You’re gonna need a bigger shelf!
Walking around New York Comic-Con, it’s hard not to stop and gawk at the insanely detailed high-end statues on display at the Pop Culture Shock Collectibles booth based on Power Rangers, Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat… And H.P. Lovecraft?!
The Street Fighter statues include Dhalsim, Ibuki, and Akuma. At 1:4 scale, they’re definitely not small, but they’re dwarfed by the 1:3 scale Sagat, which is over three feet tall.
The Akuma is available in a regular version, which is $500, but also a $1000 deluxe version, which includes a light-up lava base, and an almost excessive amount of spare parts.
On the Mortal Kombat front, PCS was showing off Quan Chi, Kintaro, and Kotal Kahn. Kahn’s just ripped out someone’s heart, Quan Chi’s clutching a decapitated head.
Meanwhile, Kintaro apparently just got finished eating someone, but if you’re trying to be PG-13 you could always pretend he just won a pie-eating contest at the Outworld County Fair.
Much like Akuma, the Green Ranger is available in both regular and deluxe versions. The deluxe version, shown here, includes the massive Dragonzord-tail base for around a grand, while the regular version has a Power Coin base.
Oh, yeah. And they make a genuinely terrifying Cthulu.
