Pop Culture Shock Presents Darkness from Legend 1:3th Mixed Media Statue
August 7, 2014

Product Pre-order Launches Aug 11th

LOS ANGELES, Aug 7th 2014 (BUSINESS WIRE)—   In 1985, Ridley Scott released an amazing fantasy epic into theaters worldwide. Legend introduced viewers into a young Tom Cruise, a fantastical world, and one terrifying antagonist: The Lord of Darkness (portrayed by Tim Curry).  

Now in 2014, Those expert craftsmen at Pop Culture Shock have announced an amazing collectible, a 1:3th scale mixed media statue of Darkness, capturing all the otherworldly-detail of the dark one.

“The Lord of Darkness is easily one of the greatest cinematic villains of all time,” said Jerry Macaluso, President of Pop Culture Shock, “His appearance in the film is simply a masterpiece of practical effects.”

“This piece marks a new evolution for me and my team. We’ve increased the size dramatically, we are using real acrylic eyes & teeth, something you are more likely to see on a movie set then you are in a toy store. This is a serious collectible, we spared no expense.”

NOTE: Due to the cost and uniqueness of this museum quality piece, this item will NOT be widely available through regular retail channels. The majority of stock is being held for direct sales, so your best opportunity to own this stunning statue is via PCS’s pre-order sale.

AFi founder and Editor-In-Chief Daniel “Julius Marx” Pickett has been around toys his whole life. The first line he ever collected was Mego’s World’s Greatest Super Heroes line back in the 70s. He has been surrounded by collectables ever since. In 1999 he was confounded by a lack of information and news about some of his favorite toy lines he was collecting. Since he couldn’t find the information he decided to pursue it himself thinking other people might also be interested in the same news. He started writing a weekly column on the toy industry and action figure for a toy news site and in a years time he tripled the sites daily traffic with his updates, reviews and product features. He built relationships with every major toy manufacturer and many sculptors, painters and mold makers. He grew his hobby into a world wide expertise that the industry has embraced. In 2004 he teamed up with his toy buddy Jason “ToyOtter” Geyer and they created their own website www.ActionFigureInsider.com. Daniel has been quoted in both industry and mass media press outlets. Over the years Daniel and AFi have been sought out as experts in the field. Daniel was regularly featured on “Attack of the Show” on the G4 network as the primary contributor to their “Mint On Card” segment, and our front page has been linked to from USA Today’s “Pop Candy” Blog twice. Daniel’s content has also been featured on Bloomberg News, MSNBC.com, Time.com, The Wall Street Journal, The Saturday Evening Post, CNN.com, AssociatedPress.com Wired.com, Fark.com, Boing-Boing, Gizmodo.com, Ain’t It Cool News, the Official Star Wars blog, Geekologie, G4, CNet and Toy Fare magazine, among many others. He has consulted on toy lines, books, documentaries and TV shows. But all of that really just sounds snooty and “tootin’ his own horn” – the long and short of it is that Daniel loves toys and he LOVES talking about them.
