Sometimes to create, one must
first destroy.
Returning to explore the extensive mythology and unresolved
mysteries in the
Aliens universe, Ridley Scott’s 2012
sci-fi thriller
Prometheus introduced fans to the ancient
race known as the Engineers. Designed for the film by award-winning
creature creator Neville Page, these mysterious beings feature
strong influences of classic Greek and Roman sculpture combined
with HR Giger’s genre-defining aesthetic.
Discovered by archaeologists Elizabeth Shaw and Charles Holloway,
the aptly named ‘Engineers’ are masters of genetic engineering.
Equipped with the most advanced technology, their primary mission
is to seed planets with various species – perhaps even once those
of the human race.
“God-like, classical,
powerful, with skin like that of stone”
- Neville Page on Ridley Scott’s
description of the Engineer
Presented in 1:5 scale, humanity’s fascinating forerunner comes to
life with the Engineer Statue. As depicted on the surface of
LV-223, the Engineer dons the form-fitting organ laced pressure
suit, capable of supplying the life-giving fluids needed during
long periods of hibernation.
Individually hand painted and finished, Sideshow’s artisans have
painstakingly captured every detail of the last known
Engineer.
