Sideshow Collectibles Bela Lugosi as Dracula 1:1 Scale Life-Size Bust - NEW!

The artists at Sideshow, recreating Lugosi's likeness and reproducing the classic costume in high-quality fabrics, have expertly captured the essence of the character, including Dracula's hypnotic gaze.

After a great deal of research and reference gathering, sculptor Miles Teves has brought the screen legend to life again in an amazing sculpt. The portrait is faithful to the on-screen appearance of the silver-screen legend. The bust is mounted on an elaborate base and hand-numbered (#123 of 250).

Released in 1931, the "Dracula" brought a new vision to the vampire legend, thrilling and terrifying audiences with a new kind of threat. Nosferatu introduced vampires to the silver screen with Max Schreck's Graf Orlock, who had a very visceral, otherworldly quality. When Bela Lugosi stepped into the title role of Dracula, he brought his old world charm and made full use of his thick Hungarian accent. He was an immaculately dressed, well-groomed, hypnotic terror. Bela Lugosi is credited as reinventing the vampire as a sophisticated, sensual and being, the most attractive and perhaps the most iconic of all the classic horror monsters.
