Another year and New York Comic Con has come and gone. This year I had planned to actually attend NYCC, but after my poor planning and limited finances I decided that there were a lot more things I could spend my money on.

This for me is all to do with me personal love of the original Robocop. I am a huge fan and ordered this on days one. After the second delay of this I questioned why as I bothering to wait and was very close to cancelling due to the wait. I then saw these photographs and I see that Jerry love for Rocobop has shone through and I am very happy I did not cancel in haste. Come on January 2016…

Now this piece blew me away. I love the details all over this statue, from Medusa herself, to the soldier turned to stone and the second soldier trying to escape. I had my finger over the ordered button and with the money already in my PayPal from sales around that time I am really surprised I did not place the order. This will upset some collectors, but to me I think this is better than the original.

Now I feel that PCS Cammy just missed the mark. The pose looks really awkward and was not well received with collectors. Almost looking like she is struggling to stand or had slipped on something, but PCS have done the right thing and sent out an email a few days ago to say that they are going to go back and revise the base and pose.

Now remember I was not at the show and I am only going by the photos I have seen. This is all just my opinion and how I feel, but it does not mean you will feel the same way.

I was born in 1985 so as I was young a huge influence to my childhood was the original transformers cartoon, He-man, Thunder cats and GI-Joe. When I Got a little older The X-men animated series came out and I was instantly hooked. It only came on Saturday mornings so I discovered comic book stores and comic books to hold my interest in between shows. There my love of comics and Statues materialized. I bought my first statue which was a Moore sentinel series Gambit that took months to save up for. We lived in a bad area I was 70lb and looked like Harry Potter so I didn’t go out and play much. I’d stay in and draw and play with my action figures. I used artists like Jim Lee, Andy Kubert and Michael Turner to learn from and I am 100% self-taught. I was just a kid in the basement with his comic books and dream, lol.

I saw others working on and customizing statues so decided, I could do that. I started off small as I was scared to start chopping up and potentially ruining something so expensive. That quickly subsided; I showed my work and started getting commissions.  I am now currently booked almost a full year out.

I also do custom Metal work, claws, swords, etc. This has become a secondary commission platform. However I handle my commissions differently from most and also will not work with everyone. The time I have to work on these projects is quite limited considering the nature of my actual career so I do pick and choose the people and projects I take on. It’s been fun and I see improvements with each piece so far. Therefore I believe everything is going well  I think is been 3-4 years since I first started statue work, So there is still a lot to learn which is the part I most I look forward to.

I started out on StatueForum, then made a YouTube channel and later made a Facebook page. I’ve worked for a few different license holding companies. Notable recently I won XM studios Design a statue contest for She Hulk.

I designed a few other pieces I can’t really discuss at the moment and am currently working on 2 paint masters/prototypes among the wait list of other commissions. I also have a FaceBook group geared towards other painters and customizers. If you go there please read the pinned post, it’s kind of the mission statement. Link Below

This changes a lot but currently did a complete overhaul of the SS Red Sonja PF, including lots of mixed media and metal work all scratch built which was a challenge and very fun. It also showcases sewing, tailoring, fabrication as well as a style of painting I hadn’t done before. I like being able to do whatever a job calls for. Mixed media options and being versatile style wise I think is my best attribute.

I’d give it to Lion-O, because he has an inside man. Also battlecat has to got to be lion-o’s 3rd cousin twice removed or something.

Interest for Mephesto Statue

Leave a comment

[av_one_half first]

[av_textblock size=” font_color=” color=”]
While I was chatting to the owner of Imaginarium Art (IA) the other day we spoke about the licences they held and one of the names was Mephesto. Now I am a huge Silver Surfer fan and Mephesto was one of his earliest villains.

So I am really excited about this news, but is there enough love and popularity for the character to warrant IA making one?

I have always been a fan of the 1/6 statue by Bowen Designs, but for my collection it was always a bit too small.
[/av_textblock]

[/av_one_half][av_textblock size=” font_color=” color=”]
I have been told that IA has the licence to make this piece in a few scales.

What scale would you like to see this piece in?

Throne, standing museum or dynamic?

Let me know your ideas.

Imaginarium Art (IA) released their 1/4 huge Hulkbuster  for pre-order last week and it pretty much sold out in the first 24 hours.

So IA did not need to throw in any extras.

But fan asked for a Switch out Jack Hammer hand and what does IA do?

They delivered!

Imaginarium Art making Galactus

Everyone now knows that Imaginarium Art (IA) is not shy about making statues of huge proportions. Their Aquaman was gigantic (96 cm to the top of the trident) and then their Hulkbuster is a total beast (80cm to the highest point), but now they’re making a character that there is no doubt ever that he should be made as big as possible.

Lets us give you some background on the creator of my favorite Hero (the Silver Surfer).. Ladies and gentlemen we give you Galactus!!!

Back in around 2010-11 Giorgio Comolo was commissioned to produce some artwork of Galactus. While they were not to be used in any comic book, I have been seeing them all over comic forums for the past few years with fans trying to find out which story the artwork related to. Then more recently on statue collectors groups since the increased popularity of the throne pieces, suggesting this would make an epic piece.

So I have to say I was delighted when I received a message from my friend Danny Lim asking if I knew anymore information about the artwork. I was able to tell Danny all I knew and got in touch with Giorgio to introduce them.

The artwork seems to depict Galactus with an Aztec style to him. Almost looking like he is actually a statue of worship, but I believe it is Galactus in more of a hibernation state. Awaiting to be awoken.

IA have said that the piece will be around 80cms to the highest point. If this is like any of the previous pieces I have seen of theirs it will be solid and weigh a ton. You will honestly need to set aside a corner of your collection room for this badboy.

From the interest already on social media I believe this will sellout quick just like their Hulkbuster which pretty much sold out of it’s 500 edition size it 2 days of pre-orders going live.

[av_textblock size=” font_color=” color=”]
So what should IA do to make this statue special?

I believe that IA should stick to the design with the Artwork, but add the iconic Galactus purple and pink colors to it. Make it  battle damaged and worn over the years of slumber. I also think the IA should work with the Artist to product a print to go with the statue. I do not think it should be an ‘exclusive’, but that the print should go will all of the sold pieces.

From what I can see it will look like IA will stick to an edition size of 500. This is the Edition size of their Aquaman and of their Hulkbuster (who I honestly believe they could have made double of these).

As much as I would love to see an ‘exclusive’ small silver surfer to go with this or a collection of the Heralds of Galactus I feel that every time these have been attempted they have come out really tacky looking (Sideshow Maquette and Sideshow Legendary Scale Bust).

If you have any ideas to what could be done to make this extra epic send an Email to Alex@raddtitan.com (subject Galactus) and I can pass it on to IA.

Radd Titan Face/Off-Sabretooth

[av_textblock size=” font_color=” color=”]
Geoman here!!!

So peeps we are going to start a ‘piece vs piece’ or ‘classic vs modern’ or even ‘old vs new’.

No matter how long you have been in the collecting game you will eventually come across a common conversation about the old school (giving a shit) Sideshow era vs the corporate powerhouse that now doesn’t care about its people or the collector Sideshow (not what I agree with, but a common and boring conversation now)

Whatever your flavour opinions are like arseholes and we all have them!!!

We plan to use this page as a comparison of not only Sideshow, but all companies pieces, character choices and preferences of where your/our money should go (obviously we will throw our two-pence in too lol)

I will be starting this debate on the recent Sideshow variant game, whether it’s a genius money making scheme or them being lazy bastards. There is no denying this is no flash in the pan and we have had numerous characters revisited, revamped, redone basically and some only subtly in some cases.
Anyway on with the character in question!!!

Sabretooth aka Victor Creed is a super-villain from Marvel comics and X-Men fame and the arch nemesis of the fan favourite, Wolverine.

One of my favourite villains of all time being that he is not only in touch with his animal instincts but he actually welcomes the savagery as opposed to Wolverine’s more suppressed beast in the basement.

I think my favourite part of this characters history is the fact he kills a loved one of Wolverine’s every year on his birthday. (Who writes this class)

Back on track!!!

[av_textblock size=” font_color=” color=”]
The original piece released by Sideshow was not without its faults or criticism as we all know pyjama gate?!?

The body although big and powerful (more like open season comic) was underwhelming due to its lack of muscular definition we have all come to expect from Sabretooth!!

I love the face sculpt and paint on the regular edition and for me it can’t be topped and the sculpting on the gloves is masterfully executed from Sideshows gore group!

The base is fantastic and the animal wolverine skull and maple leaves scattered on the Canadian mountains is a great touch!!

Oh and the gold print underneath the base  is one of the best I have seen too lol!!

So to be honest I love the original and score it a good 7.5 out of 10 overall!!

Now for the new one…..

For a start its smaller!!!
How you ask as its practically the same sculpt?

Well I am going with a smaller base and a slight change of angles!!

I love the heads sculpts but that’s a dead heat as there near enough identical to the original exclusive!!

I love the snowy base but not more than the original so deduction there then!

I love the body sculpt more but I still feel he is not vascular enough or as shredded as I wanted plus the Pom Pom uniform was never my favourite!!

The claws on the hands are amazing but what the fu%# happened to his feet?!?!!

Is it their position and shape or those nails? I don’t know but wow I am not a fan!!

With an addition size of 750 for the ex this piece feels like a test the water moment as the original does not go up much in price on the secondary market and is not considered a masterpiece by any means!!

[av_textblock size=” font_color=” color=”]
Verdict…..

If you haven’t guessed by now I am sticking with the original which is a shame as I am buying the brown wolverine which is the counter part of this new Sabretooth!!

Was it the base? No!
The feet I hear you ask? Ummm no!
It was the lack of significant change! No real switch outs or improvements on the body sculpt or base plus that uniform and limited chance of major re sale profit…….. Easy pass I afraid!!

Let’s hope I am not wrong…. Again!!

Peace

Over at Radd Titan we was given this news last week, but promised we would keep our lips sealed till more information came out (hard to do), but now the cat is out the bag we can share what we know.

So at the  Zbrush summit 2015 conference images were shown of an Alien design Sideshow have been working on.

They did not give any information to the scale, but over at Radd Titan we know 🙂

The pose shown is called the “Jesus pose of Big Chap”. It is from H R Giger artwork and has his typically look to the alien figure and the base. With the typical pipes and mech detailing.

Radd Titan the piece would have been a Legendary Scale Figure and will be in scale with their Wolf Predator.

Normally LSF means 1/2 scale, but looking back to the Wolf remember this was a small 1/3 (but the Alien and Predator characters are a lot bigger than humans), but we are sorry to say but looking like this will be 1/5

So could still be in an affordable price range

We were also told that Sideshow are working on a new Predator (original) LSF and that too will be 1/3. But will coolprops and possibly Prime1 getting the Predator licence. Do I want to gamble my money on Showshow?

Imaginarium Art have been making an appearance a lot lately on social media firstly with their epic Aquaman on throne piece. Which totally blew us at Radd Titan away when we reviewed this in person. Then more recently at the STGCC 2015 with there huge and amazing Hulkbuster from the Avengers:Age of Ultron movie.

Imaginarium Art do not play games when it come to the size of their pieces. Aquaman (Length 58cm x Width 55cm x Height 96cm With Trident) or Hulkbuster (Length 75cm x Width 65cm x Height 80cm). So it is no surprise to us that Imaginarium Art have announced their 1/3 DC line. Not only do fans get this great new, but to top it of IA are working with Erick Sosa on these pieces.

We are really excited to see what the team with come up with their future designs on this piece.
