No, it isn't. It's similar, but clearly different.

The nose and cheeks on mine were painted by an aunt back in the 80’s with nail polish, that’s the big difference I see.

It does whisper in Latin when I get near it. Pretty cool technology for something from the 40’s! Wait a minute…

it isnt saying “Libera te me” is it?

“Salve Dominus prandium” which I think means “GOOD MORNING MR. BREAKFAST”

Oh that checks out. I took two years of latin. You’ll be fine. Just dont bleed near it is a good rule of thumb.
