As part of Sideshow Collectibles' "12 Days of Sideshow" event, they have been giving a sneak peek at their upcoming product offerings. In terms of horror releases, fans can look forward to collectibles based on Don't Be Afraid of the Dark and Splice.
Don't Be Afraid of the Dark: "Rather than represent a specific scene, Sideshow decided to make a more symbolic statement with this statue. The art team used children's blocks, a common found object in the film, to set up the scale and challenge audience suspension of disbelief.... The final result evokes a sense that these creatures are running around creating all kinds of havoc, and maybe you looked over at just the wrong moment in the dark of night."
Splice: "Though the creature in the film eventually evolves into something very recognizably human, Sideshow was drawn to the idea of the younger version when conceptualizing the statue."
