A classic swashbuckler, the masked avenger Zorro has stood the test of time as one of the adventure genre's heroes. Soon to grace the screen in a major motion picture, this version of the masked swordsman is bursting forth in this sculptural piece created by the award-winning artisans at New Zealand's Weta Collectibles.
The piece captures a difficult but perfect pose, with Don Diego rearing on his steed as he enters the fray. The difficulty of the sculpture is deceptive-the engineering is challenging, but these guys make it look easy and natural.
This is perhaps the most nuanced and sophisticated sculptural treatment of Zorro ever created. An heirloom for the serious collector, measuring approximately 13" high, this hand-painted, individually numbered statue is an instant classic.
No detail has been overlooked-fringes, embroidery, the tack and saddle all combine for a finished piece that sets a higher standard for the serious collector.
