A different ralph cold cast staute?
 
Does anybody know what the deal with this raphael statue, never seen it before but the seller says its form playmates so I don't know if thats legit or not?http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...5030&rd=1&rd=1

Yeah, I've been watching this with curiosity, myself.

It looks good enough to be legit, but I can't say anything with certainty. The item is located in Hong Kong, and it's not unusual for stuff to leak out of Hong Kong before they hit the general market. What's interesting is that it's 2K3 style. The video games showed concept art for movie-style busts, but this definitely doesn't go with that.

Wow this is crazy it reminds me allot of the A.C. Farley Leonardo bust from some years back infact thats what I thought it was at first but tweeked but it's obviously not.
It's pretty damn nice if you ask me!

Tinuvielsdreams 04-25-2007 08:59 PM

wow that is really cool, and one of Raph's signature poses.
It's only 6 inches though? Seems like it would be bigger but still totally cool!

I hadn't even paid attention to the size it said - it does look like it should be at least 12" tall. Curiouser and curiouser...

No worries, I have no plans to bid. :)

But if you've been looking for this for two years, do you have more info about what it actually is?

Shark_Blade 04-26-2007 06:46 AM

Interesting...but if it's Leo or Mike I'll definitely bid straight away.

there's alot of it right there :D

I'm only hoping I win it, I usually lose my bids by a penny. :(
All I know about it, it was on display at Comicon couple years ago. it was on one of them action figure websites...i can't remember the name of it!!! its really popular. but it was supposed to be released about a year ago. no clue why it wasn't. This is a Playmates release, not a Mirage deal. That's why it's 2K3 Raph. I loooovvvveeee the detail on him. It gives the 2K3 Raph some substance. He's got skin textures, and huge manly hands...dang...i wonder if a chick designed it? hahahahahaaaa

Here is some info on it from actionfigure.com

Buslady 04-26-2007 05:34 PM

Tinuvielsdreams 04-26-2007 08:25 PM

haha I noticed the stray L but didn't want to pick, I for one am a horrible speller and have no room to judge.

Buslady I am going to check you link now thanks :)

dripgutz24 04-26-2007 08:55 PM

Sorry about the bad spelling people I'm not that great of a spellar, ha ha I meant speller, I was meaning to say Raph.

yeha its annoying but pointless sometimes

now if i was role playing raph and he saw that....:o he hates being called Ralph...

anyways yeah if i get that piece, it'll be like a focal point in the Raph Shrine. I love that thing. I had a decal made for the car in that image...unfortunantely, my old car was wrecked and I need to make a new one cos the decal place was bought out and the new owners DUMPED MY IMAGE! ARRRGGGHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

pissed me off...

Shark_Blade 04-27-2007 10:07 AM
