Hi Flatout,

It took 6 vendors to create that statue (including a little fabrication from your's truly), and then I assembled it. Made three of them, actually. The effects company that did the head are close friends of mine, and they recently sent this incredibly kind gift to me to display in my office at Sony.




I think the bust idea is a good compromise. A lot of people can't afford to collect full statues of characters and it also gives us a chance to revisit some older characters. The goal is to keep these in the $75-80 range. Some of the busts will be hard to keep that low because a bust like Galahad has so many paint applications with that detailed uniform. It will also depend on whether we have a pre-existing high res digital model to work with, or if I have to pay a sculptor to create it. But, I'm very excited about doing this line. They will be produced in a fairly limited run (possibly only 300-500 units of each).

Thanks,
Gary

The bust idea sounds great.




Maybe a bust with the knights but have it be like a mantle of busts with all the knights in one half oval? That way it is one statue. It would be like a display in the building of The Order (like a "here are our honored knights" type thing).
