Quantum Mechanix - Firefly statue - Malcolm

2013 San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) - Quantum Mechanix

Firefly - Malcolm Reynolds statue by Quantum Mechanix

I hope this is finally a proper Firefly statue with actual actor likeness in non-animated style.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

If they plan to do rest of the crew, I am guessing we will see an alternate Mal statue down the line.

More pics and details of the statue.

"QMx is very proud to present Malcolm Reynolds of the sci-fi TV series Firefly as you’ve never seen him: dynamic, determined and drop-dead gorgeous in a magnificently rendered 1:6 scale statue prototype.

The man who would become the captain of the Firefly-class transport Serenity is depicted younger as Sergeant Malcolm Reynolds of the Independents Army at the height of the battle of Serenity Valley during the Unification War against the Alliance. He radiates vitality and spirit as he charges up a promontory, brandishing the Independents flag.

The figure has been sculpted in the kind of painstaking detail that collectors have come to expect from QMx — from Mal’s face to his famous sidearm to the buckles on his brown coat. The most challenging part of doing this statue was capturing the face of Nathan Fillion, who portrayed the character.

Malcolm Reynolds Proto-9We turned to Trevor Grove, one of the top portrait sculptors in the business today, who has the uncanny ability to capture a likeness. Trevor has created scores of likenesses for the world’s top collectibles companies, including sculpts of Arnold Schwarzenegger as Dutch from Predator, Alec Guinness as Obi-Wan Kenobi from Star Wars, and Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow from The Avengers.

The 1:6 Scale Malcolm Reynolds Statue is made of hand-cast polystone and will be hand painted. The flagstaff is metal with a resin flag, though we may end up making a fabric version (stay tuned for more on that). Mal stands approximately 12 inches tall; with the base and flag, the sculpture is 16.5 inches tall. The base measures 11 inches x 9 inches. The entire piece weighs about 10 pounds."

Why is he carrying a flag? Don't remember him in the series running around with a flag in his hand... Ditch the flag and you got a pretty cool looking statue..

If he'd had a sword in his hand instead of a gun I'd have mistaken him for Connor McLeod.

It's not really from the series, it's supposed to be during the war (not part of one of the flash backs). But yes why is he holding a flag? It's not really like Mal to do something like that :P And I don't remember a mention of mal having his pistol during the war :<

During the war he had a uniform, old beaten jacket with a red vest underneath it, the statue shows him with the clothes he had from the series...
