Colossus X-Men Danger Room Sessions Fine Art Statue


The amazing X-Men Danger Room Sessions Fine Art Statue series continues with its fifth member, the mighty steel-skinned mutant COLOSSUS! Born Piotr “Peter” Rasputin, the mutant who would become an X-Man grew up on a struggling farm in the Soviet Union. His first comic book appearance took place in 1975’s Giant-Size X-Men #1, when Professor Xavier visited the small farm to recruit Peter. At first denying his powers, the mutant revealed his true abilities when a runaway tractor threatened his sister. Transforming into a living steel form with vast strength and durability, Colossus would join the X-Men and serve with distinction, which of course meant lots of practice in the Danger Room. Ever since the early days of Marvel Comics’ mutant adventures, “X” teams have trained together in the ultra high tech facility known as the Danger Room, equipped with state of the art adaptive combat and athletics routines that challenge each participant in unique ways. The training facility has been featured prominently in X-Men comics over the years, as well as in various cartoons and the third X-Men film.

Inspired by Jim Lee’s 1990’s era X-Men, Colossus is a massive and unstoppable force. The massive mutant is posed triumphant on the field of battle, about to bring down his heavy fists to crush the last of his wrecked foes. With his powerful physique transformed into living metal, Colossus has a fantastic sculpt showing off each and every muscle wrapped in smooth, narrow bands. He wears his classic bright red and yellow costume that’s decorated at the waist with a large red and black “X” logo. Everywhere his “skin” is exposed is bright metallic silver, except for his black hair, making Colossus very visually dynamic. But that’s not all. You even have two cool options when it comes to displaying the X-Man as he comes with two interchangeable heads: the first is angry yet focused, while the second is a sheer mask of rage!

Sculpted by Erick Sosa, the enormous Colossus X-Men Danger Room Sessions Fine Art Statue stands over 15 inches tall! He’s perfectly in scale (1/6th) with the other Danger Room Sessions members, and like them stands upon a unique Danger Room holographic environment with translucent parts that glow with a built-in LED light in the base. In Colossus’ case it’s the shattered remains of a torn up Sentinel robot!

NO TIME FOR POVERTY

I wanted to share with you a great opportunity to make a difference!

Your support of No Time For Poverty and Klinik Timoun Nou Yo will provide thousands of children in the region of Port Salut, Haiti, with medical care that would otherwise be unavailable to them.

NO TIME FOR POVERTY

A little more about the work No Time For Poverty does:

Earthquakes, hurricanes, severe flooding, and now a cholera epdemic. Malnutrition, disease, and poverty beyond belief... and yet the Haitian people have an amazing spirit and a sense of hope that few can understand. This is why we are working in Haiti... to assist in providing medical care to the future of Haiti - it's children.

Considered one of the poorest countries in the world, Haiti also has the distinction of having the highest rate of maternal, infant, and juvenile mortality in the western hemisphere. While hunger, poverty, and disease should be the fate of no man, woman, or child, Haiti's close proximity to the United States renders it unthinkable that more assistance has not been afforded there. 8,370 square feet in size, Klinik Timoun Nou Yo, Kreyol for "Our Children's Clinic," will be staffed by Haitian doctors, nurses, and semi-professionals - assisted and supported by United States volunteer professionals and students. Klinik Timoun Nou Yo will operate in collaboration with a Community Board comprised of individuals from Port Salut and surrounding areas. The Board will work with No Time For Poverty in identifying needs, establishing priorities, and partnering in all endeavors. Klinik Timoun Nou Yo will also recruit, train, and supervise a number of community health workers to travel to remote areas throughout the region to offer children, ages 1 day to 5 years, vaccinations, vitamin A, re-hydration treatment, well baby care, and nutritional assistance. It is the goal of Klinik Timoun Nou Yo to provide a welcoming and respectful approach to all children where dignity, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up will be afforded to all patients regardless of status, religion, or ability to pay for service.

The statue is made up of three separate pieces (sold in two parts) which form a single statue.

Part 2 (to be solicited next month) features Supergirl and Steel, and the lower half of Superman and eagle base detail.
