I do that so much, it wound up becoming my job. I build stuff like this for major theme parks, movies, TV shows, video games, etc. Whatever the client can think of, I can make. But the one thing that's more fun than doing this professionally, is sharing with fellow fans. And that's what this project is about.

Basically what I made is a theme park/ movie quality miniature that we're taking straight to the fans. Thousands of hours of sculpting, molding, casting, and painting to create that iconic 80's image of a living mechanical world, shrunk down to the size of a wall clock.

This will be a limited production run, cast from my original masters. It will include translucent resin parts for the light-up city effect, metallic paint, and die cast bridges and over 500 individual buildings. Size is 12-14 inches in diameter and 6 inches deep. The statue is intended to be wall mounted or attached to the optional display stand.

Disclaimer: The pictures shown are of my hand-cast originals with the custom display bases I made for them. The final product will differ somewhat and I will post pics as soon as we have them. Also we have not determined yet what the final factory display stand will look like and whether it will be included or an add-on.

As I have already finished the sculpting and molding, this campaign is to fund the factory costs. While I can technically cast these myself, it is prohibitively expensive and so we are crowd funding a small factory run to make them affordable to everyone.

To make this process as smooth as possible, we have already sent the factory the samples for molding. I don't like holding on to other people's money, so we want to get these into production and shipped as quickly as possible. Given our experience with factory runs in the past, there is a good chance that we will be able to have these delivered by this summer.
