He belongs in a collection with the Tacky Stretchoid Warriors.... or maybe Stretch Armstrong. The forgotton brother of Magnus: Spam Fighter.

More from Dark Horse about the next line of statues which they are planning...

"In the very early stages of the Cenozoic era, primitive man used to mold statues or 'figures' of themselves out of their own excrement. We at Dark Horse have tried to basically imitate this with a continuation of this form of sculpting. As a result our next line of statues will be made fresh out of human faeces.The best way that I can describe them is 'primitive but charming'"

The texture aside, there are some serious issues about anatomy that need to be discussed with the artist who created this. I mean unless Magnus just took a dip in the arctic sea, his boys should be swinging freely in the wind....
:hm:

What gets me is that this thing is about 5 inches tall. 50 bucks is a lot to pay for a statue that size let alone being mass produced and intentionally crappy.

I can make one of those for you guys tomorow. I just have to remember not to flush.

I did not think it would be possible for me to think Sean Chen was any cooler.

That's what I get for thinking. :hm:
