On my phone you just have to click on the Multi Quote button ("MQ") and then hit the post to thread button even if you only have one quote.

Does the possessor of this kind of item typically acquire it without paying for it, at least directly?

This question is a trap to upset OhLook with my answer!

I preface the answer(s) with the comment that I am a chemist.

Yes .. in the broadest sense of a plastic.
No .. in normal life you might not necessarily describe this as being a plastic.
Partly ... there is another material also present.

Take your pick!

I am wondering just how misleading you are being by saying in "the broadest sense of a plastic" this item is? For example even concrete is considered plastic during a period of its transformation into a hardened solid. Could this be a concrete or other similar plaster type substance statue? Something made out of the material a garden gnome would be made from, or something like that.

That looks like a full, informed and honest answer to me. Caveat reader!

Is the person being represented someone with an identity, by which I mean
Old father time, The pied piper, The Green Man...
rather than a generic such as
some random shepherd, mariner, old hag... ?
