Default Things you'd want/love to have that aren't out there

Surely we all have something that pops into our mind sometimes that we'd love to have in our collection but that we haven't been able to find or isn't even out there.

Curious to see what your thoughts are, share them here!


For me it'd be a (proper quality) statue of the Audrey II from Little Shop of Horrors.

ZOMG. That would be amazing. I could see Mondo maybe getting around to that eventually...? I have a copy of this that I just can't bring myself to frame because nothing off the shelf seems worthy (and a proper custom job would just be too expensive still): https://mondotees.com/products/littl...iant=833218927

This is the kind of question I would (and probably will) spend days thinking about.... But off the top of my head, I would pay entirely too much money for a replica of the Dark Crystal if it was large and nice enough looking (or even if not, but since we're daydreaming, may as well make it nice). Or the Skeksis castle.

Someone on Etsy was selling a Falcor plush that was amazing, but then she got overwhelmed by requests is only selling the pattern now.

Game related, I'd pay almost anything for a Monkey Island diorama. Or a badass LeChuck statue (with transparent resin ghostly bits, oh man). I talked to the owner of Symbiote Studios about trying to get one of their statues after it had sold out but he couldn't get his hands on any....

I hope I'm allowed to say this, but I almost got to make a grail piece with Gary. I'm 97% sure this died even though he had an artist working on it for a while, so I think it's okay to bring up now? But we all were pretty close to living in a world with a really elaborate and large Rat Fink style Sweet Tooth statue.... [pours a 40 onto the office rug]

Also, since I'm already over-sharing, I almost got to own a recreation of the original DOOM cover art by one of my favorite screenprint artists. The art was done and everyone here loved it (me especially), but it got killed at the last second. Heartbreaking.

(There are so many dead projects I worked on here that could make the list. Those two aren't the ones that hurt the most, but they are the ones I would have been quickest to buy for myself.)

You made me really sad after talking about that cancelled Sweet Tooth statue Sounded awesome. If it is confirmed cancelled, would it be possible to post any concept art of it?

I would KILL for a big huge Elder Scrolls artbook, with concept arts from all the games released up to now. I would be even happier if it came in a leather slipcase, just like the Art of Uncharted 4 LE:


Maybe making a couple of books, i.e. one for Oblivion and the previous games, one for Skyrim and one for ESO, with some lithographs and the slipcase...that would be

I would also like to see some Elder Scrolls LE vinyl soundtracks.

I'd love to see some statues from Bethesda besides Fallout ones. A real statue of Garrett from Thief would be badass, along with a statue of Corvo and Emily from Dishonored.

EDIT: Wow, this brings up a lot of wants from me. lol

-Lithos from The Saboteur. Th game had far too many visually appealing themes and artistic scenes to not have any artwork out. Tragedy.
-Jack Joyce vs Paul Serene action/fight scene statue from Quantum Break. Would be hard to get correct but I'd pay a fortune for one done properly.
-Statue of Glitch from Metal Arms.
-High-quality statue of Jack of Blades or Reaver from Fable. They were too integral a part of the game to have been left out of the collector's memorabilia.
-Statue of Vito from Mafia II. Hell, anything from Mafia II. After the CE they pretty much made jack for the game which is outrageous.

I would love some more official replica ghosts from Destiny. There are a lot of designs in the game that I'd love to have.

There are so many things I want (both currently existing, and pipe dream) that I honestly can't decide. I'll get back to you x

I really want some premium statues for the Metal Gear series. So many awesome and unique character designs there.

I've also suggested before in Gary's threads an RFoM chimera bust and a replica Sly cane...

Some interesting replies!

Took a while myself to think about more things.
Came across these;

- Statue of the Audrey II from Little Shop of Horrors (1986)
- Crash Bandicoot statue(s)
- Spyro statue(s)
- Bigger posters from games/movies in general (in proper quality, not stretched out)

I would love to have a properly made statue of John Marston from Dead Red Redemption (maybe this exists, but i never saw one).
