Stan Winston’s Pumpkinhead, one of the all-time great creature designs, debuted in 1988 and went on to wreak havoc in three consecutive films, but he hasn’t been seen or heard from since 2007’s Pumpkinhead: Blood Feud. It’s been a long time since the big guy received his own official collectable, but happily, a fantastic statue is on the way.
Sideshow and Premium Collectibles Studio (PCS) have announced an all-new limited edition horror collectible inspired by special effects master Stan Winston’s 1988 directorial debut, Pumpkinhead, according to a press release issued by them. This fully sculpted and intricately crafted Pumpkinhead Statue by PCS is an astounding 27.4′′ tall and recalls everything of the fabled Demon of Vengeance’s terrifying horror, malice, and madness.

In the years since its debut, the picture has developed a cult following. It was followed by a direct-to-video sequel, two TV film sequels, and a comic book series in the Pumpkinhead brand.
In the Pumpkinhead series, a retribution demon (or demons) is given the moniker Pumpkinhead. Pumpkinhead appears to take on a supernaturally altered human form, sent to exact excruciating vengeance on those who the summoner instructs at the cost of their soul.

The Pumpkinhead Statue stands on the beautifully constructed pedestal, eerily looking for its next victim, imitating the iconic graveyard scene in the film. The grisly features, like the figure itself, are impossible to overlook. Fans will notice a scary Easter egg sculpted into the base which is an ode to when Ed Harley digs up a partially buried inhuman body in order to summon the wrath monster, Pumpkinhead.
An ultra-limited-edition Exclusive version also includes an alternate swap out image symbolising the beast’s growth in the film’s cataclysmic end, according to Sideshow.
The statue is now available for pre-order, with a price of $1,250 and a delivery date of Summer 2022.
