Valiant Teams with Quarantine Studio to Release Exclusive Statues
For fans of toys and statues, Valiant has just the thing for you. They are partnering with Quarantine Studio to release an exclusive set of limited edition statues featuring Valiant’s vast array of heroes.
The first Valiant/Quarantine release, scheduled for 2014, will be the X-O Manowar Deluxe Edition Statue, based upon the art of superstar artist Marko Djurdjevic. Sculpted in polyresin and standing 14 inches high on a 9 inch by 10 inch base, the first-ever sculptural representation of Valiant’s signature hero will recreate Djurdjevic’s iconic cover art to X-O Manowar #12 – a key centerpiece of the “Planet Death” storyline currently being published the X-O Manowar monthly series. The hero then begins a brand new adventure this July in X-O Manowar #15 – the first issue of an all-new story arc by New York Times best-selling author Robert Venditti and fan favorite artist Lee Garbett.
“The most amazing thing about our working on this tremendous catalog of titles and characters is that the Valiant brand has, up until now, been untapped for the statue market,” said Quarantine Studio CEO Paul Conner and Creative Director William Paquet. “With every other major comic publisher having been licensed repeatedly over the past couple decades, Valiant has been lurking in the shadows, rebuilding its footprint to unleash itself back into the spotlight with supersonic concussion. To say we are thrilled to be a part of this renaissance is a gross understatement.”
Quarantine Studio was founded in the fall of 2008 and is one of the U.S.’s leading producers of pre-painted statues and faux bronzes, having previously produced works based on a wide array of properties including Robert E. Howard’s Conan, Frank Frazetta’s Death Dealer, and Topps’ Mars Attacks!
