It's not that Malacath, the patron Daedra of Elder Scrolls' orc race, is a bad guy. He's just into solving problems with violence. And he's watching out for ogres and the ogrim because they're outcasts. That's a good guy thing to do, right? I'm sure those skulls are just there for decoration, nothing else.

I can understand a Skyrim statue, and those Doom plushies were about the cutest thing ever, but the latest fruit of Bethesda's partnership with collectible maker Gaming Heads is a $300 statue of a man with a barbwire-wrapped safe spouting tentacles for a head. That's not okay.

He may not be the most popular video game mascot, but his fans love Sly Cooper with the force of a thousand lesser fans, more than enough to warrant a $210 12-inch statue with a gleaming bronze finish.

Kratos. Now there's a rage-filled video game character for you. Just look at him, perched there, glaring through the screen. He doesn't even have limbs and I'm still scared he's gonna come beat me up.

Gaming Heads has announced the follow-up to their Jak and Daxter figurine from last year. The new figure, which is based on the Jak II version of Jak and Daxter, is priced at $210, and limited to 850 pieces. For an extra $10, you can also grab the exclusive version, which is "painted in a special bronze finish."

The lightest contact with Ryu's eyebrows from Gaming Heads new line of poseable Street Fighter plushies can probably render a normal human unconscious. What hidden powers do Ken and Chun-Li possess?

And he's wielding the Blades of Chaos, to boot. You wouldn't want to mess with this one.

The subject of Gaming Heads' next Elder Scrolls shrine replica is Azura, AKA Azurah, AKA The Daedric Prince of Dusk and Dawn, AKA Unlimited Soul Gem Woman. Specifically, the replica takes after her Skyrim rendition, which leaves us with a really good-looking statue.

Not as cuddly as his plush counterpart, but undeniably badass.

Last year the folks at Gaming Heads brought upon this Earth a plague of cuddly, snuggly Cacodemons and Pain Elementals. Here is their heartfelt apology, armed with with the fluffiest plasma gun ever.

Look, Gaming Heads, I know you're all excited about introducing the new Tomb Raider line to the public, but who is going to buy a $340 statue that's all covered in dirt, bruises and blood? Show a little self respect, dammit.

Video game statue experts Gaming Heads have stared into the mouth of evil, and it licked their face and wriggled its theoretical pseudopods gleefully, and that's probably why these horrific Doom plushes look so damnably huggable.

It is our sunshine — our only sunshine. It makes us happy when skies are grey. Then it shoots us, but only because we dared love this $325, lighted, motion-sensing, sound producing Portal 2 turret replica too much.

Collectible figures purveyor Gaming Heads announced a deal with Sony Computer Entertainment to produce a line of statues themed around their crossover fighting game, PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale. Who's up first? That would be Jak and Daxter.

Collectible company Gaming Heads, the same folks behind those awesome Team Fortress 2 statues, have posted a collection of photos showing how one of their upcoming pieces - Half-Life's Gordon Freeman - is coming along at the factory.

Now available for preorder from the fine folks at Gaming Heads, this $299.99 statue of Skyrim's champion would not be possible without the PC modding community. You just don't get this sort of visual fidelity with today's game consoles.
