The art has been removed from the museum. At least one piece that I know of has already been sold to a private collector "the Conqueror". From what I read the collection is being split up and some of it will be touring the world. Never again will this collection ever be viewed in one place. Those who were lucky enough to see it in east stroudsburg were very fortunite.

I had thought that Clay had a go on 4 Conans based on Frazetta art (excluding the Barbarian done years ago). The Conqueror/Berzerker was to be the first followed by 3 others as yet unannounced.
That was what I had heard, but maybe they did get K-boshed. I see that the Frazetta website is "being updated"?
I was really hoping for
1. Destroyer
2. Indominatable
3.Avenger (but because of 3 characters would most likely get the one with young conan on a monkey's back)

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I really hope that the 3 others will be done.

So, this dude allegedly had permission to take the paintings to a "safe" place and used a backhoe to open the door to the museum? Uh, sure buddy. Sure thing.

Sucks, doesn't it. Two years from now, every Heavy Metal Guitarist for a big band will be hanging all the great works by Frazetta on their game-room walls.
My wife told me would could drive up to the Frazetta museum but something always came up. Boy, do I regret it now.

Don't know what to make of it all, except we the fans are the losers because of the sh-t that came down, 2 Deathdealer statues already casualties, DD II and the DD on steed. I feel sorry for Chris G who worked his ass off on those 2 DD sculpts.
Let's hope Clays deal stays intact.

What is weird about it is I thought the Clay deals AND the Chris deals were already in place before Mrs. Frazetta passed away and before this happened. I also thought Reelart had some signed deals as well. Is someone challenging the validity of these deals and/or agreements or something? Is there a court case or a cease and desist or what?
I'm sure we have no right to know so we won't be told.
