The breathtaking, limited edition Gethsemoni – Shaper of Flesh Premium Format™ Figure stands almost 22” tall, capturing the Queen of the Underworld in all of her haunting beauty and terrifying splendor. Combining both sculptural and fabric elements, this all-new creation showcases the intricate artistry of our signature Premium Format™ figures. Lavish, richly-textured fabric drapes across the Queen’s majestic form. She is crowned with a grotesque and stately headdress formed from a coxal bone. A semi-transparent base features intricate swirls of Flesh Faction necromancy gently enveloping the Queen’s regal feet and extending from her sovereign hand.

Interesting. I'll have to think about this one. I have the first QotD and mine turned out quite nicely, so not sure I want essentially the same as before but with a twist. And I'm fairly sure that 'Limited Edition' wouldn't mean a low up-front announced edition size, so I don't think I would need to order right away anyway.

The Underworld a such a rich world to explore with a vast array of characters that are only limited by the sculptors imagination and yet they are already revisiting the Queen, lame.

Lets hope her tattoos aren't wonky this time.

So damn sad that even in it's own line, SS is making "variants" and repeating characters.

finally a CoTD release. The Og bust is much nicer in colored. The new queen looks intersting, gotta see the full reveal though. I was hoping for something completely different, maybe her on throne made of her dead minions or something

Base sounds very interesting:

"A semi-transparent base features intricate swirls of Flesh Faction necromancy gently enveloping the Queen’s regal feet and extending from her sovereign hand."

I'm definitely excited to see the actual statue, as well as the new take on Kier they will most likely be doing.

Valderen
01-03-2017, 04:16 PM
I will most likely pass on this, I have the original that I quite like.

I will reserve final judgement until I see more of it, but first reaction is that I like the original better.

Definitely disappointed that they are revisiting characters so early in the life of the Court of the Dead, they have such a rich setting to explore.

The reveal of Malevostros at SDCC rekindled my interest in this line but if they are just going to rehash older characters then they've lost me again.

I was hoping the next COTD reveal would have been Ellianastis, that floating head look is very unique and creepy.

Wheres the new characters?

I think we will get both new and a few revisits. They said this will be a big year for CoTD. But im fine with revisits for the faction leaders, the new Kier statue looks pretty awesome on what ive seen so far. Hopefully they give the revisits a low ES.

they should just sculpt them in if they keep them, and honestly i dont think they can omit them at this point as they have already been depicted being apart of her design (and i dont think they have laser tattoo removal in the underworld but i could be wrong...)

This is becoming a trend it seems with SS. General, Batman(blue),Sabretooth, Red Sonja, now this. Not to mention the 4th Vampirella, it seems like they're just trying to kill any aftermarket value these attain. I understand different sculpts but I hate variants, especially year(s) after something "sells out".

At least do the variants up front like the new Hulk PFs were.

Red Sonja, Vampirella and this piece are totally different statues so I don't understand why were bringing up variants.

DeadGhostKnight
01-03-2017, 09:57 PM
It just makes me lose faith, were 10 characters in, only 6 have released and already they are revisiting....is the creative well drying up already?

I wouldn't mind if QOTD was terrible but it's a fantastic sculpt, super nice MM and a really sexy/classy statue. I know people had issues with her but they should have fixed those issues in the first place instead of creating a new version and charging people all over again....

NorthernLadMSP

Yeah you're right, but the question remains why 2 revisits already on an original line? :laugh:.

I kind of throw in variants and Sonja for example, because the new Sonja is considered much better just a year later. I'd be upset if I bought the first one only for them to come out with Will's version so soon after. Not taking anything away from the sculptor because it's great but the production/paint definitely was lacking compared to Will's statue.

Many think this market's bubble with burst sometime, it seems to me like SS's going to make it happen a lot faster if they keep this up(just my opinion of course).

Valderen
01-03-2017, 10:03 PM
I think someone at Sideshow is in love with their own creation, and we'll see more of the same, rather than expanding the line which is a shame, but it happens all the time.

They have a great live, tons of character to make...but they will keep on making these over and over because the creators are just in love with their core creation.

It's not like they made something that hasn't sold out yet, and could use that as an excused saying there is no demand beyond the core characters. They aren't even bothering.

As someone who owns 4 so far, and has 3 more on order...I'll it's utter bull---- on Sideshow's part.

I wouldn't mind a revisit if the Queen was 4-5 years old or something, but she sold in mid 2016...so it's recent.

Kovenor
01-03-2017, 10:42 PM
the year has just began... queen and kier are two of the most important characters in CoTD, just be happy they arent doing variants. They are still releasing lots of new characters this year (Death, Cleopsis, Demithyle, Shard), a new bust line..Also have new PO's coming for malavestros, kier 1, queen 2, and mortighull and others that they have teased. they have multiple projects/lines of CoTD going constantly but queen 2 is only in concept stage so she is years down the pipeline anyways.

Looks like kier is holding up a severed head? either way, looks like it could outdo the first one and the new queen also looks like it will be better, altho the outfit should have been different (queens embrace outfit would have went nicely with this one)

Got burned on the first QotD (both original and replacements should never have passed QC, plus SC wanted me to pay to return it), which has soured me for the entire line. Throwing up a new QotD when people are still waiting for all the other characters, from my perspective, is like a thumb in the eye.

Somebody at SC was probably thinking, "Our first one was poorly executed, but we still sold out. So let's do a new one and charge $200 more".

"The characters and creatures that make up the Underworld are constantly evolving both in their looks and their personalities. We also, want to give new fans a chance to own their favorite characters, most of which have long sold out figures. We have many new characters we will be introducing this year as well so be on the lookout for those. We appreciate your feedback though and hope you enjoy what is to come."

I'm really positive about this, revisits and all. In a "world" dominated by D.C. and Marvel characters (ad nauseum) - I'm 100% behind the development and furthering of original I.P.

Sure, the quality issues don't sound pleasant, but that would be a downer regardless of the I.P. or license.

I missed out on Keir and wasn't enthralled by the original QotD, so this is a real nice surprise, on all counts.

I really like the design of QotD and I see her being an easy sell. I too have a 'good' vrs1 and that is the one I will stick with as it is beautifully done. This seems to just add to the ethereal energy (can't remember what the energy source is called at moment) which all the subsequent releases seem to feature in some form or other.
Great to hear they are considering 1/6 scale.

It's very possible. If the costume of the statue is the same costume as the artwork posted on page 1, her chest piece looks like two floating bone structures not attached to anything.

I clearly spend to much time in Arahom's forum.

No argument there.

If it fits the character then by all means.

And thats the best way to go about it. What would the character do? Always best to try and get a feel for the subject.

I would have to argue that if theirs any character in the entire sideshow lineup that deserves a topless statue it would be queen of the dead. I mean her throne is a bunch of naked dead guys so u cant say she wouldn't be topless once in a while =p the option isn't even available with all the other lines such as marvel/dc/star war, etc.. only really possible with CoTD and the other females dont fit. couldn't imagine a topless Kier or Cleopsis.. or Shard/Xiall for that matter o.o SS is very prude Mark, dont let them hide your talents , excited for the full reveal though she looks even better then the first.

Don't drag me deeper into this ridiculous "topless" discussion. My 'talent' has nothing to do with making bigger and better boobs. SS only brings out the best of the artists they work with and allows creative exploration and collaboration. Statements like yours Kovenor "don't let them hide my talents" tend to make the artist that work on these pieces shy away from forums like this.

Time for me to tap out.

hey, sorry Mark! im just joking around, cant really take CoTD and topless too seriously =p just trying to make discussion. and TBH man one of your last statues with CoTD was topless so I think its unfair for you to call this discussion "ridiculous". anyways nothing but respect for you work! dont let me scare you away ill shutup now

Well they finally are going to release a variant / new Queen. But from the tease it doesn't seem as good as the original "variant" tease:

http://www.statueforum.com/showthread.php?p=4891682#post4891682

I'll watch and see but I believe I'm out on this line. I wanted Kier. She's sold out now. And I just couldn't go along with that possible dropping arm deal.

I see it this way:

Kier, Shard, Gethsemoni and Gallevarbe alle 4 CotD women have the best sculpted faces in any female statues I've seen in years. They look drop dead gorgeous, but in an evil, play-hard-to-get way. I never collected female sculptes before, but started when Gethsemoni was released. If the new Gethsemoni comes with a similar eerie but ice-cold-beauty look, I will order here within the blink of an eye.

I wonder if each collectibles manufacturer should just commission a generic sculpt of a naked women, so that each time someone wants indulge their naked statue fetish they can just go and buy that statue and be done.

If the CHARACTER and scenario call for the subject to be naked, fair enough, but this (constant) craving some collectors seem to exhibit to undress any and every character is just so old and stereotypical.....Gives us (socially adjusted) nerds a bad name.

If you want to see naked ladies, and more, this is the internet - porn is free.

Totally agree. Sometimes it's not even nudity they want. There are some people on this forum who claim to only buy statues because of the assets of some of these female characters. It's honestly rather pathetic how many people clamor for pics of things like a statue's ass (see the Supergirl thread). Sometimes it makes me forget we're on a forum of adults instead of junior high school boys.

At the risk of being overly colorful, I'm not sure many collectors sit around polishing their doorknobs while looking at their statues.

I'm sure most male collectors value and admire their expensive grails for what they are...a fantasy!

Didn't like the boring, dull colours on the base. I mean she is queen of the flesh faction and I wanted this to be pointed out. Therefore flesh & blood in her base.. I totally hated the thick, masculine eyebrows and also told my buddy to give her dead eyes, that's the result of his partial repaint. Now I simply love her.
