TriForce Sales, LLC announced today that it has finalized work on its Gears of War 2 Marcus Fenix Epic Scale Bust and the exclusive Gold Lancer Edition Marcus Fenix Epic Scale Bust available only at the San Diego Comic-Con and projecttriforce.com.
The piece was sculpted and art directed by Erick Sosa. Paint work handled by Jordu Schell. The Epic Scale bust is a detailed likeness of the winner of the Embry Star and hero the COG army. Marcus is presented from the stomach up, in his right hand he holds his Lancer and clinched in his left fist are the COG tags of fallen comrades. From the bottom of the base to the top of the Lancer the piece is an impressive 32 inches in height. The Marcus Fenix Epic Scale Bust will feature LED effects through out the entirety of the piece including the signature COG Lancer Assault Rifle being held. The Marcus Fenix Epic Scale Bust will retail for $350.00 USD and will be limited to a run of 500 units. The Marcus Fenix Epic Scale Gold Lancer Edition Bust will retail for $400.00 USD and be limited to 100 pieces available exclusively at the San Diego Comic-Con and projecttriforce.com.
"When deciding which character to create for our new Epic Scale Bust line, we knew it had to be Marcus Fenix. The facial expression, armor, and uniform were all sculpted with the utmost attention to detail. We knew we wanted our Epic Scale line to tell a story with each piece. The base itself depicts destroyed beauty and the cherub head from the iconic 'Mad World' trailer are all part of the storytelling aspect created by our design team," said Drew Seldin of TriForce. "We are looking forward to seeing what fans think! The TriForce team is proud to present this to all the millions of Gears fans out there. We hope Gearheads will proudly display Marcus as they take on the Locust Horde."
"TriForce shares our vision for the Gears franchise, and they realize what we're going for with each piece they create," said Epic Games Art Director Chris Perna. "The attention to detail is second to none and their love for this project shows. The ‘Gears of War 2’ Marcus Fenix Epic Scale Bust is simply amazing and working with TriForce has been a pleasure, once again."
The Marcus Fenix Epic Scale Bust and Marcus Fenix Gold Lancer Edition Bust will be on display and for sale online and at TriForce's San Diego Comic-Con booth #2601 starting Wednesday night, July 21st.
