POTA Statue of Liberty?

[Wes R]

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.

there is a great thread about this over on the Planet of apes forum

 

[FANTAMATION]

you mean like this?

 

[Tony Hardy]

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

I didn't make this, a buddy of mine made this years ago

 

[CessnaDriver]

Those maniacs! They shrunk it! awww damn you, they shrunk it down all to hell!

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

 

[Wes R]

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

Put a cliff behind it...

 

[Wes R]

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... :lol

 

[Wes R]

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.

 

[Chrisisall]

I think I just found a new project!:rolleyes

 

[Wes R]

Glad I could overload someone with projects besides myself :lol

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

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.

 

[Wes R]

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