Electric Tiki to make Disney collectibles!

[Coheteboy]

A company created by an ex- Disney Animator, ELECTRIC TIKI DESIGN, maker of statues and other collectibles based on film and television have joined forces with Disney. While they haven't shown us what they're going to do, their announcement graphic looks promising!

I'll use this thread to debut anything that I discover in the coming months. Sounds exciting!

Surprised you didn't post this. I am SO excited about this line!

They have some interesting pieces. Majority appear to be animated characters, they have even done a Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie piece. I looked at their soon to be release Woody Woodpecker/Chilly Willy pieces, also, and they all look very nice. They cost in the $70 to $75 range, and the Woody pieces are made of something called "polystone". I didn't see the size of these pieces listed anywhere. Does anyone see that info?

At least these don't appear to be vinyl doggie toys, so that's good. But I still think the price is out there. (yeah I know a lot of the maquettes for action hero characters can be expensive. But $70 is still too pricey for something less than 12 inches.)

Shoot, I didn't even see that! But that's rad! No better way to kick off the line than with the terror that flaps in the night!


And yah, Aladdin, these ARE a bit pricey. I have a Hellboy statue that they made... it's heavy (polystone) and limited to 1,000 and cost $180 and is completely sold out.


The Darking Duck teeny weeny maquette will probably be even RARER. Just using Andy Panda as a comparison, he cost $59.99 and is limited to only 325 pieces. Standing 6 inches high and weighing 2 pounds.

Now if you think about it... those Walt Disney Classic Collection sculptures probably have a higher edition size and sell for sometimes a lot more. I don't think they'll have too much trouble selling Darkwing Duck.

Thanks, Coheteboy.

I was going to mention that the Disney pieces will probably have a premium price. I wouldn't be surprise if they were $10 to $20 more.

It would be nice to see something quality, somewhere between the size of Ocheifski (spelling?) and the Walt Disney Classics Collection pieces.

Well, they had a sample to show in Comic-Con so here it is!







And you can pre-order it now for $100!

Definitely pricier than I expected.

Well Tracey worked on the Roger Rabbit shorts and so he has a history with them. Plus he is a Disney Afternoon fan. I can't wait to see the Walt Disney statue.
