Sideshow Collectibles and Marvel have released images of their Ghost Rider Maquette, based on designs from the upcoming major motion picture. Under the supervision of Creative Director Tom Gilliland, the Sideshow creative team studied the conceptual artwork created from the film, and together with sculptor Ray Villafane, translated the conceptual designs into a fully realized sculptural artwork. The prototype was finished with Tom's paintwork, detailing and enhancing the sculpted leather, bone, and fire.

The Ghost Rider Maquette is in approximately 1:5 scale and stands roughly 17 inches tall. Each piece is hand cast and hand painted to exacting standards. Real metal details and chain have been utilized to complete the piece, and the flames are cast in a translucent material. Each piece will be packed in a durable molded foam interior for safe shipment, and packaged inside a beautiful full color box.

The figure will ship in the fourth quarter of 2006. It will carry a price tag of $199.99.
