Now here is a rare gem. The Replacement face for the Camp Counselor in the movie Norman was watching with his Grandmother in the beginning of the film. I can only imagine that they only made a few of these

Wendell and Wild by Henry Selick

"Two demon brothers face off against a nun and a pair of goth teens in order to earn their way out of hell"

I just recently learned of a new upcoming stop motion film by Director Henry Selick. As a huge Nightmare Before Christmas and Coraline fan, this news is rather exciting. Being announced back in 2015, I am rather slow in finding out.

He is working on a movie called Wendell and Wild that is set to release next year on Netfilx. The description for the plot of the film doesn't excite me, but I am confident in Henry's ability for a good film.

Stop-motion armature machinist Jeremy Spake is on this film. Is this a Laika project?

To be released February 19, 2021 To be determined (2022?)

The Missing Link Promo Figure

photo by movieheaven1968

Rare Promo Link Figure made by Laika Studios and sent to HFPA for consideration at the Golden Globes. It appears that this figure is so fragile and a upon arrival, the figures where broken in transit. 

ParaNorman Zombie Maquette's Props




(Laika, 2012) Original production character maquette constructed of solid cast resin and expertly studio painted in primer gray. The figure is affixed to a black cast resin oval base, which has been signed in silver ink on the base bottom by character sculptor Kent Melton. The maquette and base measure 15 x 14 x 6.5 in. In production used very fine condition. Comes with a COA from artist Kent Melton" -from ebay listing itsonlytym

I love seeing behind the scenes props and art from Laika's films.
