Good news and bad news.

Bad news: I have left New York and no longer physically work across the street from Sad Panda’s stomping grounds.

Good news: HE’S BACK.

But miracles do happen, people, and as of today he has returned! And it looks like he even got himself a new set of hands.

from the Gothamist

Noticeable differences:

• Besides the hands, I think he’s now got a sign that’s leaning against the dark green cylinder, probably explaining to tourists you *should* pay to get photographed. Maybe a suggested donation.
• I don’t see a huge Duane Reade/Daffy’s bag. Sad Panda’s traveling lighter with a small pink one. *giggle*
