Every video game has its hero/heroine, and this 'GLaDOS' sculpture directly resembles the crazy, out of control 'Portal 2' villain. The sculpture is built with "multiple points of articulation and a light-up eye," giving it a life-like appearance. Created by Chris Hooton a.k.a. Sabertooth, the 'GLaDOS' sculpture is built to scale of the 'Chell' figurine by '[NECA.](http://necaonline.com/)'

With the 'Chell' figurine being seven inches in height, you can imagine how big the 'GLaDOS' would be if it were created to life-size proportions. This 'GLaDOS' sculpture is an excellent addition to any [video game enthusiast's collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-de-guzman-1). With it being a [custom-made sculpture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/split-bust), the 'GLaDOS' would be a highly sought after item for [collectors around the world](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-toys-2).
