Sideshow Collectibles Kerrigan Queen Of Blades Statue

Sometimes collectors may just want to consider something eerily weird, sexy and an amazing crazy looking statue to admire and that have to be Kerrigan the Queen of Blades statue from the popular Starcraft II game. Kerrigan most outstanding looks is the spider or tarantula tentacle arms which are recreated in an over the top representation of the creature.

A creature consumed by pure rage, Kerrigan has been infested, tortured, and hunted. Now measuring 25 inches tall, the once-terran ghost of Sarah Kerrigan emerges from her chrysalis, reborn as a vengeful new agent of the Zerg Overmind with the fate of the universe in her hands. Capturing Kerrigan's feminine yet alien characteristics with extraordinary handcrafted detail, the Kerrigan Queen of Blades Statue will be a must-have for StarCraft fans.

 I need a comb
 I'm not a late bloomer
 Need to do some stretches
 Baboon will be envy of me
 Spiderwoman make way for Kerrigan
 You can call me pointy sharpy blade lady
 Grasshopper legs hairdo
 This ain't sugar cane
 H.R Geiger style?
 The nite owl
 Moon bathing
 Smile N Pose
Let my cuddle you under my arms

Prime 1 Studio Starscream Statue

Just when you think you have seen enough of Transformers IV bombarding your senses, Prime 1 Studio has already revealed their version of Starscream in an insanely intricate painstakingly over the top statue in the recent SDCC2014. This is another top of the line high end statue from Prime 1 Studio after the Megatron being one of the biggest statue available for the masses. These statues are really huge and taking quite a lot of space. 

I guess by the time you have accumulated all the Transformers from Prime 1 Studio, you probably would have a mini museum in your house. They also have a separate bust version of the statue which is also not bad for budget collectors.

 I can give your back a scratch if you need one
 Where's Megatron?
 I'm not your average pencil sharpener
 I need to watch my back also,..sometimes
Getting ready! Set! Go!
 I'm ain't jet lag
 The way to Cybertron is that way
 I just can't seem to lift off from this base
 Nuke Em!
 A bit of Side Show
 So many circuits so little time
 I'm not a two face
See you around in your shelf very soon

Prime 1 Studio TMNT Raphael Polystone Statue [INCOMING]

Just a day ago we get to see some prototype work by ThreeZero, Prime 1 Studio now has already shown some early look at its Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Raphael polystone statue. This is one huge impressive statue at 55cm (22") 1/4 scale. 

Prime 1 Studio has been churning out some really impressive statue with their 1st release of Megatron recently and their upcoming Optimus Prime is looking extremely crazy realistic. Their next instalment is Starscream and it does really capture every little details from the Decepticon character. However, the prize tag for these polystone statues are not for the average collector. These are no doubt the holy grail or jewel of the crown in high end collectibles.

 There's 4 of us...dig deep inside your pockets
I seem like having a tad bit too much bandages

ThreeZero Prototypes [INCOMING]

Yep! we have just dig up some new interesting scoop cooking up already at ThreeZero. Today our INCOMING will feature a rather interesting early prototype look at not one but two figures. On the right, we are possibly looking at 2 of the recent movie version figures of the popular Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. 

On the left of the photo is the Armored Personnel Unit (APU) from the movie The Matrix Revolutions. This figure or mech suit was released some time way back by McFarlene Toys under the title Mifune's Last Stand. Mifune's Last Stand APU mech suit is now selling probably triple the original market price on ebay. I guess ThreeZero has just fulfilled most collectors dream with this amazing APU mech suit which also reminds me of the powerloader from Aliens and soon to be re-release by Hot Toys.

ThreeZero prototypes
However, Prime 1 Studio is also producing the statue of Raphael character but coincidentally ThreeZero has an almost identical pose compared to ThreeZero prototype. It might just be a direct 3d printed from the 3d assets of the character. We just have to wait and see whether any new shots of the figure arise later.
