That is amazing!
That is undoubtedly the closest sculpture I have ever seen to an original Frazetta work. Just amazing...
Agreed, I think the artist nailed the likenesses and pose. This looks to be a great monster item. Small edition also.
I agree,too. The sculptor did an amazing job. When you do a sculpture from a flat painting you have to make up what the characters look like from all angles and he did an excellent job.
I posted this once before but just in case someone didn't see it, here it is.
Click on the link then scroll half way down and you'll see this sculpture from all angles and there's some close-ups as well.

That is really cool but the price is a little steep for me right now.
Great Piece!!
If you go to the Reelart Studios web site you can sign up for their newsletter. I believe they are offering a discount to newsletter subscribers. This is at the factory now, and should be in the states before Christmas. Our studio did the paintmasters for this project. We recently reviewed a painted sample from the factory, and they did a terrific job of copying the paint scheme we provided. This is liable to sell out quickly because it has the crossover appeal to Frazetta fans who have purchased other statues from that line, as well as monster fans who may only be interested in this particular Frazetta statue.

Beautiful job - your studio should be proud. From the previews I've seen this looks awesome. The sculpt is amazing; who's the artist?
I will sign up for the newsletter!!
Very cool. It's looks like Drac is shaking his fist saying 'Whatever happened to my Transylvania Twist?'

Thanks for the information - your studio has created some awesome work. I'm also appreciative of your additions to this forum, especially from the artistic/production/marketing perspective of the hobby.
Real COOL! Man I Love this.
Just an FYI, this statue should be showing up this week in comic and specialty shops.
awesome but the price hurts my head :P ouch!
I received my Frazetta Dracula Meets the Wolfman statue from Reel Art Studios yesterday and think it's amazing, well worth the cost. Beautiful production, packaging, and shipping - all around the thing rocks. Highly recommended! :)
Awesome piece, whats the retail on this bad boy?

I bought mine with a early discount from ReelArt Studios, but it comes out to about the same pricewise as shown here, see: http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=DH10775&mode=retail (http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=DH10775&mode=retail)
Not cheap, granted. The work is first rate - parallel to anything put out by Sideshow. Awesome. Hope this helps.

In my opinion this is the first Frazetta statue that really captures the feel of the source material. I think they did just a super job on it.
How about a picture? (of yours, not the "stock" picture) Love to see it.
Thank you for the compliments. We are happy to see that fans are digging this piece. There were a few people who thought going with a straight copy of Frazetta's palette was a bold choice. Green fur with orange highlights isn't the first colors you consider when painting a werewolf. All those involved with this project appreciate your compliments

That is why it works so well! You kept Frank's interpretation intact. Congratulations to whoever made that decision, for having the guts to stick with the artist's vision!
