The fine folks at UK online retailer ShopTo.net give us our first in-depth look at the innards of incredibly large Halo: Reach Legendary Edition, nearly breaking it in the process.
Why spend $US140 on a regular 15-inch-tall Super Sonic the Hedgehog statue when you can spend $US160 on one that glows? First4Figures extends their Sonic licence with the powered-up version of Sega’s mascot.
Halo Reach is Bungie’s last hurrah in the Halo universe, and they aren’t saying goodbye without a lovely Limited Edition and one final, ultra-expensive Legendary Edition.
Do you think you are the world’s biggest Gears of War fan? You ain’t nothing. Not until you fork over $US549.99 to have a full-scale Locust drone bust in your living room. TriForce Sales, LLC have announced the finalised version of their Gears-inspired Locust drone bust, sculpted by Epic Games Art Director Chris Perma. Weighing in at fifteen pounds and measuring more than a foot and a half tall, it’s an extremely intimidating piece of art that I wouldn’t want to run into on the way to the bathroom in the middle of the night. It’s the type of statue you put in a room you plan on never having sex in. The Locust bust is now available for pre-order, shipping in early 2009. God help us all. Screens on the link.
First 4 Figures have done very good things with the Metroid licence, from the classic Varia Suit to the sexy Zero Suit Samus, but their latest creation leaves their previous efforts in the dark. Phazon Suit Samus. Being infected with a glowing mutagen has never looked so good!
The statue is crafted entirely in transparent resin, with over 25 LED lights incorporated to give it the unhealthy Phazon glow, and the who thing is mounted on a mirror base that ties the whole effect together. Standing at 11 inches tall, Phazon Suit Samus is very pretty, but also pretty rare at only 1,500 pieces worldwide, and pretty expensive at $US 224.99. If you’ve got the funs and are so inclined, hit up the order page immediately to make sure you get yours when they are released in early 2009. Hit the jump for two more pictures of this spectacular piece.
