4-LOM Collector's Gallery Statue
4-LOM,
a rusty droid with insect-like features, was originally a protocol
droid, but logic glitches in his systems allowed him to escape and forgo
his original programing and become a fearsome bounty hunter. 4-LOM is
one of the bounty hunters summoned by the Empire to meet with Darth
Vader aboard his mighty flagship, The Executor. 4-LOM was paired with
Zuckuss to find Han Solo and the Millennium Falcon but they were beaten
to their prey by fellow bounty hunter Boba Fett. Here we find 4-LOM
later in his story standing in the sands of Tattooine, searching for his
next bounty… but who is his prey now? |

4-LOM
is the fourth statue in Bounty Hunter 1:8th Collector’s Gallery line
celebrating over 40 years of the Star Wars universe. Each limited
edition, hand-painted piece is cast in high quality polyresin with crisp
details. This statue also comes individually numbered with a matching
certificate of authenticity. |

prints were then used in the creation of prototypes needed to produce
this animated collectible. Each animated statue is hand-cast,

story. The limited edition Man-Thing Collector's Gallery Statue has been
digitally sculpted, and hand-painted by the amazing artisans of Gentle

Wolverine ’92 Collector’s Gallery 1:8th Scale Statue In 1992, long time X-men writer Chris Claremont left the book
and John Byrne and fan-favorite artist Jim Lee took over the creative
duties for the popular comic. Jim Lee’s priority with his new art
duties was getting Logan out of his brown costume and back into a
variation of the blue, black and gold classic “tiger stripe” look. With
the launch of X-Men Vol.2 Wolverine was back in his blue and gold
costume by issue 4 and stayed with this costume for close to a decade
into his X-Men Blue Team phase. The 92 Wolverine “tiger stripe” costume
was also popularized for a generation because of the long-running X-Men
Animated Series.
