    Did anyone ever make a kit of this? It seems like it would be an awesome kit/diorama to have for fans of the movie.

    The only comment I have to offer is that I beleive the porportions were not true to life, to achieve forced perspective.

    WOW, That's nice! I have a garage kit that someone else produced, but I think FANTAMATION'S is better.

    That's awesome, if it were painted & had figures in the foreground I'd be absolutely stunned!

    Very cool. Yeah the proportions are screwy but i bet there is a way to still make it look good.

    True. I'm glad I'm not the only one who would like one. To be honest i'd love dioramas of the buried NYC and even the melted city above. I'm a huge post apocalyptic fan so dioramas of ruined cities would sell to me lol.

    I'd love to see (or make) a diorama of the underground mess from Beneath, myself! The New York Stock Exchange comes to mind...

    I wish i had the patience to build that kind of thing. You could make it a small scale for shelf display but still have good details.

    I've got a great little toy version of the statue made by Medicom in storage somewhere. Here is a site with a pic:

    Raving Toy Maniac - The Latest News and Pictures from the World of Toys

    I used to keep it on top of a big bowl of spare change in the living room. Every once in a while a houseguest would actually know what film it was from and have a laugh.

    I've been obsessing over Battlestar Galactica recently; it's time I rode the Hassline curve a bit!

    Lindberg Models produced a styrene kit of the Statue of Liberty. Of course, you'd have to chop it in half, weather it, and scratch build the base yourself, but it's an option.

    Very true. And I've always had fewer issues with their kits.
