangekiss Art Toys.
Ollie the Twitterific Bird isn’t for sale just yet, but for the name alone it deserves some love, not to mention how cute it is. Interesting to see a logo be embraced as a toy, but the Twitter machine is one that isn’t to be stopped. Take a look and “aww” at Ollie above.
