Updated Bunny on the tail, added bunny onto both front doors and added coffee cup with an upside-down bunny logo
In the early 1970s, Playboy Enterprises founder Hugh Hefner took the world by storm when he purchased a custom-made DC9-30 jet for $5.5 million from McDonnell Douglas, (spending another million on renovations), which served as both his Playboy Mansion and corporate office at 35,000 feet.
Hefner sold the plane to Venezuela Airlines in 1975, who later sold it to Aeromexico. Stripped of its luxury appointments, it served as a commercial aircraft until 2004, when Aeromexico put it in storage. But in 2008, it returned to service; the fuselage was donated to a park in Queretaro, Mexico, where the onetime symbol of aviation hedonism found new purpose as a children's educational tool.
The company, now known as PLBY Group, recently announced a new $12 million purchase of a Bombardier Inc model BD-700-1A10. According to an April 1 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the aircraft will serve as a marketing vehicle for the company's consumer product lines, including its upcoming Big Bunny lifestyle brand.
Here is my simple livery in their distinctive all black with the iconic white bunny.

When I saw the Hotel/Casino strip in the thumbnails, I was totally pumped somebody remembered the Playboy Casino along the Boardwalk in Atlantic City. Then I discovered it was Vegas scenery instead. Sorry but the electric kool aid days of Las Vegas are bit too OCD, drug induced. Howard Hughes was a perverted genius as well, but Heffner had way more charm. I will take the subtle charm of a Playbunny waitress any decade. Just like Heffner's women would laugh off him giving the VD due to to his crushed velvet smoking jacket. Think of how they died, Heff in his 90's with his bunnies grotto and mansion or like Hughes who lived out the last decade of his life as a total prisoner of his mental illness. Just FYI, Playboy's Casino had no problem finding a new owner despite some very phallic architecture... expect it was "Picasso"ed just enough for the tasteful pervert to realize it was made wide and flat and its all about the sillououette. Check out it out sometime.
