Tooth Face Concept Maquette Replica – Chris Walas Signature Edition

$399.00

Limited Stock Available to Order

Our Star Wars™  Archive Collection’s newest replica is the mixed-media, Tooth Face, part of our work creating authentic replicas with impeccable lineage.

Later known as “J’Quille” the Whiphid alien, our team crafted a faithful recreation of this concept for a classic Star Wars: Return of the Jedi™ creature that lurked the halls of Jabba the Hutt’s palace.

This distinctive Signature Edition of just 150 pieces includes a plaque signed by Oscar-winning creature maker, Chris Walas, who sculpted the original maquette for the film’s production.

This particular sculpture was made while the creature team was exploring what aliens might look like for the film.  With hands-on access to the original film artifact, high resolution 3D scanning and carefully matched faux fur, our team crafted a faithful recreation of this early concept for the classic characterAt approximately 6″ tall (including the wood display base), each solid-resin maquette is meticulously hand painted in multiple layers and then fur is hand-applied by the artists in our New York studio, making each a unique tribute to the artistry involved behind the scenes of our favorite films!

Best of all, our artists are already working on the first waves of production of these replicas and we expect paid-in-full orders to ship within just a few weeks!

Do not miss this extraordinary opportunity to bring home not just an authentic replica, scanned from the original artifact, but also an original signature and direct connection to the artists that inspire us!

Each statue in this signature edition includes a metal plaque and COA. Each is hand packed in a gloss black box with die-cut foam insert, and double-boxed for safe shipping.

The Archive Collection - Recreating an Artifact

During the production of films, the creature effects team will often dream up new and fantastic aliens and beasts by creating small scaled sculptures, called “maquettes,” to showcase their ideas. From this menagerie of maquettes, the film’s director and producer choose which characters will be brought to life for the film as costumes or puppets and what roles they will play in the story.

Sculpted by legendary creature designer, Chris Walas, this concept bust was an early design for a creature known at the time as Tooth Face! Walas said he took inspiration from a wild boar in crafting this concept.

We are excited to share this Archive Collection and look forward to sharing our latest art and characters with you. Be sure to follow @RegalRobot on social media to keep up with all of the new collectibles we have in the works.
