Star Ace presents: Medusa from the Ray & Diana Harryhausen Collection Soft Motion Series | 30cm Poseable Figure
Harness the spine-chilling legacy of Clash of the Titans with this meticulously crafted Medusa figure, a tribute to Ray Harryhausen’s groundbreaking stop-motion artistry. Officially licensed by the Ray & Diana Harryhausen Foundation, the 30cm collectible blends dynamic posability with screen-accurate detail, designed to bring the Gorgon’s terrifying allure to your shelf.
Crafted entirely from durable vinyl, Medusa’s form prioritizes both longevity and lifelike texture. Her arms and select serpents within her hair feature subtle bendability, allowing you to adjust her pose for dramatic, battle-ready displays—no visible joints or seams disrupt her monstrous silhouette. The figure captures her iconic aggression: her left hand grips a bow with an arrow permanently notched and ready to fire, locked in mid-attack for eternal cinematic tension. Relive her climactic defeat by detaching her head, recreated with chilling precision to mirror the film’s legendary decapitation scene.
Anchored by her massive coiled tail, sculpted with scaly realism, Medusa stands firm in any pose, echoing the eerie grace of her on-screen counterpart. Every detail, from the hypnotic glare of her unblinking eyes to the sinuous curves of her serpentine locks, is painstakingly hand-painted to honor Harryhausen’s original vision.
A must-have for collectors of classic fantasy cinema, this figure bridges nostalgia and innovation. Whether frozen in mid-strike or displayed post-decapitation, Medusa commands attention as a haunting testament to stop-motion history.
Limited quantities available—pre-order now to claim the Gorgon before her gaze turns you to stone.
