Emma Frost
and Mary Jane give Marvel nerds the T&A they demand. |
Sideshow Collectibles sells more high-end
collectibles for the discriminating fan that has large canvas sacks of money
with "$" printed on the side. Walking through their booth is more like walking
through a museum of movie memorabilia. Their products are high quality,
extremely limited, and their prices are astronomical at times. If you are rich
and nerdy, Sideshow is where you go.
Sideshow is best known for their movie and
television collectibles, but also makes items based on games and comics. There
were two Street Fighter statues on display with Ryu and Akuma along with a
statue of Lara Croft from Tomb Raider Legend. Croft wasn't the only woman
on display, as Sideshow had sexed-up statues for Marvel's Emma Frost, Mary Jane,
and the Black Cat. Frost's breasts look like they are about to burst.
There were many Alien and Predator statues, along
with prop replicas of a Predator mask, the cool shuriken with the pop-out
blades, and a plasma cannon. On the Terminator side there was an endoskeleton
skull, a smaller T-800 statue, and a bust of a battle-damaged Arnold.
Most of the statues stand from 18-20 inches tall,
but is that isn't big enough there are life-sized items as well. I didn't even
realize that the life-size statues of C3PO and R2-D2 were actually things you
could buy until Paul said something. These things were in the thousands of
dollars. It was the same with the life-size terminator T-800 endoskeleton.
A small gallery of Sideshow's collectibles
follows below.

Ryu, calmly
readies for a fight... |
...against a
super pissed-off Shin Akuma. |
Croft
chillin' with Excalibur. |

The Black
Cat statue with her nifty concept art behind her. |
At least
it's not an Alien Resurrection statue, but I think they make those,
too. |
The
life-size T-800 will violently terminate your bank account. |

 |
|
You're
practically halfway to a full Predator costume with these. |
No mater the
size, your money is a goner. |
