Action figures have long been a perfect compliment to comic books, since every kid (or kid at heart) has that natural desire to act out adventures with their favorite heroes off the drawn page. <\/span>Every so often, a unique style of figure comes along that breaks the mold, so to speak. Each Saturday, Donny B<\/a> will be showcasing various offerings from Art Asylum’s take on the ‘block figure’, with a weekly spotlight on Minimates<\/strong><\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last week we took our first look at some of the Minimates that Art Asylum has released from their Ghostbusters<\/em><\/strong> line. As I said then, this line is extremely comprehensive, having spawned\u00a0six boxed sets and four full waves. That’s quite a bit, considering every release\u00a0has been based on\u00a0two movies and one video game.
\nSo for the next few weeks, we will be showcasing various Minimate incarnations of iconic Ghostbusters characters. This week’s feature is none other than the infamous Statue of Liberty, and her climactic walk through New York City:<\/p>\n

I decided to take a break from my usual Photoshop-intensive approach with this week’s image. I wanted to see if I could pull off a\u00a0believable portrayal of a giant Minimate Statue of Liberty walking through a city, using only a camera… this is the result. In the same tradition as the Picard and M. Bison images from previous articles, I placed the Minimate in front of an image of NYC and took the picture. No editing or special effects.<\/p>\n
