STATUE COLLECTOR KINDA WISHES STATUES HAD MORE ARTICULATIONS

There are so many great brands and it's a great time to be a statue collector... but it would be great if some of them had some articulations…



BREAKING NEWS:

STATUE COLLECTOR KINDA WISHES STATUES HAD MORE ARTICULATIONS


"There are tons of amazing statues nowadays: Prime1 Studio with their huge 1/3 scale statues, Iron Studios and their epic Marvel and DC battles series, Queen studios and their lifesize realistic statues, XM Studios, the Sideshow Polystone ones, etc... There are so many great brands and it's a great time to be a statue collector... but it would be great if some of them had some articulations..."

Those are the controversial words from Yann, a statue collector from France, who started collecting statues over two decades ago, starting with the Marvel Comics statues from Bowen Designs, before moving on to bigger and bigger things, litteraly.

"At the time, I could fit a dozen statues on a shelf. They were not taking too much space. But nowadays, we get those beautiful but gigantic pieces with a huge cape going in one direction, or the leg kicking in the other direction, or a spear going upwards, or some huge base, and it takes so much space that I can't display more than one or two on each shelves... Now hear me out... What if the statues had articulations? Let's say on the kicking leg, an articulation so that it could bend a little, so that I could display another huge piece next to it! Wouldn't it be amazing? Why do those statues always have to have such huge dynamic poses anyway? Can't there also be 'Museum poses' too?" (referring to the "standing straight, arms along the body, face looking forward" pose, the lazy "right out of the box, no dynamic posing" kind).

ToyFarce News asked Chris from the awesome "Batman Statue Collector" YouTube channel, the brotherhood of the Bat-collectibles (Seriously! We really did!) for his opinion about what Yann said:
"I totally agree with Yann. Action poses tend to be really boring to me.  I prefer my statues to be as stagnant as possible to not distract from the other smaller scale statues in my collection.   I prefer statues in the 1/10 scale range that have as little detail as possible and I realistically want them to look like barbie dolls, which I absolutely LOVE!! The more articulation and brushable hair, the better!!"

We hope Yann will someday find a happy medium in which he could collect statues, but also add a few action figures to satisfy his need for articulation.
