SDCC Exclusive (Ltd. Ed. of 150)
Variant Edition to Feature Special Signed & Numbered Certificate
The CS Moore Studio is pleased to announce the debut of the Nightmare Puppeteer Torso Statue, based on the beautiful mind-reader in Seth Green and Hugh Sterbakov’s best-selling series Freshmen from Top Cow Productions. The piece will be strictly limited to 150 pieces, and will be offered for the first time during Comic-Con International San Diego at a special signing with Seth Green, Hugh Sterbakov and Sculptor Clayburn Moore.
The signing will take place at the Top Cow Productions’ booth (#2329) from 4:30-6:30 on Saturday, July 26. During the signing, collectors will be able to reserve their specific edition number of the statue, and will receive a numbered certificate signed by Green, Sterbakov and Moore, as well as a special full-color litho created for the piece. This is a great opportunity for collectors to preorder the piece and guarantee the number they will receive. After the signing session, the piece will be available for order at the CS Moore Studio booth (#2800), subject to availability.

“This is a beautiful piece! We’re thrilled to have a newly sculpted variant that really captures the personality of the dark Annalee,” said Green.
“It’s been a dream come true to see our character realized by unparalleled sculptor Clayburn Moore,” said Sterbakov. “He took one of the most beautiful images of the Puppeteer ever put to the page, from Rodolfo Migliari's cover for Freshmen #2, and brought it to life in a beautiful and magnificent statue. Frankly, it’s astonishing.”
“Working with Seth and Hugh throughout this project has been terrific,” said Moore. “It was fun working on this dark twist to the beautiful Puppeteer character.”
Freshmen tells the story of a group of college freshmen who are imbued with miraculous superpowers when a mysterious device explodes near them. The series delivers action, romance, and laughs as the group comes to grips with their new powers. The Puppeteer (aka Annalee Rogers) is a beautiful, troubled young woman with the ability to read people’s minds, and control them for minutes at a time.
“I think it’s a great little bonus for our loyal fans to be able to snag this super-limited variation of the Puppeteer statue,” Sterbakov continued. “It's fantastic that we're doing this, because Clay will go the extra distance to make sure this is a really special variation. We're lucky to be working with such a talent, and I for one can't wait to get my chubby little paws on this special edition!”
The Nightmare Puppeteer Torso Statue stands 12-1/2” tall and is offered for $125.00. The piece is scheduled to ship in January 2009. A beautiful, highly detailed regular edition of the statue, which features Puppeteer in her traditional red costume, is also available for order and will be on display at the CS Moore Studio booth.
