'Numskull Designs' has created an official statue of the 'Witch Queen' from Destiny 2 in collaboration with 'Bungie,' the developers of the video game. The Witch Queen is named 'Savathûn,' and she has several visual features that translate astonishingly well into a real-life statue. For example, Savathûn has large moth-like wings, a stylish exoskeleton, massive claws, and various other threatening features that maintain their fearsome allure in Numskull Designs' 11.5-inch-tall replica.
This replica is the fifth statue the brand has created based on a character from Destiny 2, and it is definitely the most ambitious. The Savathûn replica statue is 26-inches wide with support stands for each of its wings. As a whole, the replica weighs 3.83lbs, making it a very heavy, high-quality art piece. The price or release date of the statue have not yet been confirmed.
