So thats it for the Artbooks and other stuff, so the CEs are next up! =)

Cheers guys!

[Deathhound]

Wow, I can see that you love Artbooks :D
So many different ones

[flatout]

Amazing.. love the statues!

Didn't know Hell Yeah had a statue... that game gad some crazy bright colors.

Also love to see another Darksiders collector!

[AndyTheCollector]

So stunning and rich artbook collection! Wow! I love them as well but I have only like less than one third of your collection. Artbooks are my most favourite and most wanted CE commodity. :)

[Barran]

Yeah i also didnt know there was a Hell Yeah Statue, and i still cant get any real infos where that Statue comes from... i found a french gaming site that said the statue is limited to 100 pieces and its from the PC Collectors Edition, but i dont believe that... i know there was a contest from SEGA where you could win that statue... if someone has some infos where thats statue is from just let me know =) oh and yes, the colors was indeed very bright, and that one song from the happy cute land level.... omg, always when i look at this statue i got that song in my ear :bunny:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZBNAtMUtac
what a shame that Akedo aint makin no games no more :beg:

yes Andy your right, also for me Artbooks are an favourite extra on every CE, we need more CEs like that ones from Blizzard with big plenty filled Artbooks!!

[AndyTheCollector]

Diablo 3 artbook is so far my most favourite one - it's just really well made - book itself and beatiful art inside as well. But nothing can match the feeling of touch on Inside of HBO's Game of Thrones book. It's so soft and gorgeous.

[Barran]

the D3 Artbook is really nice, i also love it! you should look forward to buy "The Art of Blizzard" Artbook, THAT is an Artbook, freakin 376 Pages (about 5cm thick!), awesome artworks, i just love it!
you can see a review here
http://www.parkablogs.com/content/book-review-art-of-blizzard-entertainment

on Parka Blogs you can check out alot of good artbooks, i always went there to inform me for new artbooks, really got site!
http://www.parkablogs.com/content/video-game-art-books-list

[AndyTheCollector]

Oh, thanks a lot! I will check it for sure, looks interesting! :)

[Barran]

So here is a little update for the statues, some more pics from different angles. :bday:

That arch angle reminds me of Abbadon from Darksiders so much!

[AndyTheCollector]

Beatiful as usual! I really want to see pictures of that background because this glass cabinet and overall display looks amazing! :)

[Barran]

lol, yeah your right flatout, this both characters are looking indeed similarity! so i could make a diorama. war and ruin statue on the left, "Abbadon" statue in the middle and death and dust statue on the right, im sure that would looks cool! =) too bad i got no space left to put them that way :hammer:

@andy thx, glad you like it :thumb: will make some pictures of the stuff in the background this days! i have to clean up here first, looks a little bit messy here in here, all that boxes everywhere ^^

[v1sav1s]

Welcome Barran! This sanctuary suits you well! Stay as long as you like. :):beer:

I see the Assassin's Creed special editions get a special place of honor above your tv!

:rave:

[Barran]

thanks a lot v1sav1s, im glad you like my sanctuary :hug:
yes the Assassins Creed CEs got the VIP place here, i love the Assassins Creed Saga like the most of us alot. but the VIP Lounge getting close as soon as the AC4 Black Chest will be released, ohh where to store the stuff :pooryou:

[flatout]

thanks a lot v1sav1s, im glad you like my sanctuary :hug:

AC has gone downhill since 2. Brotherhood was pretty good but it was more of a AC2 expansion then anything. Revelations was terrible and AC3 was as well IMO.
I wont be getting Black Flag until long after launch... if at all.


I have said this many times but I am SO glad not to be an AC collector... there are just so many damn items. At least for Bioshock it is fairly limited, even though prices are hyped right now.

Darksiders is fairly limited as well which is nice, also D1 has some cool promo items.

Almost got one of those metal swords, do you like yours?

[v1sav1s]

Agreed, I just hope Ubi salvages the pieces before they drive this ship into the the rocks... or worse: the fans mutiny. ARRRRR! :P

One small hope on the horizon is Patrice Desilets and Jade Raymond. I'm fairly sure they'll tie Patrice to the mast this time. :P

[Barran]

i have to agree that AC2 was the best part of the AC saga, and that Brotherhood and Revelations couldnt reach the quality of AC2 is also true, AC2 was just epic, one of my fav. video games in this console gen.! and Brotherhood and Revelations indeed played like a expansion!
but i have to say that i liked AC3 alot, i really enjoyed it from the beginning to the end! lets hope AC4 will be good, its sounds indeed a bit strange, pirates and assassins.....and the short release time from AC3 to AC4 (about 1 Year)... yaaaarrrrr!
oh and i can understand why you are sayin your glad not to be a AC collectors, there is really ALOT of stuff out there, and the prices to get this rare stuff... ohhh expensive!!! $_$ i just sold my crouching altair statue because that guy was giving me so much money that i couldnt say no! =)
but i love the AC CEs and Statues, (except the NECA stuff)

Oh i saw this days some great BioShock Stuff on eBay, really awesome stuff, but the prices right now are sooo bad! like that thing
Real Audio Diary (http://www.ebay.com/itm/ULTRA-RARE-1-or-4-BioShock-Real-Audio-Diary-by-2K-Games-Marketing-not-infinite-/181109518566?nma=true&si=D6B3lCEOwn6alzd%252B5E1VZVXjYSk%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557)

i wish there was a statue of elizabeth (but not that ugly NECA one :haha:) made of resin, THAT would be awesome, i love that character.

Darksiders is also a great game, one of my fav.! and there is quite some cool things out there, like the TriForce Death Statue (http://www.projecttriforce.com/index.php?p=product&id=22) or the TriForce Soul Reaper (http://www.projecttriforce.com/index.php?p=product&id=23), this things are BIG! oO
The ChaosEater Sword that i own from United Cutlery is really nice, well made, heavy and really big... its not completly made of metal, metal and resin, otherwise that sword would be to heavy to lift, lol

[Barran]

so here is another update for the statues with different angles, enjoy guys =)

[AndyTheCollector]

Nice, I would love to have some glowing in the dark statue. :)

[Barran]

light up statues looks really cool, only problem is that the Darksiders statue needs to be plugged into USB so when you got the statue in a glass cabinet you have to hide the cable or else it looks strange when the cable is hangin around ^^

[Lemur]

That's a nice big sword! :clap:

[Barran]

the left one is from The Witcher, The right one is from the Witcher 2 and the black one in the middle is from the Witcher 2 Dark Edition, its almost the same like the Artbook from the normal The Witcher 2 CE, but it got about 40+ extra pages i think. cant wait for The Witcher 3, i love this games.... oh and i hope they will do a amazing CE! =)

Woah.. You got some great stuff in your collection!! I like specially the mask statues from castlevania and darksiders!

[ZeeAussie]

Really like the sonic stuff fella...

[Dr_Jengo]

Wow I'm surprised I have never seen your collection so far.. Impressive collection and I salute your passion for statues..

i do love statues, for me thats the greatest way to honor my fav. video games, so i want to start with show you some of my nice statues that i got:

This is so true and I have to agree whole-heartedly with you! :barsong:

[Barran]

much thanks guys for your replys!
its just too bad that i cant display the stuff in my room like on that photos, didnt have enough space and glass cabinet for that... and its gettin more and more... i think most of u guys know that problem :D

This is so true and I have to agree whole-heartedly with you!

cheers Veron_4, nice that you see it the same way like me :hug:
i just wish there would be more nice resin statues from video game characters, i would love to see Gabriel from Castlevania - Lords of Shadow and Geralt from The Witcher in nice poses, that would be awesome! <3

[v1sav1s]

Yeah I'm with you guys. Statues are like idol that gamers can worship. :notworthy: :swoon:

[Barran]

Yeah I'm with you guys. Statues are like idol that gamers can worship

lol yeah your right v1sav1s, so i also need a statue from the new lara croft and elizabeth from BioShock Infinite... oh man, i would worship both of em all day long :spiteful:

http://i49.tinypic.com/2rwnxwl.jpg

[Dr_Jengo]

Yes there are not enough figurines and statues of video game characters but I think we are in the time where this is changing. Video Games are moving into "main-stream" from what I see.

Too many is a problem too. There are like 1,367,092 iron man figures out there

[Barran]

today i received the Darksiders 2 Death mask from the Collectors Edition and the hardcover artbook. I already owned the Darksiders 2 Premium Edition (French exclusive) with the Death mask made of resin and the softcover artbook.

i was really surprised how light the mask from the Collectors Edition is compared to the Premium Edition mask.
thats because the CE mask is made of plastic and the premium edition mask is made of resin and its even limited to 13300 ( numbered on the bottom of the base, mine is 8341 / 13300.
The paint job is a little bit better on the CE mask, and its also brighter than the premium mask, but i like the resin mask more, it feels more like bones ^^ oh and the base from the CE is also very light compared to the premium edition base, and the paint job is also brighter.

here a some pics from both masks, the left one is the Collectors Edition mask, the right one is the Premium Edition mask.
i also updated the premium edition pic on page 5

Very Nice Figures. Welcome to the forum

[Barran]

i just finally received the "The Art of Brutal Legend" Artbook from Udon! it was so often delayed that most of us was thinkin it will never came out, but finally here it is!
This one is really awesome! its really huge, 252 pages full of brutal artworks, i just can recommend it to any brutal legend fan! oh and its got a hard cover, most udon artbooks with hard covers are limited editions, but this one got regular a hard cover, woot! there was also a "limited edition" that was available at the double fine shop (http://shop.doublefine.com/collections/fun-stuff/products/brutal-legend-art-book), with slipcase and signed by tim schafer, but its sold out... :banghead:
the index is kinda funny, the "chapters" are listed like tracks on a CD, like Characters 0:52, Open World 1:71, means page 52 and 171, reminds me on that nice vinyl main menu from the game! ^^

[Barran]

here is my newest "treasure", i got that one for a pretty good price, so i couldnt resist^^ its the Warcraft - Blood Elf Rogue VS Draenei Paladin Diorama from SideShow. It looks pretty awesome, really nice details and stuff, about 45 cm high, limited to 600... and look at that blood elf rogue... dat ass!!! @_@ also her breast are really big, looks a lil bit ridiculous because female blood elfs never got THAT big breasts... but hey, im a man, i still like it! :D

yeah the detail is really nice, like that chain is made of real metal, the stone from the hammer is slightly transparent and you can see the pages on the side from the book that the Draenei is wearing, really nice one. :thumb:

Always loved the lore and some of the characters of Warcraft but never could get into WoW at all. I bet if there was a way to star out mid-mage then people would be more apt to get into it.

Don't they have something like that now where you can get right into end-game content or am I dreaming this up?

I liked the sound of Guild Wars 2 but don;t have a PC to try it on (and haven't been a fan of PC gaming since I was really young playing Mech Warrior 3 on PC... which was an awesome online game BTW).

[spar]

Oh man, THAT IS AWESOME! Never seen statue detailed like that.

[Dr_Jengo]

flatout just said my feelings exactly. Loved the lore in Warcraft 2.

My favourite race was the Orcs. Used to use names like Hellscream and GrimFang as my nicks. WoW came out at a point of time in life when I stopped playing games so never got into that but love their character style.

Sick-looking statue, very cool!

[Barran]

i agree, the Warcraft universe is really great, i also loved the Warcraft RTS games, and also WoW was pretty good (ally ftw) till the pandas came, never liked them really:beee:
too bad Blizzard never released the Warcraft adventure:mad:

Don't they have something like that now where you can get right into end-game content or am I dreaming this up?

no there is no way to jump right on the high end content with a new character in wow... but the XP rate is increased till Level 70 or something? its still alot of work to get a high end character, but nothin compared to the classic wow times, where you had to spend ALOT of time into it! ^_^

time for another one! i got this one already 2 weeks but there was some problems with the hand which holds the plasma cutter and me and my friend had to fix it... and now its ready to show up :bananayes:

So here we have another Sideshow figure, this time its Isaac Clarke from Dead Space, staying over a fucked up necromorph... the statue looks good, but i have to say its not the best work from SideShow, the paintjob from the prototype photos from SideShow looks alot better! but it still looks pretty cool. it has a light up feature in the helmet and its limited up to 750 pieces worldwide.

Amazing figures! Nicely done on displaying the pics!

[ZeeAussie]

Awesome figures there fella, looks really impressive :beer:

[Barran]

thanx a lot ZeeAussie and Sand4fish, nice to hear that you like the way i displaying my pics! but i need to get a better camera, mine is not the best and there are so much nice details that you cant see.... i spent so much money on figures, so there is no money left for a good camera :D
stay tuned for the next one! :thumb:

[Boinkzoink]

Solid collection and really nice-looking pictures! I like how you "theme" your television screen with the collection that you are displaying. Plus, everything looks so neat and tidy! :yes:

[Dr_Jengo]

Fantastic new additions.. I'm envious! That Kratos is awesome.. I'm still 50-50 over it, just hoping I can find one locally or with low shipping costs. Don't want to break the bank for that :P

Can't wait for some of my statues to come in Sep/Oct..

thanx Boinkzoink, you got a good taste! :barsong: i always like to put a good theme in the background for my shootings, that give the photo that certain something ^^

@Dr_Jengo i was pretty lucky to get kratos for a "good" price, most prices for him are really high =( but im sure that you will get him also someday for a good price, just keep on lookin, i also was lookin a long time for a good price for that bad boy and here it is ^^

which statues did you have pre-ordered? i also got some pre orders that i cant wait to get... and they always get delayed :beg:

[Barran]

time for some blood n gore.... so here we have the Dead Island Riptide Zombie Bait Edition with the US Flag Bikini.

The torso statue is made of resin and the paint job is actually good for that price, looks cool, but its also very disgusting with all that bloody detail... when I took the photos, i felt a lil bit like a forensic doctor ^^


But somehow i like it... i dont think i would display this one in my glass cabinet, but its a great CE to shock some friends :twisted:

So check out the bloody pictures! :suicide:

Welcome to the forum. Thank you for gracing us with your beautiful collection. I'm glad that there is another figure collector on this forum. I started out buying figures because I loved the video games so much and then it totally spiraled out of control. Well, we can't put a price on happiness after all.

Cheers!! :barsong:

[flatout]

Very nice!

I also got a new Statue, but there is something broken so it still takes some time till its repaired, but i already can tell it is a Zelda Figure from First 4 Figures, and it looks awesome :drool:

[AndyTheCollector]

Great stuff! I really like GW2 CE and 'll maybe go for it in future. It's really one of the best quality ones.

[Dr_Jengo]

Awesome statues a page back! Warcraft ones are nice! Is the deathwing one rare?

Quite a number of the statues I'm getting got pushed back to almost the end of the year. Damn! I wanted to share some statues with you guys.

[Barran]

Awesome statues a page back! Warcraft ones are nice! Is the deathwing one rare?

The Deathwing was only available on the BlizzCon, its made from SideShow, it looks really nice, he was my first SideShow figure^^ i also heard that SideShow will make a big statue from Deathwing, cant wait to see this one, maybe they show the prototype on the ComicCon this year, would be cool.

Quite a number of the statues I'm getting got pushed back to almost the end of the year. Damn! I wanted to share some statues with you guys.

yeah i know that problem, my statues are also delayed... still waitin for my SideShow - Arthas and SOTA - Darksiders 2, should come in mid. july now, i hope it will not be delayed again... and my Kotobukiya - Dead Space 3 Isaac Clarke and SideShow - Diablo comes in Q3/Q4 this year, but im pretty sure that the Diablo statue will come out in Q1 2K14... I WANT THEM NOW!!!! :rant:

[Dr_Jengo]

Arthas is not out yet? I thought I saw pics of him already..
Nice.. will like to see a bigger version of the Deathwing statue

[flatout]

Man I love your statues!

I think I have said this already but I have always loved the art and characters from WoW... just never the game itself (to grindy and long for my taste).

But when WoW trailers come out with the new villain in them I watch them like 10 times over... they know cinematics!

[Barran]

Arthas is not out yet? I thought I saw pics of him already..

he is already out, i already saw some epic unboxing videos on youtube, but its still not arrived in germany, didnt found a statues shop with arthas here yet, my dealer just told me he will arrived end of july :beg:

here is a picture from the ComicCon 2K11 from Deathwing, cant wait to see the prototype! would be great if there is a LED in the chest like on the Arthas statue

thanks flat, i can feel you, i also cant get enough of them!
and the art and the characters (excpeted pandas) are also some of my favourite ones, my favourite cinematic was that one from Wrath of the Lich King, best one ever! to bad the movie they will do soon is with real actors, i wanna have a CGI movie :-/
btw. i can highly recommend you the Artbook "The Art of Blizzard" and World of Warcraft: Tribute" from UDON, really epic artworks in here!
soon there will be a deluxe edition from The Art of Blizzard, looks awesome, would really love to buy that one... but 140 Euro for a artbook is alot, even when this one is a really special

http://blizzplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/the-art-of-blizzard-entertainment-limited-edition.jpg

[flatout]

Thanks for the info... The Art of Blizzard one woulvd be cool as it would have Diablo stuff as well.

Although I am not into Art Books that much, the only one I own right now are for Darksiders 1 and both are signed (one is by UDON).

[Barran]

yes there is also alot of good diablo 3 art in it, here is a review with pics and a video
http://www.parkablogs.com/content/book-review-art-of-blizzard-entertainment
its really big, the biggest artbook i own right now

[Dr_Jengo]

Wow that Deathwing one looks huge, looks awesome as well!

[Barran]

i received some good stuff today, some great items, check it out! :bday:

first one is the Assassins Creed 3 courier bag, pretty nice one, looks pretty good, nice quality!

the second one is the AC3 Tomahawk in the wooden box, that one is really nice, the tomahawk looks like a real one, too bad that the tomahawk is made of LARP, metal would be awesome!! but anyway, it almost looks like real metal.. and i like the box with the tomahawk displaying in it, looks awesome!

and the last one is real bad ass stuff! it is the prototype 2 limited edition james heller leather jacket, man this one looks goooood!! it has a "built in" hoodie, its made of 100% leather shell and 100% polyester lining, and has a nice relief printing on the back and the arms! only thing missing are the super powers from james heller :superman:

the first statue out of 4 i had pre ordered some time ago arrived finally, woot!

Here we have the Dead Space 3 - Isaac Clarke Statue from Kotobukiya. This one looks very nice, showing Isaac Clarke on a ice base wearing his snow suit and standing over a fucked up necromorph or at least the rest of it ^^ the statue has a very nice light up feature, looks really cool, the light up feature is even better than on the Sideshow Isaac Clarke Statue because there was only the helmet lighted up.
I really like this one, the plasma cutter is even moveable and the painting of the blood is shiny, so it looks like its fresh! i would like to see more cool video game statues from Kotobukiya... :thumb:

Badass Looking Isaac! Not really a fan of Kotobukiya because they tend to give "Asian" faces to most of their characters but this one looks awesome. Obviously because there is no visible face :rotf:

I'm tired of waiting for my statues..

:rotf::rotf::rotf::rotf::rotf:

I have no idea, but I found that comment so funny. I can't think of any Kotobukiya examples that really ring true for that comment, but the majority of my Kotobukiya figures are from animes and animes love looking like caucasians.

Sweet looking jacket. Now, the question is if you would actually wear it in public.

[Deathhound]

I love the Isaac statue. That loosk incredible!

[AndyTheCollector]

Cool statue! I like Kotobukiya - Batman statue from Arkham City CE is really nicely done!

[LeX]

great stuffs, loving to see your updates...
very interesting.

[Barran]

Sweet looking jacket. Now, the question is if you would actually wear it in public.

my collectors instinct says "no! dont wear it! think about the value!" and my badass instinct says "yes! wear it! chicks gonna love it! :D

...nahhh, im a collector. Collectors instinct wins! ^_^

Cool statue! I like Kotobukiya - Batman statue from Arkham City CE is really nicely done!
oh right, the Arkham City CE figure is also from Kotobukiya , i thought Isaac was my first Kotobukiya figure but it was batman :batman:

[Barran]

i took some pictures from my glass cabinet a few days ago, i storage in there most of my smaller figures and stuff, not everything in it is related to video games, there are also some nice spawn figures (classic cover series) from McFarlane in it... and if you guys wonder what that strange pyramid is, you can see here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-gW4ZJb8Ro

when i was takin the photos I was thinkin about to set up some things different in it soon, like when the Darksiders 2 Death and Despair statue arrives, the War and Ruin Statue on the left side, in the middle the mask of death and on the right side the Death and Despair Statue and when you turn on the LEDs on the statues, one side of the mask will light up in red (war) and the side other in green (death)... :drool:

thanks a lot sir, many thanks for your nice words! i think your right, i practically collect everything... at least what it's worth for :D


The absolute best! This makes me want to go out and buy one...*sigh**

TF

yeah i also must say i fell in love with this one, always when i walk past this one i say to me "kickass" :D hope you also will get one, price is alright... at least cheaper than a sideshow figure :thumb:

[Barran]

here we have a really awesome one, fell instant in love when i was unboxing it, such a nice statue i can tell you guys! :notworthy:

This one is the Wolf Link and Midna Statue from First 4 Figures based on the The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess game. The statue is pretty huge, i expected it would be a lil bit smaller, but thats cool. Midna looks really awesome, i already liked her look already in the game... and she has great details like that lil tooth in her mouth that you can see on the close up photo, the eyes are really good painted, and Wolf Link also looks really great, like i said, hes huge, great details like a real metal chain on his foot and metal ear rings! And his paintjob also is very good. he has a nice pattern on his fur, sadly not clearly visible on the photos... the base is really heavy, if this one would feel on the foot... ouch! i personally think the Wolf Link and Midna and the Link on Epona are both the best F4F Statues from the Master Series...

Ladys and Gentleman, this time we have a special guest, a very special applause for Lara Croft! :clap:

So here we have the Tomb Raider - Guardian of Light Lara Croft Statue from Sideshow, inspired by the art of Adam Hughes ... and i have to say she looks really beautiful, just look at her breasts eehhh i mean face! :quote: i really like the dynamic pose from that statue, its very unique! her clothes are made of real material, only her backpack is made of resin, thats also very nice! The base looks great, it is very detailed with all that plants and that cool pattern on it!
I took the pictures with flash on this time, usually i dont like that because with flash on most of the nice details cant be seen right and skin color is also a problem, too bright... i took the close ups from the base and her face without flash, there you can see what i mean ^^ anyway, enjoy this fine lady! :notworthy:

here we have a real big monster, it is the Gears of War 3 - Hammerburst II from Triforce! Man this thing is a monster, its fuckin huge! the size is 20" H x 10" W x 36" L and its 35 lbs heavy! when i holding this monster, i feel like a child because of its size! and it is really hard to hold that thing for a while if you aint schwarzenegger or a locust! ^^ the details are really nice, it also has a cool light up feature! i bought that one for a really good price, on the triforce homepage this one listed with 850$ :blackeye:

the only problem is... where to put this monster? :scratch:

[rodarkone]

maybe you should start thinking how to upgrade the house :)

I already have 2 rooms full of "crap" and is still growing.

[Barran]

yep i really should start thinking about that, the collection gets bigger and bigger, and i wanna display all of them like they deserved it... hm i think i need a big house for that :thumb:

Here we have the Ryu Hayabusa Resin Statue from Ninja Gaiden 2, this figure is made from First4Figures/One2One, and i catch this one up for a pretty good price, and to be honest i was sceptical about this figure but i gave it a try because of the good price... and i was pretty surprised when this one arrived , it looks actually pretty cool! the pose is based on the game cover, and the base looks really cool with this 2 swords rammed into the ground and the bloodstains on the ground... the scyth reminds me on that one from Dantes Inferno ^^ the whole statue is almost 60 cm high and its weight 5kg

man, i love your collection so much.... i've always wanted to start collecting statues but my wallet..... :suicide:

have you ever considered getting statues outside of video game related stuff? i saw your spawn and trigun stuff.

[flatout]

Wow, that statue is awesome looking.

Your statue collection is amazing.

[Barran]

thanks guys for the nice words, I do appreciate it!
@Dan yeah i already got some other statues that are not related to video games, im trying to upload some pics later!

[Barran]

so here are some statues not related to video games, at least not excatly, there a some spawn games and also a GI Joe game out there, but this statues are not based on them ^^

today arrived the Artbook "The Art of God of War Ascension" and im still blown away, this is by far the best artbook i own right now in my collection, it looks so amazing! its really big, even bigger than The Art of Blizzard and its really high-quality in all the way! when you are a fan of the game, go get it, you wont regret it.... :thumb:

Holy crap Barran!!

Great stuff... that Art Book looks awesome! If I had not sold my GoW collection i would have gotten one, even though Ascension is the weakest out of all the GoW games on any.

Did Steve Park work on Ascension as well? His art style is amazing.

[Barran]

thanks buddy!:beer:

i just looked into the book if i can find something from Steve Park but i didnt find anything =/ but i just noticed that its really hard to hold this book for a while because its so big and heavy :D

Sad to hear that you sold your GoW Collection, but this book would be a good start to build up the collection from the beginning ^^ but yeah, Asecension was the weakest part on the PS3, while the other 3 gow games was really epic this one just was good...

[flatout]

I thought he may have left, but I am sure the art is still awesome.

I also seem to have gotten his name wrong.. it is Andy Park.


Here are a few of Andy Park's Pics, I know you have seen these:

Here is his Deviant Art Gallery:

[Barran]

ahh now i found this guy, hes name was wrong! ^^
yeah Andy Parks GoW Art ist genius, i love his art, especially this picture with the cyclops is straight badass!
he also did some Art for Ascension, here are some samples:
http://conceptartworld.com/?p=26321

i think he's art is also in the God of War 2 Artbook which only was released in china oO

[flatout]

Yeah not sure why i thought his first name was Steve.

His art for GoW 2 and 3 is amazing.

[Barran]

here is a comparing between the "The Art of Blizzard" vs "The Art of God of War Ascension" Artbook.

The Art of Blizzard - 376 Pages

Yaaarr! On board and Swab my deck! :pirate:

here we have the Assassins Creed 4 Edward Kenway figure from UbiCollectibles/Pure Arts.
The figure is made of PVC and is pretty good detailed but as usually the face is not so good... oh and you have to be careful with the 4 guns you have to put into his hands and the belt, you easily can broke the guns when you force them into his hands and the belt! The pose is really awesome, i really love it! too bad that isnt a 1/4 scale figure made of resin, that would be straight bad ass, but would be also very expensive :pooryou:
The nice thing about this figure is that u can make a diorama when you have the AC4 Blackbeard figure which will fit excatly on the back of the Edward Kenway base so you have a round base with both characters standing back to back to each other so its look like there are surrounded by enemys!

Cool, Thanks for posting it. too bad the face is not that good as expected because of the hood (difficult to sculpt) but for the blackbeard it would be great.

I actually have not order this yet. you have information how limited are these?

thx buddy :beer:
yeah its always the same problem with the face, but the hood is covering the face good so no problem with that ^^

there is no information about the limitation for this figure, but i think they produced less blackbeard figures than Edward figures... so when you wanna make a diorama, go get em both, Mathika already said Blackbeard is sold out in the german UbiShop, what my guess confirmed!

[LeX]

Oh know.. better hunt my blackbeard

[Barran]

i redesigned my glass cabinet, here is what it looks like now, still not perfect, but pretty cool, especially the Assassins Creed "section" and the spawn "section" looks good! =)

Great collection mate, if you ever decide to sell your D3 barb statue let me know ;-)

[Lemur]

Wow very nice display and the new assassin looks great. But that face! :lmao:

[The Silent Man]

Nice statue, awful face!

[Dr_Jengo]

Didn't see the details on the face before but yea that face is.. Good thing about it is that you can hardly see the face on display though..

[LeX]

that's my only complain about AC statue, they couldn't make the face perfect, ok because of the hood.
then they make a diorama with the hood down for them to make the face perfectly sculpt,

imagine, Edward with the hood down, stirring the Jackdaw wheel with the pose of commanding his crews to fire the cannons

[Barran]

yeah it is always the same problem with the face, till now only Hot Toys Ezio has a good face... even the expensive statues have bad faces (Ezios Fury, Attakus Ezio)... cant wait to see the McFarlane Edward Resin statue, i hope at least he did a good job :beg:

that explains why the face of Hot Toys Ezio looks good because the hood was not in the way ^^

here is the best presskit ever, the Batman Arkham Origins Presskit! ^^
It is limited to 1000 worldwide and It has a Batarang with a built in LCD display and comes in a wooden chest, incl a display stand for the Batarang and a Presskit booklet and CD... oh and a small USB cabel =P
you can turn on the batarang and watch a nice CGI Batman Arkham Origins Trailer... when holding the batarang and watching the trailer, it feels like "playing" with a PSP in a batarang design^^ you also can plug the batarang via USB to the PC and check out some more trailers and screens, about 150 MB Space has the batarang.

i was surprised about the quality, its pretty good, the batarang is made of solid plastic and nicely pre painted, the display stand is made of cold cast and the LCD display is actually good, even the sound is alright, although its fucking loud! i also was surprised that the Batarang was made from Pure Arts, thats the company who also made the 2 Assassins Creed 3 PVC figures.

Grats on the Batman Kit! IT truly is an amazing kit, no doubt about it.

Unfortunately I do not think the video can be changed in anyway. I tried pretty hard to look for a way and I believe the video and playback device to be one a separate operating board then then USB part. Also what you asked in y thread about the volume... I do not believe there is a way to adjusts that either, all you can do is pause the vid as far as I know.


Hope that helps :beach:

Thx a lot flat! I have seen yours first and I was really jealous, so im really glad i also could get one :barsong:

Too bad you cant change the Video, i also was lookin for it, but i think you could be right, the video and playback device must be a separate operating board then then USB part. funny thing is, my trailer is completly in german, voice and text!

too bad there is no way to adjust the vol., like i said, its really loud, is yours also so loud? why they does a play/pause button instead of a vol. button :rant:

[Barran]

Here we have a special statue, its the one and only Dutch Schaefer aka Arnold Schwarzenegger!
The Statue is based on the movie character Dutch Schaefer from the classic movie Predator.
There is not much to say about this statue... its Arnold Schwarznegger! :clap:
The face is really awesome, it looks like the real Arnold Schwarzenegger back in the days, very good work here!

Here we have the Standard Commander Shepard from Mass Effect 3.
The Statue is pretty nice, I was skeptical at first because of his pose,but seeing it in person i have to say he actually looks pretty cool (same thing like the Ninja Gaiden II Statue). His face looks pretty nice, like the standard male shepard from Mass Effect... but he looks a lil bit too serious. ^^
Oh and the Base has a light up feature!
The Statue is 48cm high and about 5 kg.

Nice addition! Your statue collection is so impressive!

Do you have the Death & Dust and/or the Scythe on order from Tri-Force? Wish I could afford to get those.

[Barran]

thanks flat :wave:
i also would love to get that TriForce stuff, but thats even for me too expensive^^ hopefully i can get them on eBay someday for a "good" price.
but i have the SOTA Darksiders 2 on pre order, what about you?

[flatout]

There is another D2 from SOTA? The Death on his horse one has been out for quite awhile hasn't it?

[Barran]

yeah thats the one i mean, the statue is still not arrived here in germany :rant:
btw, did you already saw this pics from the Darksiders 2 statue from TriForce, has some nice close ups!

http://community.darksiders.com/go/thread/view/138771/29231333/Comic_Con_update?lang=de

[flatout]

Nice... it is a really nice statue. The Scythe is really amazing as well.

I really want that other shirt. I have the black one in those pics but that Death one is awesome! Not into shirts really but for Darksiders I will collect just about anything... even the steelbook (which I really dislike steelbooks).

If I ever get to the point where i am not hard up for money all the time I may try and get all the statues but that will probably not be likely to happen.

[misterunboxers]

IMO Triforce makes junk products. Took them 3 times to get the Marcus bust right. I will never again buy from them :( Although Death looks amazing.

[Barran]

after a long time finally my Darksiders 2 - Death and Despair Statue from SOTA arrived. The Light up feature is totally awesome! i really love the pose, thats what i call dynamic!

Not much to say else, the wait is over... Dead lives!

thanx Jengo!

Yeah get the statue while you can, it really looks awesome with the light up feature! do you have the War and Ruin statue? i know that i saw both statues on your blog, but this was from your friend if im right?

[Dr_Jengo]

Yea I only have the War and Ruin one but I featured my friend's collection in my blog. So tempting to get it but I got too much on my plate now.

[Barran]

Yea I only have the War and Ruin one but I featured my friend's collection in my blog. So tempting to get it but I got too much on my plate now.

Yeah I remember! I still had to wait very long for the statue in comparison to your friend, he already have this one over a year... but better late than ever ^^

Do not wait too long or it is sold out, that would be a great pity if you already own the first statue... the War and Ruin is already sold out a long time ago. but i can feel you, i also had too much on my plate so i had to cancel some pre orders =(

amazing statue baran!!! :drool:

the box for it looks HUGE :swoon:

Thanks Dan! :beer:
Yes, the box is compared to the statue indeed huge, but thanks god is not that huge like the box from the Sideshow Arthas statue, that one was huge... really huge!!
i like the design from the Darksiders II box, this is something that's also important to me, even if i dont set up the box at all ^^

i hope there will be a Darksiders 3 and 4, i want the other 2 horsemen for the perfect diorama! ^^

Lol... yeah I love me some Darksiders :D


No I do not have the SOTA statues... I did not like them enough to get them. They are cool but i just feel the are just not consistent (like the light up parts but other parts that are supposed to glow are just painted, ect..).

[Barran]

You dont know how perfect that sounds


too bad the war and ruin statue is no longer available anywhere :(

that would be an epic diorama!

hm yeah i just checked some US shop, sold out everywhere =( i had luck with mine, the statue already was sold out everywhere, but one shop in the netherlands still had one in stock, and that was mine! ^^

No I do not have the SOTA statues... I did not like them enough to get them. They are cool but i just feel the are just not consistent (like the light up parts but other parts that are supposed to glow are just painted, ect..).

yeah i have to agree with the painted parts thats are supposed to be painted... the color of the flames that are painted looks cheap, just some orange which doesnt looks good... but the light up feature is so awesome, that makes the statue unique :thumb:

Yeah that is what i mean. I which they would have made all of those parts clear with LEDs, it would have made it consistent a look better up close. Still not sure i would have gotten one though. I want a War only one, one where War is big enough to have the detail in his armor look really good. That one War is too small for that.

The only thing i dont like on both statues is the size, the War and Ruin is about 13"-14" inches and the Death and Despair statue is 12" and since i only hang around with the big guys, mostly sideshow (most statues are about 18") these statues looks a bit small... and smaller statues dont have that detail like the big guys! Man if these both statues where about 18".... KicKaSs!!! ^^

Yeah bigger would have been better, but they still look good ;)

I just want a 12 inch or bigger War statue... but it will never happen as far as a new one (well unless Nordic games commissions one but I doubt it).

[CheapAssassin]

Bad ass statue.. especially when you light it up!!! So jealous of u!

yeah both statues are looking awesome no doubt!

hm i also think that there wont be a War statue =(
the only thing you can do is a Private Commission/Custom... your own statue made by a professional. but i never did that, i think that will cost a lot! :scratch:

[Barran]

thanks jonkhor86! yeah both statues are really bad ass with lights on, a real light show! ^^

[Xann]

I "must say" you have about the best collection of statues I've seen so far. If you ever decide too part with the Darksiders statues Please let me know I will give them a good home.:)

[Barran]

time for a small update =)
here we have the Assassins Creed: Altair the Legendary Assassin statue from Pure Arts / UbiCollectibles.
The statue looks good, i like the base and the pose of Altair. i never really played AC1, so im not sure if the face looks like altair, but I bet it does not look like altair, he looks a bit tired... or drunken ^^
the inner of the bell is hollow and has the AC / Pure Arts / UbiCollectibles Logo in it, too bad, no real belt ^^
the statue is made of PVC, the chain is made of metal.
the hidden blade is a bit bent on the pics, i fixed that, the material is very thin and bendable

Wow that looks amazing... until you see the face! What the heck happened to him?!? Not really sure where they got that face model from, he looks like a Saturday morning cartoon or something you'd find in Sunday comics?! Wow... :haha:

Why don't they make it in resin? It will cost a little more but who cares? I stopped with PVC statues since the blakbeard/Kenway diorama... it felt so cheap (I didn't have that feeling with the pvc statues from ezio)

here we have a real beauty, this one is called "Angel of Death" from ARH. These guys from ARH making some really awesome statues and im glad i could get this one for a pretty good price!
The statue looks really awesome and its huge, almost 60 cm/ 23 inch and the wingspan is about 40cm / 16 inch, weight is 10kg! i love the wings, they looks so awesome and Death looks really impressive, the base is also very cool.
The dead souls are glowing in the dark, thats a nice feature, but you have to light them up to glow, LEDs would be cooler. Unfortunately I could not take a photo from the glow effect, my camera is to shitty ^^

This Statue is from SOTA, and one thing is sure about SOTA, they really know how to make badass LightUp Statues! The LightUp feature looks so amazing, i really love it! what else to say... look at the pics and uknowwhatimean ^^

The Statue is about 12" tall and weights is about 10 lbs

thanks flat!

Oni is the result of Akuma fully "merging" with the Satsui no Hado (http://streetfighter.wikia.com/wiki/Satsui_no_Hado). He makes his debut in the Arcade Edition update of Super Street Fighter IV as a secret boss and a playable character, and he appears in the Asuras Wrath DLC "Lost Episode - The Strongest vs. The Angriest". :thumb:

time for another update! oh wait, the last update is already 1 1/2 years ago?! damn, time goes on fast, and i was pretty busy in this time, but finally im back with a nice update :barsong:

so here we have the Lunging Kratos Statue from Gaming Heads, a pretty huge statue with almost 20 inches / 53 cm. He actually looks good, i like the size of the statue, pretty impressive, but unfortunately hes face doesnt looks angry enough for kratos in my opinion, i like the Sideshow face more.
Oh and the pose reminds my on a bird starting to take off when you looking directy from the front on him ^_^

Nice addition Barran!

Too many Kratos statues out there, I'm still deciding which to get (Actually still saving.. :P)

[Barran]

thx Jengo,

yeah there are many kratos statues out there, one from Sideshow, 2 from Gaming Heads, 1 from EFX, 2 garage model kits... unfortunately the Lurging Kratos has the baddest face from them... the Sideshow one has the best i think... oh and the face from the gaming head bust also looks badass

[Barran]

here is some reinforcement for my commander shepard statue :wave:

this statue is from gaming heads, looks like sideshow doesnt continue the mass effect line and gaming heads takes the lead, they already released 5 team members!
i like the garrus statue, he looks pretty cool in his armor, especially from the side. i think this one is the coolest mass effect statue right now.

the garrus statue is based on mass effect 3 so a quarter of his face on the right side has been badly damaged. you can see a pic on the bottom, just click the spoiler.

the statue is about 21 inches / 53cm tall and weights 6 kg.

Yea wasn't too happy with the Lunging Kratos' face. I'm looking to get the 26 inches ones from Sony and the Gaming Heads Bust, that bust looks real epic!
Might pick up the Throne and the Lunging Kratos later if I can afford them

[Barran]

Here we have Grommash Hellscream from the game World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor.
The statue is made from Happy Worker, a pretty unknow company for the most people other there, at least for statues i think... they already did the Overwatch Tracer Statue or some nice Blizzard Holiday gifts like the Hearthstone or the Diablo 3 Treasure goblin and some more cool stuff. and i have to say if they keep the quality like they did on the Grommash Hellscream statue they will become my favourite statue manufactor! :D
here you can see what they already made (http://www.happyworker.com/work)

The details and this statue are just awesome, so much details and all of them are made so good, wow!
i love the base, thats what i call a real base, not a boring stone or something else, Grommash Hellscream is staying on Mannoroth head!
Also the Paintjob is really really good, even the small wounds are painted with blood inside.

this statue is one of the few statues where i cant complain about anything at all... okay the price is high, but for that price you get a real work of art.

the measures of the statue is 18"/45.72cm and its really heavy, about 15kg

oh and btw. i have a new camera, so you can see every little detail now! ;)

and another World of Warcraft statue just arrived, finally a dragon for my collection! :drool:

here we have Deathwing from World of Warcraft: Cataclysm made by Sideshow.
man this one is a beast, his wings are so huge, the wingspan is 30" / 76,2cm:nosleep: the Wings have a translucent effect which also looks very nice.
Also the rest of the statue is huge, 25.5" H / 64cm x 24" / 60cm, a real eyecatcher! The Paintjob is good, the dragonscales are painted black and underneath the dragonscales its painted red, so it looks like fiery magma!

The Base is also cool, Deathwing rises up over the towers of Stormwind in a dynamic pose inspired by the game’s cinematic intro, very cool!

check out the pics from that beast!

Love the WoW characters and love the lore. Those are really nice concepts for statues (I love the one they made full size and the maquette they made before that was amazing). I do have a few issues with the execution of the Happy Worker and Sideshow versions but I do not want the bring down the vibe :D Still great imposing statues, also the horn on the Hellscream one looks amazing (kind of outshines the rest and highlights the not so well executed spots).

[Barran]

here we have the prince of darkness, dracula from Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 made by First 4 Figures sitting on his impressive throne.

The Castlevania: Lords of Shadow series was one of my fav. games on the last gen consoles, so i was pretty excited when i heard that there making a statue from the LoS series.

So Dracula looks good, i like his red armor, its pretty detailed. What i dont like so much is his face, he looks to harmless, to bad they didnt give him a angry look.
The throne really looks impressive, very detailed and pretty huge, about 45cm / 17"
too bad that he only holding his chalice in the ex. version, in the reg. he has nothing in his hands...

Check out the pics, and dont forgot to click the spoiler :D

after a long time here is one of my most wanted statues, Tychus Findlay from Star Craft 2. Like Tychus would say now: Hell, its about Time!

The statue showing Tychus standing on a killed Zerg looking in the sky and holding a big ass gun in his hand. His face looks pretty good, you can even see his hair! i think i never saw him in the game without his helmet... Hes armor looks pretty cool, it really looks like a massive armor with some cool paintings on it and some scratches. The Base looks pretty nice with that killed Zerg on it and some bullets on the ground and alot of blood on it.

the statue weights 10kg / 22 pounds and is about 40 cm / 15" high

The interesting thing is that the statue was released back in 2007, and the game came out in 2010. i was first like "what? is that game already 9 years old?" :nosleep:

Not a big fan of Starcraft but that statue is impeccable! I've always liked the way you use the wallpaper as a backdrop. Adds a really nice touch to the statues.

[Joel Nigma]

Where on earth do you keep these statues? I'd imagine you probably have another room dedicated to statues and figures, or maybe you actually have more room in your room. heehee

[Barran]

You are not Prepared! At least my wallet wasnt prepared. :D

Time for another World of Warcraft statue, looks like the WoW statues are going to be my favourite statues, damn they looks so good :thumb:


so here we have Illidan Stormrage, his first appearance was in Burning Crusade, and now hes back in Legion, the statue is also based on Illidan from Legion.

The statue really looks impressive, hes wings looks really awesome, they have the same effect like the wings from the Deathwing statue.

the base looks good, nothing special like the base from the Grommash Hellscream statue but it fits to Illidan, he stands on the top of a cliff.

the paintjob and the details are also pretty good, especially hes skin is very detailed.
oh and he comes with a alternate pair of hands without the warglaives, looks also pretty nice.

He is really huge, about 23 inches / 60 cm high and 15 inches / 40 cm wide, weight is about 7kg.

im not sure who did this statue this time, its not from Happy Workers who did the Grommash Hellscream statue which is too bad, because when it comes to details and painting the Hellscream statue is still over the top and i was hoping to see more WoW statues from Happy Workers. :beg:

I like what I see there !
So many awesome statues :yes:

[Barran]

oh my poor wallet becomes thinner and thinner, but it was worth it. ^^

so here we have the Assassins Creed 3 - Connor Premium Statue by Pure Arts.

Pure Arts is one of my favourite PVC figures manufactors, so i was really excited to see the quality when it comes to resin statues... and they dont disappointed me.

the statue looks so damn awesome, the pose which is based on the AC3 Cover was chosen perfectly, i love it. <3



The details and the paintjob are very good, the snow looks very realistic and the snow on connors clothes looks also great, and the face from that red coat guy is incredible well done, you can really the the fear in hes eyes, wow!

the statue is very heavy with almost 15kg / 33lbs and it is almost 50cm / 19 inches tall.

right now this one is the best Assassins Creed statue out there, and i really hope to see more AC premium resin statues from Pure Arts!

Where did you get it? I can't find any retailer, and the Pure Arts store isn't working (404 not found)...

[Barran]

yeah that statue is a true master piece, i love it!

i bought mine on the ubishop germany, i was lucky to get one because it was already sold out and than one was restocked and i bought it fast as possible ^^

hm yeah i also saw that the pure arts shop is not working since some days... i dont know why =/

do you plan to get this bad ass statue?

btw. i saw your kratos statue right on your armchair, damn that looks good! :drool:

yeah I was planning to get it but I saw the price on the pure art website...something over $700, really??:beg: It's almost the price of that Prime 1 studio Geralt statue I've been looking for so long!
If I could find it at a cheaper price I would buy it for sure.

And this Kratos statue, damn I like it! Haha it's nice to see you like it :)

yeah i think it was about 700 $... 500$ for the statue and about 200$ for shipping :blackeye:

that Prime 1 Witcher Statues are really awesome, but that Prime 1 stuff is even for me too expensive... :nea:

[Mar-l-Aoutat]

Pure Arts store is working now. 712,37$ with shipping, about 1000$ canadian dollars if you include customs fees :pooryou:
Gotta pass on this for now :( sad because it is a wonderful piece. Congrats for getting one!

[Barran]

i was pretty surprised when the postman came this week with a package from blizzard, i didnt expected that this bad boy was released so fast, but i was really happy indeed! :thumb:

so here we have the newest Blizzard Collectibles Statue, The Reaper from Overwatch.

i love his pose, it looks really cool when he stand between 2 other statues.

the details and the paintjob are good, especially for the price of 150$

the statue is 12 inches / 30cm tall and 19 inches / 50cm wide, its made of resin and weights about 3kg.

[flatout]

Yeah I agree, for $150 this statue is a bargain.

[xhunter]

$150 price point for the Overwatch statues so far has been great. Been seeing cheap Genji PVC statues on eBay for awhile now, so I suspect Genji will be next. Also just saw a couple Lucio PVCs, so Lucio could also be next.

Also, super jealous of your Brutal Legend statue!

[Mar-l-Aoutat]

Not a fan of Overwatch designs, but I have to admit that $150 for a 12 inches resin statue is a very good deal

[Barran]

@xhunter i also saw that fake Kenji statue on ebay! i was wondering that there are so many fake Overwatch statues on ebay, like a Reaper statue with alternate color or with a flame around the base... there are even two different Kenji statues with alternate colors and a pre painted Soldier 76 from the collectors edition! oh and Tracer of course^^ Overwatch is pretty famous in asia like we can see :haha:

The PVC Reapers in the exact same pose as the official one from Blizzard were on eBay months before Blizzard announced the Reaper statue, so my guess is people are copying the designs and making PVC knockoffs. Hopefully we will be seeing Genji and Lucio soon!

[Barran]

long time since i posted a collectors edition here, shame on me! i bought some CEs the past months but i didnt showed them here, but that one here is really nice and the quality is so nice that i had to make some photos =)

So here we have the For Honor Collectors Case which was exclusive available on the UbiStore, and i was pretty lucky to get one because i ordered just before the game came out and 30 min. later it was sold out!

The Collectors Edition comes in a really nice big box and inside is a large lithography and 3 helmets replicas made of metal! These helmets are awesome, they are really heavy and has some nice details, especially for a Collectors Edition product i am amazed of the quality. The helmets are manufactured by Pure Arts, so what else to say, i love these guys! :thumb:

the weight per helmet is about 1kg, the size of the helmet is 1:3, the edition is limited to 13065 worldwide.

So check out the pics and get that Collectors Case if you can, its worth it! oh and check out the spoiler with my own unique edition ;)

time for another special item! :)

here we have the Hearthstone Keepsake Box Replica made by Happy Worker :v:

The box looks really good and has some nice details like real metal hinges with patterns on it and on the inside of the Keepsake Box is the World of Warcraft world map which is made of canvas

The highlight comes when you open the Keepsake Box. Upon opening, the rune lights up and pulsates while it plays the Hearthstone theme song. :drool:

The box is made of polystone and lined with velvet. The box measures 8.5"x11"x3", the weight is about 11lbs / 5kg

[elliott.garrick]

Hey Barran, I'm a bit late to this party but I really want to say that your collection is spectacular. I love the Heroes Archangel (so many memories) and Darksiders statue. My collection is really small compared to yours. Congratulations!

[goldfalcon]

did you sell war and ruin ?mow great collection

[Barran]

i found last week another statue which was on my most wanted list, unfortunately i missed the pre order back in the days, so i was very happy to get this one because its pretty hard to get this bad boy now because its limited to 400 worldwide

So here we have it, the Asuras Wrath Statue from Tsume!

Asuras Wrath was a unique experience, so much rage, omg that game blew my mind, one wtf moment after another, :nosleep: so i had to get this statue to keep this experience in honor, and finally here it is!

The Pose from the statue is really awesome, you really can see the rage in Asuras Face, and he is about to beat down this poor little Doji, just look at his face ^^
The Paintjob on this statue is very good, so much details, especially the base is very detailed with a metallic looking paintjob, i love it.

a nice little goodie is the metal plate you can put beside the statue with the Tsume and Asuras Wrath Logo and the limited number on it, in my case 315 / 400.

the size of the statue is about 42cm / 16 inch tall and weights 6kg, made of resin and some PVC, limited to 400 world wide

I ordered the Darksiders 1 statue in a shop in the Netherlands, the Darksiders 2 statue in a shop in germany and the Hell Yeah statue and the Asuras Wrath statue i found on ebay.
i know what you mean, i have not seen them again since i bought them... :no:

But do not give up, sometimes it takes longer... i have also sometimes given up the hope like the Asuras Wrath statue, but than it shown up on ebay outta nowhere :thumb:

[Merch]
