If you are then take a look at these!
When I saw these images I thought it w3as that old modeller's trick of posing a figure at the right angle and distance. Boy, was I wrong!

"Lifesize Artstatues - in fiberglass - for sale at php 12,000 from artist sculptor Gerald Asilo of Geraplica Sculptoys - ASILO's sculpture for a "January Promo" price. Batman is a sure bet, Wonder Woman is a shoo-in, while I am on personally the fence with Superman LOL
According to Gerald on his Linkedin page:
"In the 1990s my father was a sculptor for the Japanese company Craftwood. The company asked him to sculpt their own design like life-size Disney characters, Loony Toons, etc. That was 1996 and I was only 12 years of age at that time. I was also practising how to sculpt because it's in the blood to sculpt. Here I am now, following my father's legacy and sculpting my own designs and also what any client requires."
I just have to say that these are freaking incredible! Now some of those "comic book cafes" need things like this! Imagine inviting a friend into your apartment and finding The Avengers or JLA standing there -or maybe even a Swamp Thing or Man-Thing to go in your garden!
Man, if I ever get rich!!!

Hi!
ReplyDeleteBeen looking at this company and have interest from customers abut them. When i checked the prices shown at even the highest being 18000 pesos which includes postage, that's about £750 UK pounds.
I asked for a price on a 7 feet tall Hulk so not much bigger than the figures shown.
Was quite shocked when I got a quote back for over £3500 UK pounds!! Way more than the listed prices so wondering who I am actually speaking with considering I contacted them through their Facebook page!
Thanks and bye, Steve from UK.
WHOA. That is so far out of the "ball park" it's incredible. I wonder whether they see a potential client from a wealthier country they bump up the price BUT that price just is not right.
