A different ralph cold cast staute?

dripgutz24 · 04-25-2007, 08:16 PM

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.

I just bought four TMNT plushies so I need to stay away from Ebay

Any pics of said shrine?

http://buslady.mysite.com/photo_3.html

there's alot of it right there

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

Just playin'... but it's still awfully irritating.

*Tinuvielsdreams* · 04-26-2007, 08:25 PM

yeha its annoying but pointless sometimes

now if i was role playing raph and he saw that....

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
