So I am simply the end result of your experiment? What becomes of me now that
your experiment is over? These humans....they care nothing for me.....this cannot be my destiny......
We dreamed of creating the worlds strongest Pokemon....and we succeeded.
Hey everybody BAM Collectibles here back for another statue unboxing review for you!
As a kid Mewtwo was one of the most
highly sought after powerful Pokemon in the game I will never forget seeing him
in the wild being able to catch him with my one and only master ball.
Many years later he continues to be that same icon of power. Taking a look at the base this
statue is themed after when Mewtwo first broke out of his canister and began to
attack the humans that created him. In the back of the statue you will see some
holes that's later gonna be used to attach some accessories that were sculpted separately.
The statue does come with some built-in LED lights which is
awesome here's the controls in the back and then the port for the power is there as well.
A few of these blue effect pieces were also sculpted separately.
This base is really packing in the details department. The beautiful mixture
of both the metallic, the cannister, the effect pieces, some of the broken rock.
It's just incredible how it all goes together. I love that nice Team Rocket
symbol in the back, good throw back. This piece here is where Mewtwo will later be
mounted too via that magnet.
The bottom round glass looking piece is later where the LEDs will be illuminating from.
Here's a close-up of the steel rods that I mentioned were sculpted separately.
On here you will see some blue tack and I use that, it actually comes with it, and I
use it to further reinforce them staying in. They don't really slip out easily but
just in case to make sure that they don't I'll put some in there when I insert them in the holes.
With those installed what also comes with this is one of the kind of
restraint claws that was used once Mewtwo kind of began to get really
frustrated and start to use his power. These tried to contain him in place and
they were very unsuccessful doing so haha!
Sculpted separately was also a broken piece of what I've been calling the
canister I guess it technically could be called a large beaker by a scientist or whatever...
When you're looking at Mewtwo from the front they sculpted his left hand separately.
On the joint that connects to Mewtwo I did have some of that blu-tack as well.
That helps things really stand a place if there's any loose parts it
really fills in the gaps and gives a nice strong hold to it.
The effect piece is next-level! I love all the different tones and textures with the paint that
they use and then you have the large sphere as the focal point, the flames in
the back, and the more electricity looking piece up front.
My man right there! Sculpted to perfection the artists at DS Studio are unrivaled when it comes to
creating both dynamic poses and accurate feels to these Pokemon just like they
jumped out of a TV show or video game. Was a really cool touch how they added
all the different shards and broken glass sculpted onto Mewtwo's body.
This small piece of blue-tac will later be used to mount Mew.
Another one of my favorite things about the studio is just how clean and slick their paint job is.
There's ever any bleed or blotches and I always love how great the eyes look on the Pokemon.
There's an L-shaped cavity in the shoulder which allows for the arm
to be inserted in the proper position. I love that the studio did go for a
dynamic pose for how powerful of a Pokemon he is. Some of their other ones in
the past they had them in more static positions while this bad boy surely
breaks the mold or should I say the canister! Haha!
Incoming cute but dangerous Mew! I was really happy to see that Mew was
included as well. Originally I thought this was just a Mewtwo statue at first
so just an added bonus to have it included with. Look at a cute little mouth!
The tail piece is very thin and fragile so be careful with that if you
do purchase. There is a little bit of a notch on the side of Mew, that's where
it connects to that part of Mewtwo's tail that had some blu-tack in it before.
Gotta whip out my PSA Mewtwo card from the original base set now his grade is
only seven and it's an non-first edition so he's not that expensive compared to
some of the other ones that are out there. He was about $25-30 USD.
if I recall but I love having these in my collection.
As seen in some of my other Pokemon videos I do have these stands the cards sit in having them on display.
Turning off the lights so you can see how the LEDs look in the dark.
The statue light doesn't pulsate as you see here this is
just me adjusting my camera so that you can actually see. This is about how
bright it is in the dark. The light is perfectly casted on Mewtwo and it kind
of further adds to how dynamic of a feel that statue is. Kudos to DS Studio as
well for using electric to illuminate the LEDs in this statue instead of
something like batteries those can be really painful to work with. I wanted to
give you a personal look at how I'll be displaying this statue in my IKEA Detolf display case.
I decided to custom print a master ball background you can see in
the card up here how I go about that process and another one of my videos.
Even though Mew was in the statue I will be picking up this one made by MFC so
that it'll have its own base and I can appreciate it all on its own.
Not to mention it'll fill this case that more so it'll feel nice and balanced.
I picked this bad boy up at FavorGK, be sure to check out their website in the
description if you want to pick one up for yourself. A special thanks to you for
