Limited Edition 1000 Queen Alien Polystone Diorama

The Queen Alien Polystone Diorama manufactured by Sideshow Collectibles is now sold out, but here’s your chance to buy one thanks to eBay where one of the Limited Edition 1000 is up for sale – and it’s brand new still sealed in its box.

This awesome collectible is based on the Queen Alien from James Cameron’s Aliens. It is cast in high-quality, heavyweight polystone, then hand-finished, hand-painted and individually hand-numbered.

Stands 16 inches high above a themed display base.

Originally the Queen Alien Polystone Diorama sold for US$399, but the one available on eBay is going with a Buy it Now price of US $499.  It’s a $100 more expensive than when it originally came out, but then these types of collectibles increase in value simply because they are rare and hard to find, let alone find new and still in the box.

There will be no Bargain - Luke VS Rancor, Exclusive Sideshow Edition

Check out this Sideshow Collectibles/Lucasfilm Luke VS Rancor Diorama.

This detailed sculpture captures a classic Star Wars scene and the truly iconic Rancor creature design.

Each piece is individually painted and finished to exacting standards, each with its own unique quality and detail.

The Sideshow exclusive edition includes a unique feature available nowhere else – a switch-out Rancor hand holding Gamorrean Guard (above).  Image of Rancor holding Luke below:

The diorama is made from polystone and stands 13″ high.

It’s manufactured by Sideshow Collectibles and may be a Limited Edition – they’re advertising that their decision on that is “TBD”.  That being said, this collectible is already a highly sought after Star Wars collectible because it only launched minutes before I started writing this article yet Sideshow’s “low quantity alert” meter is already in the red.

In other words, if you want one, you better hurry (noting that pre-orders are being taken for delivery in the 2nd quarter of 2010).

Price: $229.99.
