Iron Studios is proud to announce the latest from the Art Scale 1:10 DC Comics Series #8 line - Blue Beetle! From DC Comics, the Blue Beetle Art Scale Statue is limited edition and comes atop a detailed and hand-painted base.
Flying in high speed, boosted by energy explosions from a jet engine on his back, the young, armored hero reaches greater maneuverability thanks to a pair of insect-like translucent wings. Wearing an extraterrestrial costume capable of reconfiguring itself to create a wide array of tools and weapons; a pair of pincers in the shape of small claws come out of his shoulders, protecting his head and back; while his right arm takes the form of big claws just like a scarab, his left arm becomes an energy blaster cannon, shooting rays against his enemies. With combat fury in his countenance, Iron Studios present the Blue Beetle - DC Comics series #8 - Art Scale 1:10 Statue, with the armored hero with his blue and black armor described both as a technological artifact and a living entity.
In the past, the archaeologist Dan Garret met the Blue Beetle Scarab, an alien artifact in the tomb of a Pharaoh, and when Dan touched it, it granted him the name and the powers of the Blue Beetle, which he used during years to fight against a series of villains and monsters. When Dan’s career ended, his student Ted Kord took over his legacy as the second Blue Beetle, but without the powers of the Scarab, that ended up being stored in The Rock of Eternity together with Shazam. After a magic battle between Shazam and the Spectre, when The Rock of Eternity was destroyed, the Scarab fell in El Paso, Texas, and was found by High School student Jaime Reyes. While going home from school, he found Khaji Da, which is the name of the Scarab, half-buried on an abandoned terrain. He took it home, and, while he was asleep, the Scarab awoke, and with its parameters met, grafted itself onto Jaime’s spine, selecting him as his host, the new Blue Beetle. Living weapons created by a conqueror race, the Scab has a mind of its own, with full access to its own program, and its nervous system is connected to Jaime’s, allowing them both to share their thoughts and emotions. The Scarab communicates with Jaime as a voice in his mind, that sound like Jaime’s mother, which no one else can hear. The Scarab can create a distinct armor in response to Jaime’s thoughts, or when it considers the use of the armor to be necessary. The moment the Scarab dissipates the armor, it retracts back into Jaime’s body.
