It's difficult to outrun Death, but if you're able to, then you'll also have to outswim Death's Siren, Gallevarbe. Gliding through the oceans between Heaven and Hell, Gallevarbe tricks her human prey with illusions before enveloping them in the murky waters below. This assassin of the sea has been unveiled by Sideshow Collectibles as another key character statue in their Court of the Dead line, revealing both the beautiful deception and macabre intention of Death's Siren.
Standing 24 inches tall and crafted with expressive detail, the Gallevarbe Premium Format Figure weighs 15 pounds and is expected to ship in May 2015. It's available to pre-order now for $399 at http://www.sideshowtoy.com/.

Attendees of SDCC can check out Sideshow Collectibles' Court of the Dead line of statues at their booth #1929. We have images of the Gallevarbe statue below, as well as a video exploring the figure's creation (courtesy of Sideshow!):
"Death offered me a second chance, to rise up from the depths and be reborn... All I had to do was say 'yes'.
Conjured by Death as a reaper of souls, Gallevarbe navigates the vast oceans that separate the realms of Heaven and Hell, hunting for lost spirits who dared attempt escape the long grasp of her new master. Called by many names among the mythologies of men - mermaid, siren, harpy - the irresistible assassin lures her victims with powerful illusions, while the sinister truth of their fate is hidden in the murky depths below. Standing 24" tall with a striking composition and intricate attention to detail, this mesmerizing sculpture is an outstanding addition for dark fantasy or horror collectors."
