Sleestak bust-ever seen one?

[DarthElvis]

I am wondering, has anyone ever seen a 1:1 Sleestak bust available? I am trying to get off of the beaten path a little bit with my displays, yet keep within subject matter that means something to me. As a kid, I loved Land of the Lost (I'm sure many others here did too). I would love to have a Sleestak bust, but am having no luck finding one. I suppose comissioning one could be a possibility, but I have no idea how to go about doing that. Any advice here would be greatly appreciated.

There were a couple of other cool parts of the show that would make for good displays. I seem to remember the Pylon's being pretty cool, and the rock table that had all of the jewels in it.

Anyhow, if anyone can point me in the right direction, I would be grateful.

This thread is brining out painful childhood memories. The sleestacks gave me nightmares. I thought I heard one breathing in my room one night. I ran downstairs, out of the house, and into the garage. Freaked my parents out.

I gave Season 1 DVD to my 7 year old godson for his birthday. He's the same age I was when the show came on. Yes, that makes me old. Anyways, we popped in one of the DVD's that featured the Sleestaks to watch. We get to the point in the main title where the raft goes over the "waterfall" - and he takes one look at this and says..... "Yeah. Right." Then, we get to the part with the Sleestaks and he goes "These guys aren't that scary, Uncle Gene".

Little ingrate destroyed my childhood.

Well, I guess I should have expected it since he's been brought up on Ray Harryhausen stuff (and has met him, too!). Kid's got good taste.

The next week I found out that his little brother (who is three) really likes them. Been watching all of them.

YES! That is exactly what I was looking for. It looks fantastic! I am guessing that you did the sculpt and he did the casting? Emailing him now.

I did probably 3/4 of the sculpting with Phil pitching in here and there, (especially on the neck scales) then when I thought it was done and said "OK, we're molding him tomorrow!" Phil went in after I left and "super-textured" him. Heh, I went in the next day and it looked even better!

I, too am looking to acquire one also. I will probably sculpt one myself, but I found this on eBay today with less than 2 days to go! Looks pretty good, but I'm not sure about their asking price. Anyways, here's the link:
