COBRA - Cobra - King Bust 1/4 33cm

This high-end collectable bust depicts the legendary and elusive Cobra, the famous space pirate with unrivalled charisma, from the prestigious inaugural King Bust range at 1/4 scale developed by the French manufacturer Cartoon Kingdom.

True to Cartoon Kingdom’s high standards of craftsmanship, this sculpture, standing approximately 33 cm tall, stands out for its extreme attention to detail and absolute fidelity to the original design. It meticulously depicts the upper half of the hero, capturing his provocative smile, his unruly blond hair and his ever-present cigar, all enhanced by a themed backdrop integrated directly into the display plinth. Resting firmly and stably on a solid base, with a total weight of 3.00 kg, this work of art offers a striking representation, ideal for taking pride of place at the centre of a prestigious display cabinet.

This exceptional centrepiece is a must-have for all enthusiasts of retro art and those nostalgic for the golden age of Japanese animation.

Created by the late master Buichi Terasawa in 1978, the Cobra universe revolutionised the space opera genre with its aesthetic inspired by film noir and psychedelic science fiction. A legendary buccaneer wanted by the Space Pirates’ Guild, Cobra chose to alter his face through cosmetic surgery and erase his own memory in order to enjoy a peaceful life on Earth. But his true nature eventually reawakens, forcing him to once again wield his ultimate and secret weapon: the Psychogun (delta ray), a laser cannon grafted directly in place of his left arm and controlled solely by his mind. Accompanied by his faithful android partner, Lady Armanoïde, aboard the ultra-fast spaceship the Turtle, he travels the cosmos in search of lost treasures whilst braving danger with unflappable composure. This premium bust from the “King Bust” range brilliantly captures the regal stature, nonchalance and mythical aura of this space pirate. It is an essential museum-quality collector’s item to adorn the display cases of all enthusiasts of exceptional artefacts.
