Somebody actually paid $1,399.00 for this in an ebay auction. Yes I'm serious!
I'm not saying that a lot of work didn't go into making this but what is it about these things that never look quite right, there's always something off about them and I'm sorry but there is no way I would part with that much money (if I had it) for this!
Here's what the listing says about it:
This is a RARE life-size 1:1 museum quality, one of a kind, silicone bust of Edward Cullen, played by actor Robert Pattinson in the hit film Twilight, Twilight: New Moon, Eclipse. This is NOT an Edward Cullen doll, this is a full size head. It was custom made by a movie industry FX artist in between jobs. I was going to piece together a full statue. This is an amazing bust that looks entirely real. (Kate: No it doesn't!) The soft silicone is real to the touch. The punched hair is amazing, the eyebrows, lashes, hairline are hand inserted. The eyes are industry grade glass eyes. The entire piece is foam filled with a core up the neck so he can be easily mounted on a stand or put together as an historic museum quality statue (Kate: STOP! mind out of the gutter Kate, mind out of the gutter! :-})
Mmmm... It does look better than the wax model I'll give it that but no thanks I think I'll pass. I prefer the real thing!

They threw away the mold after Rob was made!!!! No way he can ever be duplicated!!
ReplyDelete@Kate
LMAO @ "No, it doesn't)!!!
It is so CREEPY !!!!!!
ReplyDelete@ADM
Thanks so much for letting us be a part of RobStock II I am so green with Envy I can't stand it.
FILTM
Ewwww!
ReplyDeleteI've been up close and personal with Waxy Rob but I wouldn't even go into the same room as this!
Nope, doesn't look real at all. There's only one "authentic" looking Rob and HE'S a one of a kind, living, breathing model.
ReplyDeleteP.S. MOTU updated and please, someone tell me that with that effing cliffhanger Icy plans on having a sequel?!
Is it just me or does a young simon cowell come to mind, i think its the eyebrows!
ReplyDeleteUgh - horrendous!
ReplyDeleteSome people have more money than sense (or taste)...
Ok, that is freaking creepy...
ReplyDeleteYikes!
ReplyDelete@JC--Exactly right.
@Kate--I like the mounting comment.
;-)
OK... someone needs to find out WHO bought this... because no matter how unrealistic... I'm afraid of what a person might consider doing with this... really? Like think about it.. it's just scary... it really really is.. YUCK! Unless you own a museum... or some sort of celebrity tourist trap.. why would you want it? It just gives me the heebee jeebees...
ReplyDeleteI know some of you were asking before if we could change the font or the colour of the comments so that you could keep track of the NB's adventures. Unfortunately we can't but you can post in bold yourself like this
ReplyDeleteIt might help to make the posts stand out.It's easy to do all you do is add b and put <> around it at the beginning of your post and /b inside <> at the end and to make it Italic just do the same with an i inside <>
I hope that makes sense and helps a bit ;-)
I'm an artist and a I Sculpture. I think this is pretty good for an art piece. Kate, I bet you could do any better :)
ReplyDeleteThe eyes are a little off. But it's a hell of a lot better than wax-alike Rob. You can tell it's Edward.
Sorry, but that's just gross!!! Ewww!!
ReplyDeleteMoTU updated, and has ended, and I hope and pray Icy does a sequel, the ending was a cliffie, I think she likes to torture us readers...LOL, So, in reading the reviews, many have pleaded for a sequel....let's just hope!!!!
I figured out what is wrong with this piece and the wax figure at Madame Tussaud's. They don't ever get the eyes right. That includes the eyebrows. He is definitely not symmetrical. And they start out making him so and it just doesn't work. The eyes are never large enough and the space between eyebrows and eyes is never measured properly. They usually get the nose. Sometimes the mouth is thin. I bet if anyone ever got it right there would be a stampede to purchase one.
ReplyDeletejc, is you is or is you ain't going?
ReplyDeleteGET ON THE DAMN PLANE!!! LMAO
Lol @ ADM!
ReplyDeleteYup, creeeeeepy. me no likey.
No one can capture him. :-D
ReplyDelete@ADM ohhh I am so looking forward for this woooww its so close
ReplyDeleteI think this will give me nightmares. Yikes!!
ReplyDeleteHorrible! It's like an Elizabethan execution - step right up folks - here we have a disembodied head on a spoke to brighten up any room in your house!!! You've got to laugh at the lack of imagination. But it's better than the chocolate head that appeared a few months back .... that was horrific.
ReplyDeleteThe people who make these things are not true fans because they don't know his face at all.
@ADM & All the NB's for Robstock II,
ReplyDeleteGood Luck for the ?mis/Adventure;
Enjoy Eclipse & Smell The Pretty;
Stay Safe ........LOL
@ADM and All NBs
ReplyDeleteI'm really looking forward to hearing what you get up to through Ground Control. This is so organised !!!

ReplyDeleteSomebody is totally going to make out with that thing.
ReplyDeleteI just saw the comment "Full Size Head" and I think I must have blacked out...
ReplyDeletewell...um...it does have his smirk and cheeks right. But I cant believe they STILL cant get his eyes right.
ReplyDeleteits the SHAPE of his eyes-*smirks* the inner part alonside the nose are turned downward like a cats. His hair is the wrong color too...
ReplyDeleteAll I have to say is: creepy!
ReplyDeleteGrace I agree it's better than the wax model I said that ;-)
ReplyDeleteOMG, could this be any scarier? Somebody probably took it home & put it on the wall with the stuffed rhinoceros.
ReplyDelete@TotallyRobbed
ReplyDeleteAt least the chocolate head was useful, yum.
Icky.
ReplyDelete@ Adm- do you know if the women in robstock II are going to the film festival, like actually go besides the eclipse premiere??
ReplyDelete@Fifty
ReplyDeleteChocolate Robert Pattinson LIPS would be nice, not so difficult to make either - now if that was a product, I'd get through a lot of them!
That's my PG-rated contribution to all things that could be made out of chocolate concerning RP ....
Looks pretty good to me -- but I'd rather spend $1400 to see him in person (airfare, hotel, tickets, whatever)
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, but looking again, this is STILL freaking creepy!!
ReplyDeleteIt might be freaking creepy but its way better then the Tussauds figure!!! It looks like Twilight-Edward, I think! But still the eyes are creepy...
ReplyDeleteKimmie, no they are not.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2010/05/do-not-buy-this-magazine/
ReplyDeleteDON'T BUY THE Magazines that exploit Rob and Kristen. If we stop buying them - they will quit telling LIES and STEALING our money. The mag bosses are laughing at us all the way to the bank.
Hollywood Gossip.com had an interesting thing to say about what happened back stage at Oprah. Check it out.
Thanks Kate for the idea about the font being bold - I hope there is a way for the Ground Control to do that.
ReplyDeleteOr........could there be a thread created especially for them to post at for each of those 7 days so we won't have to be looking through random threads to find information????? Would that be too difficult for everyone?
I just hate to miss any of the adventures the NB's will encounter and wish them all well in their Robstock journey.
Sorry - I didn't mean to sound bossy and like telling you what to do..........it was just a suggestion.
ReplyDeleteThis actually resembles him fairly well. I agree.. BETTER then the wax statue. I'd say they did a pretty good job.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteI agree better then the wax staute...but still something is off...lips look perfect though...can't replicate the real Robert...only way they could do that is putting a plaster mask on his face to make a mold...that would be the best copy of his face. Of course nobody may be able to get their hands on his face to make a plaster copy.
ReplyDeleteIf you ask me some people are just that crazy obessed with Robert they will by ANYTHING that is Robert even if it doesn't look much like him. Scary thinking they could be making out with that thing. lol
ok..a little creepy..but not too bad..just keep making it..(you know..practice makes perfect)
ReplyDeletemaybe one day they finally make it right..and i.ll defenitely order one for sure..to put on the table in my living room LOL or in the bedroom XD
