Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country Action Figure 1/6 Lieutenant Valeris 28 cm
Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country Action Figure 1/6 Lieutenant Valeris 28 cm
Step into the heart of Starfleet intrigue with our exquisite one sixth scale collectible figure of Lieutenant Valeris, the mysterious Vulcan officer who plays a pivotal role in the events of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. With her complex motivations and striking presence, Valeris is an iconic character in Star Trek lore, representing a different side of the conflict-a thrilling enigma wrapped in secrets and conflicting loyalties.Portrayed by the talented Kim Cattrall, Lieutenant Valeris is a brilliant, logically-minded officer whose allegiance is tested in a story steeped in subterfuge and betrayal. Unlike General Chang, whose intent was to sabotage peace through overt aggression, Valeris embodies a more conflicted role, driven by a misguided sense of loyalty to her people and a passion for preserving their strength, even at the cost of betrayal. Her complex narrative creates a fascinating contrast to Chang's villainy, illuminating the multifaceted nature of loyalty and confl…

Life-Size Bust Horus by Miyo Nakamura 80 cm
Life-Size Bust Horus by Miyo Nakamura 80 cm
Horus is one of the great deities of ancient Egypt, typically figuring as a falcon or a falcon-headed man. Egyptians viewed Horus as the protector of the Pharaoh and the ruler of the gods. The Eye of Horus is an ancient Egyptian symbol of protection and of royal power from the deities.Now, the artists at ECC are turning toward ancient mythology and reimagining these characters. Combining a fascination with the natural world, the intricacies of geometric design, heroic tales of gods and monsters, and a passion for the human form and the Classical Style, the Horus bust is one of the most carefully yet subtly conceived sculptures ECC has created to date.The Horus is the third character designed and created by Miyo Nakamura for ECC's Myth line, succeeding the ECC Anubis. Here is what Miyo had to say about the process:''Having the opportunity to sculpt Horus was a special moment of synchronicity. As falcons flew above me, I knew I wanted to connect with him next.

José Herrera (Hardback)
José Herrera (Hardback)
The Spanish painter José Herrera,(Madrid 1943), whose works can be found all over the world, is celebrating his fiftieth anniversary of being an artist with this publication containing images that are representative of his entire oeuvre. The influence of cubism is still perceptible in his earlier work, although it has been modelled and reduced to recognisable proportions. Inspired by his illustrious predecessors Picasso and Dali, he soon developed a highly individual style - surrealistic and colourful with undeniably Spanish traits. His later work is more figurative, but he is not a precision painter who aspires to create a lifelike representation of the world. His figures - predominantly women, either naked or clothed in dazzling garments - exude the same sense of pride and dynamism expressed in the dances of men and women in the flamenco cellars of Seville. José occasionally uses just one colour or shade in his work in which the accent is placed fully on the sober portrayal of the
