Where did you get that? It does looks like the head of the Leptys statue but yet it isn't really exactly that.

Looks to me like a Leptys statue that I shared from eBay recently.

If it's not heavy then wouldn't it be made from fibreglass?

Nice one either way!

Yeah it's the Leptys statue. I got it from an individual from Germany. He also posted it on eBay and so I thought maybe now that it was available for a wider audience than previously, my chances would dwindle. But no, he was a very good seller, respectable to work with and what not.

The best person to ask about what it's made of would be That3D guy if that's how it's correctly spelled. That guy is way more intelligent than me. :P All I know is I had to be very careful just holding the head around the house.

All I can say is that I got a very good deal. I can't believe I'm being secretive with the price but I've spent too much time on other collector forums that I've learned that you can really make someone your enemy by revealing the price of a highly wanted/collectors item as it can sometimes hurt its value in the present and/or future. So that's all I'll say.

But yeah, that's that. Now if only I could get my hands on the Shroom figure!

LMAO, people who get butthurt over stuff like that are pathetic. I won't try to make you tell the price but you should know that I would never be angry at someone who got something for good deal. Heck I like when somebody gets something cheap since I always try to aim for same.
If you didn't consider me enemy because I won the Press Kit, there is no way I would consider you enemy by price reveal. If you got it for $50-$100 then I would congratulate you. Only selfish kind of collectors would be mad. Collectors I hate the most are the ones obsessed with high prices and the ones who don't share rare games, demos and prototypes with others.

I have the same opinion.

I remember when I was little and me and my brother had the Rayman Zone magazine, and we kept having fantasies about owning the Rayman statue and the costume :P. We agreed that while having a giant Rayman would be amazing, there was no room in the house, and that both items were probably really expensive (which is true, from what I've seen). The Rayman costume is really cool though, I remember trying to find pictures of it on Dial-up internet :mrgreen:

I would rather get the Leptys statue for that price.

Same. I would pay maximum 80 Eur for costume.
There was once Leptys statue eBay auction with very similar price like costume but only option for selling was local pick up in Germany. Also, the biggest problem about Leptys statue is that if someone is shipping worldwide and does not include free shipping option, buyer would end up probably paying around double price.

When stuff are superior to 2/3 KGs shipping does gets more costy, believe in me. (I remember once I had to pay around 45€ for something coming from UK that had more than 3KGs xx')

Ouch, that is quite expensive. I recently sold PS2 with bunch of games in Texas and person buying it from me had to pay $90 for shipping. Package was around 7 KGs. I do hope everything arrives nice to him.

No, I didn't even bid on them.
