CROW PREPAINTS AT MODELMAN'S MANIA



	Prepaints are not particularly my 'bag', however when it comes to The Crow they are a necessary evil so to speak. For a cult film there is a surprisingly big market out there and a number of companies have dipped their toes in the water as can be seen below.

Go Large	1:6 Inteleg Crow. This was one of the few 'official' releases that were commissioned following the release of the original fim. There were at least four versions: a hollow vinyl kit, a resin prepaint with coat, a resin prepaint without coat and a bronzed edition. The prepaints are easier to get hold off then the kits, and recently a few of the bronzed versions have appeared for sale.

Go Large	Dragonfly Crow. It took me a while to get to grips with this Dragonfly release sculpted by Gabriel Marquez, the reason being there were so many variations of it. This is 7" mini statue "Dance of The Dead" in its regular incarnation, limited to 1250 worldwide. All of them, were official releases endorsed by Crow creator James OBarr, and many signed versions have appeared for sale.

Go Large	Bloody varient of The Crow Return exclusive to Tower Records.
Go Large	NECA Crow The observant among you will have noted that this figure also appeared in the kit section, the reason for this is that it was a prepainted solid vinyl kit. Standing 13" tall it comes complete with a church roof base and weather vein
Go Large	Streamline One piece resin prepaint from Streamline pictures, who also produced the Ashe resin kit from The Crow: City of Angels.
Go Large	NECA This was one of two NECA releases that measured in at a hefty 18" in height. This one came without a base but with 5 electronic phrases that were motion activated. Came with a Crow and necklace.
Go Large	NECA Double figure action pack that features The Crow (Draven) and Top Dollar from the final fight scene atop the Church roof in the original movie.

Go Large	NECA This would appear to be a re-working of the old Inteleg piece issued in the 90's.
Go Large	I know nothing about this piece. It would appear to be a conversion of the NECA 12" doll using a head from one of the 1:6 scale NECA resin busts - but I could of course be wrong.
Go Large	120mm scale figure produced in Spain.

Go Large	I haven't discovered anyone who has any definitive information about this figure. All that we can be sure of is that it was produced (sculpted) by Scott Novak, but whether it was conceived as a kit, a prepaint or a 'one-off' is anybodies guess.
Go Large	This is similar to the Scott Novak piece above, in other words a piece about which little is known. I have seen something similar that used the 'Comet Miniatures' Crow figure, which was a scratchbuild and to be honest this one has the same feel about it.
Go Large	NECA Bobble-head...nuff said.
Go Large	Brandon Lee bust sculpted by Marc Faux exclusively for the Bruce and Brandon Lee Association (link can be found below).
Go Large	I don't know anything about this piece other than it is supposed to be a 'talking' action figure.
Go Large	Macfarlane Perhaps the first Crow 'action' figure. Came with a simple stand and 'Movie Maniacs' back drop.

Sometimes you just gotta rely on friends when the hunt is on. And here is that friend.

If you are a fan of Brandon or Bruce Lee, check out the UK based appreciation society.

Came across an Australian site belonging to Dwayne Tompson who specialises in one off figures and sculpts. Although not truely kits I felt they deserved a mention.
