Sideshow Toys, never ones to go half-n-half on anything, have put out a gorgeously sculpted and painted statue of Sarah Kerrigan, our favorite Terran-turned-Zerg from Starcraft 2. The price might scare off the average Terran tho!
Hotline Miami Statues On Kickstarter Run Out!
The official character description reads: "A creature consumed by pure rage, Kerrigan has been infested, tortured, and hunted. Now, measuring over 25 inches tall, the once-terran ghost of Sarah Kerrigan emerges from her chrysalis, reborn as a vengeful new agent of the Zerg Overmind with the fate of the universe in her hands. Capturing Kerrigan's feminine yet alien characteristics with extraordinary handcrafted detail, the Kerrigan Queen of Blades Statue will be a must-have for StarCraft fans."
I don't want to be a hand-wringer on such an exquisitely crafted piece of art, but I must agree with the first commenter on the Sideshow page, who says: "Looks good but I'm not so sure on the pose. She's a conqueror of worlds not a pinup." The painters weirdly did seem to put extra contrasting red on the breasts and buttocks of the figure. This is Kerrigan's game design, sure, but is it just me or are the colors really, uh, popping out here?
