On Facebook, Matty has let fans know about a new event added to the SDCC schedule:
|
Then, on Friday we’ll run their new sculpt up to Mattel in El Segundo and use our rapid prototype machines to make a handful of one-off casts to raffle off on Saturday! Ain’t that cool?
So come on down to see just how the Mattel sculpting process works! Raffle tickets will be given out throughout the show.
Sculpting demos will be as follows:
Thurs: 11-1pm, 3-5pm
Fri: 10-11am, 4-6pmMatty
One more He-Man figure (statue?) that Mattel is keeping from the majority.
I know they peddle their wares on the website, but the inflatable sword, the art book, and now this. Hopefully, it will look like crap and I won’t want one.
Wow. Mattel is really into making the rarest figures they possibly can aren’t they?
It doesn’t get rarer than “We’ll run home and print off a couple.” lol

This was the comment of the day and not everyday even gets one.
i’m reminded of my favorite line from good will hunting… “all a ya… yar SUSPECT!” i think this move was a deliberate attempt to 1-up kotobukiya’s live demo… by a sculptor i’ve actually heard of. so they missed the mark, but that’s what i suspect was behind this move.
It does have the “that’s a good idea!” feel to it.
On a different note, I need a rapid prototype machine…
I have this He-man statue they are talking about. it is pretty amazing, I am selling it on E-bay. come take a look at it.
