Does anyone know where I can purchase this cool looking replica bust of Christensen as Anakin Skywalker in the burn make-up from Revenge of the Sith?

According to YourProps, this piece was based on an original casting of Christensen's head with the original film make-up applied. A clay press of this casting (which extended to just below the neck) was made and the rest of the piece was sculpted out by master make-up artist Dave Elsey, who created the make-up for the film. All of the stunning paint and finish work was also done by Elsey.

I'm not sure, but I thought that was a one off he did for himself.

I don't know if it was intentional, but the gloss in the eyes double as tears. Each time I see this piece, it evokes the loss of Padme and, despite all he had done - killing the Jedi and the younglings - he never gained his Love back from death. Lucas described the prequels as the Tragedy of Darth Vader. One photo, here, of his eyes says it all.

As I understand it, this was a Lucasfilm piece to explore the look of the burnt Anakin makeup. I don't believe it was ever a public offering.
