“Umbrella Academy” Spaceboy Gets a New Statue from Dark Horse

The Umbrella Academy isn’t as popular as it was when the show hit Netflix last year. The clock is ticking though because once season 2 drops their comics, Funko’s, and collectibles could be in high demand. However, this collectible is perfect for those fans who have been on the Umbrella Academy train since the beginning with this new statue. Dark Horse Comics and Sideshow Collectibles are bringing Number 1 aka Spaceboy alive with a new maquette. This statue features Spaceboy in all of his comic book glory just the way the comic book artists wanted him. This 3D 14″ representation pulls him off the pages of the book and onto your shelves. From the coloring to the intricate details this statue should please any fan of the Umbrella Academy comic book series. I hope we can start seeing more characters to get their own retrospective comic book version statue in the future.

The Umbrella Academy Spaceboy Maquette by Dark Horse Comics and Sideshow Collectibles is very limited edition with only 300 pieces available. Spaceboy is priced at $300 and is set to release between February and April 2020. Pre-orders are live and you can find them located here.

Come in Number One.

Spaceboy Maquette by Dark Horse Comics

ABOUT THIS MAQUETTE

Sideshow and Dark Horse Comics present the Spaceboy Maquette!

Masterfully sculpted and painted, this Spaceboy Umbrella Academy Maquette evokes the character exactly as he appears in the comic series exactly as writer Gerard Way (My Chemical Romance, True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys) and artist Gabriel Bá (Two Brothers, Daytripper) conceived him to be. The likeness is uncanny, with bold shadowing and strange angles, right down to the fur on his oversized arms.

Standing at 14” tall, with a commanding stance at 19” wide, the terminauts wouldn’t stand a chance against this imposing leader of The Umbrella Academy!

Evangelion Returns Once Again with New Bandai Figure

The cult classic anime Neon Genesis Evangelion might have ended back in 1196 but that’s not stopping collectibles. We recently saw that Evangelion is getting a couple of Funko Pop vinyl figures. Now it looks like Bandai is releasing a special metal build of the famed EVA-01 character. The best part of this figure is that they have teamed up with the designer of Evangelion, Ikuto Yamashita, to give us a figure designed like no other. This figure is packed with accessories, detail, and very poseable and would be a perfect addition to any fans collection.

The EVA-01 Neon Genesis Evangelion Metal Build Figure from Bandai is priced at $280. This figure is set to release between February and April 2020, pre-orders are already live and located here. Take advantage of Sideshow and their payment plans if need be. This figure is beautifully crafted and designed which is perfect for this figure and should be owned by any Evangelion fan.

“The fate of destruction is also the joy of rebirth.”

The designer of Evangelion, Ikuto Yamashita, has joined forces with Bandai to create this METAL BUILD edition of the famed character, capturing its steel-and-muscle appearance as no other figure has before. The body features diecast metal parts and chrome plating for a luxurious weight and finish. Re-designed from the ground up, this incredibly posable portrayal of the EVA-01 is packed with visual detail and play value.
