Hey, GUTI,welcome to the forums!

That is indeed a nice sculpture. Can you give us any more info about it, such as who made it, are they part od a company or a solo designer etc?

BTW, please don't type in caps all the time, it look like you're yelling at us.

Cheers.

This appears to be a private commission by the sculptor. He is yet to decide on the number of statues he is going to do and has to finalize the pricing as well. He is also willing to paint the statue in different colors (purple, red, blue or brown).

I am all for creativity and more merchandise for the Phantom. But after visiting statue forums and reading more about licensed properties, I know mass production of statues of such a popular character without license is stepping into troubled water.

Lot of sculptors obviously do private commission based on licensed properties, but they are usually done on a one on one basis and are mostly low key transactions.

Either way... from the various pics this statue sculpt looks great and I want to see a purple painted version.

Ah that's better. Now I can see it. Hmmm it looks pretty cool. The Phantom sculpture I did looks like crap. But then it is quite small which is harder to get the details done. Awe that's no excuse I need to practice some more. Must... get... more... Sculpey!

Pfft. I hated sculpture when I was art art school. I made sure to devise all my classes and units so I wouldn't have to take the sculpture course.

Except for the base and holding guns, the sculpt design appears similar to the Electric Tiki Phantom statue.

Guti.. how much did you pay for this?
