Bling your Holga or go home.

Hmmm...designer Holgas. Just seems unholgy to me. Perhaps we need to customize the appearance of our Holgas and post the results here.

Meh.
Where are the gold-encrusted, jewel-covered, mink-accented, celebrity designed, fashion label branded Holgas?
If a Holga doesn't have the mark of Gucci, has more bling than a successful pimp and costs an arm, leg and a testicle, then I'm not interested.
Of course, the plastic lens stays...

I custom painted my own with color shifting paint. Nothing like turning garage sale garbage into BLING!

Actually I think those have been done up by Freestyle's employees. They're sitting in a glass case at their Hollywood (sorry, Holgawood) store.

I painted mine with blue nail polish. Still have some nail polish left over so we can go out matching occasionally.

I like the one with what appears to be a LF lens board on the front. I wonder, did they bust out the glass on the Kodak lens and put in some crappy plastic lens in its place?
