The Regal Icons line of bronze-style busts by Regal Robot, known for spotlighting characters from films like Star Wars and Indiana Jones, now moves behind the camera to honor the artists who brought these movies to life.
Today, Tom Savini joins stop-motion visionary Phil Tippett in the company’s “Icons of Special FX” bronze bust line, which will be expanding with even more releases in the coming months.
Savini – an actor, director, and pioneering special effects artist whose groundbreaking work shaped films from Friday the 13th to Dawn of the Dead and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 – was likely responsible for whatever terrified or disgusted you in the ’80s.
“I consider Tom Savini my first FX teacher. I learned how to sculpt, mold and even punch hair reading Tom’s incredible ‘Grande Illusions’ books where he shared the secrets behind his inspiring makeup effects and creature work,” said Regal Robot company founder, Tom Spina.
“I spent countless hours as a teenager in my basement laboratory, following the tips in those books and making rubber heads and monsters! In the years since, as a film prop conservationist, my studio has had the honor of restoring incredible treasures of Savini film history from Creepshow, Friday the 13th, Tales from the Dark Side, Day of the Dead, and more! When we dreamed up the Icons line, Tom Savini was one of the first on our list and we’re so honored to pay tribute to this legend and his work!”
Masterfully sculpted in a fine art style, these distinctive busts are made to display anywhere, not just among your horror toys and memorabilia. Elevate your decor with our refined approach that lets you celebrate the artists who inspire us with “stealth-geek” flair – an insider’s tribute that’ll feel right at home whether displayed among your collectibles, adding character to a bookshelf or desk, or even standing proudly alongside your other decor on the mantle.
Made under license with Savini, each hand-painted resin bust has authentic touches like a realistic bronze finish with a layered patina that enhances the classic detailing. Scaled to approximately 7” tall, premium crafting gives each a heft and weighty feel.
The bronze-style busts are just $49 and set to ship in just a few weeks. .
