This is a high end museum quality piece with lights, a base and remote. This is a life-size 7 foot tall statue of the Metaluna Mutant character from the classic 1955 film "This Island Earth". This statue offered today is being seen on several websites so I can't guarantee how long it will be available.
 
This Metaluna Mutant being offered today is 100% hand sculpted, this entire piece had to be painstakingly sculpted over several months to years and cost thousands of dollars to produce. It took over three and a half years to sculpt, mold, cast and put together just a few of these monsters.
 
This statue is fairly lightweight and made from rigid foam filled resin. You get 8 pieces and simple instructions. You get the base which has wheels for easy moving. The base has lighting behind the oval plaque that come on and off by an included remote control. The lights are color changing and make the outer space sky and stars look like they are moving and twinkling. The feet are laid onto the base and the body easily slides over two durable pipes inlayed into the base, the arms bolt on, the head rests on top the torso, lastly the back plate easily slides onto the back.
 
This is a museum quality piece and is the first and the only commercially available Metaluna Mutant ever produced. This is a very rare prototype that at some point might be officially licensed and similar statues produced. The sculpting is very detailed using archival photos and studying the frames from the original film.  The base is painted in subtle moonscape grays and browns. I went all out on the actual mutant pain scheme getting it as accurate as possible. The original mutant and this one has a unique painted body starting with a base color of a blue/grey. Then it was flecked with spots of lighter and darker blue/gray over the entire body. The eyes are eye lenses painted from the reverse with glow in the dark paints so the veins in the eyes glow in the dark. The mouth area is sealed in a very wet looking gloss to make the mouth look wet and alive. It took sometime but I found a special metallic paint to paint the pants. In the original film the actor wore pants that was a shinny metallic looking material. To replicate that shinny material I use a special blend of metallic pants I created so they really pop when you see them. The belt has two chrome snaps on the back like the original. The belt also has a raised atomic symbol on the hip just like the original. On mine I made the atomic symbol stand out by painting it glow in the dark with a special holographic paint over it. From a distance the atomic symbol looks white but up close it changes color as you walk by it. It's very futuristic looking. The head has air brushed crevasses over it and the entire statue is sealed with a matte sealer to protect it.
 
 The basic charges for shipping and Professional crating is around $700.00 to $1,000.00 with insurance.  It would cost more to ship overseas. Our shipper does a great job at over packing everything and the statue is delivered to you on a couple pallets. It takes less than 10 minutes to set this up once it is unpacked.
 
This is a great item to own and again not for everyone. It comes with the nuts and bolts and a remote system you simply plug the base into. There are only a couple of these mutants that will be made before the molds are put into storage and they will no longer be made so if you're thinking about buying one and you have the means please contact me now before they are gone.
