Iron Studios Needles Kane Sweet Tooth, Twisted Metal, 1/10 Art Scale Statue
Twisted Metal the video game first launched in 1995 and featured a variety of characters and vehicles who fought in various arenas and environments.
One of the most iconic characters in the debut game was Needles Kane, aka Sweet Tooth, a scary clown who would drive a modified Ice Cream Van. Sweet Tooth went on to be the symbol of the franchise in future games.
Iron Studios have announced this new 1/10 Art Scale statue of Sweet Tooth featuring the Clown posed on top of the twisted remains of his Ice Cream van. The statue is a Q2 release for 2022 and can be pre-ordered now from Iron Studio stockists.
Launched already in three different generations of the PlayStation platform, one of the oldest and most classic series from Sony Interactive Studios, the Twisted Metal game series was created in 1995 by David Jaffe, and features several custom vehicles in a series of arenas, fighting a battle of destruction where the survivor, and winner, will have their wish fulfilled. In this story, the concept of being aware of what you wish is very significant.
Filled with dark humor, machine guns, mines, projectiles, and explosions, Twisted Metal features Needles Kane, a crazy psychopath inhabitant of an abandoned ghost town, who, seeing the Twisted Metal tournament as a "Circus", adopts the identity of a scary clown with the name of Sweet Tooth, in order to enter the competition. Driving a modified van, with the characteristics of an ice cream car, Sweet Tooth became the symbol character of the franchise, present in all released games.
A twisted metal door with cracked glass, one of the wheels with a wide tire, a decorative clown head on the roof, and a minigun rotary machine gun, make up the wreckage of the ice cream and destruction van, piled up, forming its base diorama. Dressed in military boots with colorful pants and his unmistakable and threatening clown mask, the stout giant with flaming hair has his big gloved right hand raised as if to grab something while trying in vain to hide a machete in his left fist behind his back. Thus Iron Studios adds another successful franchise of games to its line with the statue of the fearsome "Sweet Tooth Needles Kane - Twisted Metal Art Scale 1/10 - Iron Studios", already available for Pre-Order.

About Me : As a child of the 70's and 80's I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force) and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licences - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
