Toy OTD: Cartoon Network Samuai Jack Maquette
Cartoon Network wisely started its own line of merchandise some time ago, and some of it is really great - especially their limited edition maquettes! The Samurai Jack line is terrific - the sculpts interpret the stylized designs beautifully. The paint work is simple, but precise where it needs to be. No silly branding anywhere, which helps keep it looking classy.The only minus is that they're more expensive than a comparable Gentle Giant figurine - $150 or so, as compared to maybe $80 or $100. I'm assuming that's due in part to smaller production runs.
Jack here is sold out, and I'm not finding him for sale elsewhere online. The pieces I am seeing on eBay look about the same price as they were at the CN website, so that's encouraging. Keep your eyes open there, and at your local toys shows or comic conventions. Good luck!

I am one of those looking for this nice looking piece. I wish I can get it somehow. This piece pops up in ebay once in a while but I currently don't have access to ebay so there goes that idea.
It's not hard to set up an eBay account. Do you not have a credit card?
Hi! this is a great maquette! but extremely hard to find, there is one right now on ebay, this just happens once a year or so, and look the pictures from all 360ยบ :) cool! search for it as Samurai Jack maquette, good luck!
