Art Asylum has announced that Medusa is joining the Femme Fatale line as a companion piece to Anne Bonny statue arriving in September.
Medusa and Anne Bonny will appear in the Femme Fatales 9-inch PVC statue line from Diamond Select Toys in September. The pair will also show up in Minimate form a month later, as part of DST’s second wave of Femme Fatales Minimates in October.
“I like the broader, more original take on Medusa, as opposed to the usual depiction with the head of snakes,” says Medusa sculptor Jean St. Jean of the new look. “In my mind, I saw her as a heroic Medusa vanquishing the Titans, and the cyclopean eye theme on her armor representing her ability to turn foes to stone with her gaze. In this version, her beauty is the lure, which entraps her enemies much like the mythical sirens.”
No word on price, but keep checking and we’ll let you know when the release date draws near.
