Action Figurine Sculptures

Power Rangers by Robert Bradford Celebrates the Show's 20th Anniversary

— January 24, 2013 — Eco
It might be depressing for '80s and '90s kids to think about the popular Saturday morning television show 'Power Rangers' celebrating its 20th anniversary, having debuted in the United States in 1993, but the statue appropriately titled Power Rangers by Robert Bradford, an artist based in Kent, England, will surely cheer some up. Created by the same artist who made dog and army men sculptures out of old toys, it is impressively made out of over 600 individual toys that represent the history of the brand.

Measuring six feet tall, the Power Rangers by Robert Bradford really does look like a Power Ranger, which is easily doubtable considering the medium. Nevertheless, it isn't modeled after a specific one considering the various colors used.
Trend Themes
1. Upcycled Toy Art - The art of creating sculptures or art pieces out of upcycled toys presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for artists and toy manufacturers.
2. Nostalgic Merchandise Lines - The creation of nostalgic merchandise featuring the toys, shows or trends of 80s and 90s presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for e-commerce brands and retailers.
3. Growth of the Kidult Market - The creation of toys and merchandise that cater to adults who are fans of nostalgic brands presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for toy manufacturers and e-commerce brands.
Industry Implications
1. Toy Manufacturing - The creation of upcycled toy art using excess or recycled materials presents an innovative opportunity for toy manufacturers to expand their product lines.
2. E-commerce - The creation of merchandise lines that cater to the nostalgia of adults presents e-commerce brands and online retailers opportunities for growth in the kidult market.
3. Art - The creation of upcycled toy art presents an innovative opportunity for artists to showcase their creativity and contribute to sustainability efforts.
