I always wondered where most of the statues are now.

According to what I could find, 6 of them exist

The original, "small" statue is in Mandala Bay, but that's not part of the 6.
90


We know a statue in Best, Netherlands, was removed because Mcdonalds ordered the owners of the restaurant to remove it, the statue was apparently donated to the Netherlands MJ Fan club and is at an undisclosed location

A statue in Milano Idroscalo, Italy, it's not the original monochrome design as it was repainted

A statue in Judenau-Baumgarten, Austria, unsure if it has been sold since

There is another statue which has been in the Swiss area which has been used up until 2011, since then there are absolutely no news of it and it's whereabouts are completely unknown

A statue in Santoama Miniland, Johannesburg, South Africa, It's unclear if the statue is still there as of 2022 but it was still there in 2017

It's possible the Swiss statue and Austrian statue are the same one, in which case we're missing another statue out of the 6.

Italian statue it's situated at Milano Idroscalo, it got several rework paint due it was painted as Iron Man years ago, now it looks quite decent to me.

German/Austria statue is currently storaged in a warehouse in Austria and the owner is selling that around 30/40k euro

Oh wow, till I saw that picture I did not realize there were so many and they were so big!! I thought it was just the one that was reported floating on a river during the tour.

Updated the list

I'm unsure if the Austrian statue is the same as the Swiss one

That you didn't know there were that many, granted

But why did you think they weren't so big? the one floating on the river is one of the normal ten meter ones

I meant I did not know there were so many 10 meter statues built. I thought it was just that one. It is so crazy!
Were they commissioned in respective countries? How were they even transported!

I’m pretty sure Kim Yung Un bought them all to place in random people’s back garden. Obviously after remolding them to his liking

why do they look so different from one another if they're all done by the same artist

I saw recently that they put back the one at Mandalay Bay in Vegas!
Yes that's the very first thing I wrote in OP

Some were repainted (as you can see from the 🤮 wolverine statue)

And maybe they are not all from the exact same mould

Update : apparently I was wrong, there are indeed only 6 statues

It is also unclear if the Swiss statue is the Austrian one.

I'm always reminded of the ghostbusters 2 finale with the Statue of Liberty when I open this thread.

I make these History statues, 65cm tall and about 4.5kg. If anyone wants one feel free to PM or contact me for details.
