I can buy it if I want but I bought too much already so I'll let this one pass. I would love to have one myself one day though.

xenoviper · 06-24-2008, 10:05 AM

Wow nice statue!

Jinroh · 06-24-2008, 01:16 PM

Whoa that is...(to quote Duke) "bitchin'" man I might just have to look for one.

Damien_Azreal · 06-24-2008, 01:46 PM

I would love to have one... but I can't justify spending that much on it alone.

I saw one on Ebay a while back, went for 300 in the UK. Conversion rate.... would put it over 600 bucks US. As much as I want one, I'm not spending that.

Agreed. $600 is just too much. Well unless it was the #1 OF 5,000.

zeroagent · 06-25-2008, 10:27 PM

It never looks like the picture...

. Maybe it's just the flash.

What was the most expensive Blood purchase you have ever made?

Damien_Azreal · 06-26-2008, 01:23 PM

130 bucks for a full boxed copy of One Unit Whole Blood. Still sealed.

From the right angle and with nice lighting you can get very nice photos of it

But i dislike some of the poor details, like the cheaply done 'cracks' in the 'Duke Nukem' writing, and the folding in his shirt, which is just black wave'y horisontal lines...

Skin looks bright only in overly lit rooms or when using camera flash... Else, it looks very nice...
Here's how skin can look like with nice lights...

Malgon · 07-01-2008, 03:43 AM

Still got to get me one of these.

Jinroh · 07-01-2008, 06:37 AM

Man, I really want one, but now I can't

had to buy a new car yesterday.

Joe Siegler · 07-03-2008, 09:33 PM

Each one of these is indivuidually numbered. If you have one, what's your number?

If it is me you are asking, it is number 559, i just checked...

[edit:]
Additionally, i felt like taking a photo with my cell phone of that bottom part, it's probably the only thing of it i haven't photographed yet, before now...

Joe Siegler · 07-04-2008, 01:04 PM

Mine is #79, I think.

ZynteX · 07-04-2008, 06:07 PM

I whant one, too.

Someone whant to sell one or know where to get one ?

Kennerado · 07-04-2008, 06:21 PM

Maybe 3DR could give away the ones they still have in storage?

.....please?

Micki! · 07-05-2008, 02:29 AM

Did you guys (at 3DR) get to own the first one too..? The #1..?
(i realize the one you mention is your private owned one, but i guess the company itself also have a few lying around as well)

Seriously doubt it. No matter how much you said please, it wouldn't make a difference.

Make a cardboard sign with "Will work on DNF for statue!" on it and sit in front
of 3D Realms building.

Yes we have some in storage. No, they won't be given away. Or sold.

Rider · 07-09-2008, 04:40 PM

Storage being, certain individuals have one or more statues? Or storage being that you have a few boxes standing in a separate room somewhere?

Joe Siegler · 07-09-2008, 04:46 PM

What does that matter?

I guess, just pure curiosity, and if they're 'used' for display purposes or just packed away inside their boxes...

George Broussard · 07-09-2008, 06:06 PM

Those statues are awesome and pretty worth the money. They were a limited edition statue created in 97/98 or so. Very few exist.

I think we only have about 8 in storage and they are reserved for extremely special circumstances.

They're packed away for archival purposes. It's not like we have 100 of them, just a couple for the archives.

Damien_Azreal · 07-09-2008, 07:57 PM

It's one of those extremely rare items out there. Like the BLOOD mouse pad filled with "blood".

I only know of two people that have one, I've been looking for one of those mouse pads for years upon years.
And when I find one... it, like these Duke statues, go for amazing amounts on Ebay.

Malgon · 07-10-2008, 12:11 AM

^Blood mouse pad? Sounds cool.

And yeah as George said, the statues are awesome.

Acid · 07-10-2008, 02:11 PM

Some of us long time fans im sure wouldnt mind one of those statues george

Stevey Boy · 07-10-2008, 04:33 PM

Ah screw it, I just made a bid and send the seller an e-mail. Hopefully he accepts it.

Micki! · 07-11-2008, 04:31 AM

Cool Iggy, hope you get it

ryche · 07-11-2008, 11:10 AM

I remember bidding on one on EBay a long time ago. Me and Levelord actually were bidding on the same one and I told him in an email that I wouldn't keep bidding cause he said he didn't have one.

Hope one day I'll have my own...

Kennerado · 07-11-2008, 06:12 PM

I thought it was Lee Jackson that you were bidding with?

Was supposed to get one, but didn't turn out well. Mouse pad was horribly damaged in shipping through UPS. Was ripped, torn... whatever.

The box it was in was stained red with the liquid inside it, box was crushed, folded... just damn near destroyed. And the pad itself was damaged so badly you could hardly tell what it originally was.

Guy refunded me, and I sent the remains back to him. He gave me a free copy of some game as well. But I've never managed to find another one.

Wellenreiter · 07-12-2008, 04:51 AM

Wow, bad luck... they are so rare, it's even hard to find them with google - how many where there?
