Knucklebonz Rock Iconz

Not a particularly long post from me today. With a rare bit of downtime this weekend I thought I would share with you something that means an awful lot to me: my Knucklebonz Rock Iconz collection!

Knucklebonz have been producing high quality statues of rock and metal legends for fans since 2003 and have recreated the likes of Ronnie James Dio right through to Rush! Crucially all of their statues are limited edition, (some of the more recent editions have only 1000 going into production!) so once they sell out their value increases exponentially. Some of the statues in my collection were long sold out before I discovered Rock Iconz but I have been lucky to get some from eBay for a very reasonable price. That being said just a quick search on eBay will show you just how rare some of these collectables have become!

So in between braving the snow outside and watching 'Marvel's Jessica Jones', I had a quick mess around with my camera to try and take some pictures of my Rock Iconz; just to show you all the detail that goes into each hand painted statue.

Brian May

Each statue is individually hand-painted and numbered. 

Each statue has a unique base that reflects the guitarist/musician.

Brian is currently sold out but may pop up on eBay occasionally,

Freddie Mercury

Rather than the familiar yellow jacket Freddie circa 1986, Knucklebonz chose to go with
Freddie's 70's look which complements Brian May's attire on his statue.

AC/DC were one of the first bands to sign off on
having their likeness used by Knucklebonz.

I'm lucky enough to own a Malcolm Young statue as it sold out
a long time ago,

His brother Angus is also available but good luck finding that one!
Those babies are like gold dust!

Here is just one of two Jimmy Page's that Knucklebonz
have released.

This particular one catches a moment in time from 1977
as Jimmy held his bow over his head during a performance
of 'Dazed and Confused'

I managed to get this for a tiny £20!! Someone obviously didn't know
what they had!

One of my very favourite guitarists ever I am thrilled to
have Slash in my collection!

One of the first releases from Knucklebonz, the detail
is exquisite and it has long since sold out.

The last Slash I saw on eBay sold for over £500!
Hats off to you if you have one of these!

Finally this amazing statue of Rob Halford from
Judas Priest is a true highlight of the collection.

This is just the tip of the iceberg as to what Knucklebonz have produced. If you like Slayer, The Beatles, Ozzy and many more you'll be well represented. As for me? There's a fantastic Lemmy that I hope to get my hands on before it sells out. Plus... PLUS... check these out!

FYI people it's my 30th birthday next June and these ship in Spring 2016... anyone wanna buy me a Gene Simmons? I may love you forever...
