Kotobukiya’s Upcoming ‘Texas Chain Saw Massacre’ Statue Captures Leatherface in Horrifying Detail

Published

on

Kotobukiya, the Japanese company behind that line of horror statues that imagine male horror icons as beautiful women, is back with a brand new Leatherface statue this year, though this one is much more accurately based on Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.

The 1/6 scale PVC statue, measuring 320mm tall, captures Gunnar Hansen’s original take on Leatherface in horrifying detail, looking like he ran right out of the movie and into your home.

The statue is part of Kotobukiya’s ARTFX lineup, billed as the “definitive version of Leatherface” due to its screen-accurate details from thoroughly researched footage and materials.

The company details, “The head and left elbow are movable, and the way the chainsaw is held in the hands can be changed to express the duality of his personality.

“You can recreate Leatherface in his eerie, expressionless mask, or even display him as an obedient man who sometimes even looks frightened. By turning the chainsaw in his left hand upside down, you can even recreate the pose in the infamous movie poster.

“The mask, which has eyelashes implanted as shown in the movie, is made of soft resin and is ultra-thin and transparent to match the scale of the actual prop. The front and back of the mask are connected using real hand-tied string just like in the film.

“The texture of the fresh blood stains on the apron, the dust that reminds fans of the dry Texas air, and the shirts with sebum stains are all perfectly brought to life.

“This base comes with a 150mm diameter steel base designed to look like the on-screen text and still photo from the beginning of the movie. The statue can be placed freely on the base with magnets that are inside of the feet.”

Leatherface is set for release this summer. Learn/see more over on Kotobukiya’s website.
