NOW AVAILABLE! Bib Fortuna™ Concept Maquette Replica – Signature and Legacy Editions!
UPDATE – THESE EDITIONS ARE NOW AVAILABLE ON OUR OUR ARCHIVE COLLECTION PAGE!
The latest replica in our Archive Collection is the Bib Fortuna™ Concept Maquette. The classic character from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi™ is part of our Star Wars™ Archive Collection, a continuation and expansion of our work creating authentic replicas with impeccable lineage.
Along with a Signature Edition of just 100 pieces, each of which comes with a plaque hand-signed by creature sculptor and legendary monster maker, Phil Tippett… we’re also offering a very special Legacy Edition which goes beyond a signature edition to provide each owner with a truly unique work-of-art.
Limited to just 83 pieces, each hand-painted maquette in this Legacy Edition will include a premium expanded plaque including a one-of-a-kind Bib Fortuna sketch hand-drawn by Tippett, who not only sculpted this maquette but also was the head of the Return of the Jedi creature shop.
This maquette was the first step in designing the Bib Fortuna character and makeup effects. With hands-on access to the original film artifact and high resolution 3D scanning, our team crafted a faithful recreation of the concept maquette for this fan-favorite Jabba’s palace alien from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi™.
At approximately 8 and 5/8″ tall (including the wood display base), each is cast in solid, heavy resin. 100% made in the U.S.A., every replica in this edition is meticulously hand painted by the artists in our New York studio, making each a unique tribute to the artistry involved behind the scenes of our favorite films!
Do not miss this extraordinary opportunity to bring home not just an authentic replica, scanned from the original artifact, but also an original work of art with a direct connection to the artists that inspire us!
