Queen Studios: Hyper-Real Statues and Figures Leave Event-Goers In Awe!

Queen Studios

HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach - 20 December 2022 - Recently an award-winning statue and toy company held intimate events for some of the US’ and Asia’s largest pop-culture collectors. The limited edition hyper-real collectibles displayed left attendees in awe before going viral online. Queen Studios, the makers of these collectibles, since announced that more of these collectibles will be available for pre-order in the US, with plans on making them more accessible for US collectors. In Fall 2022, Queen Studios brought a collection of their hyper-real collectibles capturing the likeness of characters and actors from Marvel and DC blockbuster movies. Queen Studios, also known as QS, has a well-earned reputation for recreating iconic cinematic moments in a variety of scales and styles. Of the statues on display, the Spider-Man (Tom Holland) life-size bust, and the Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) life-size bust particularly caught the eyes of fans. These busts are both made of platinum silicone, creating a skin-like look and feel which is soft to the touch. The clothes on the Strange bust are expertly tailored, and both feature hand punched hair and glass eyes that bring them both to life with a scary realism. Fans of Warner Bros. and DC, fans also lined up for the opportunity to see these ground-breaking collectibles in person, stealing the opportunity to share the images and videos online with fans and collectors around the world. From QS’ statue brand, the Arthur Fleck 1/3 statue from Todd Phillips Academy Award winning movie Joker stole the show. The statue depicts Joker (Joaquin Phoenix) as he dances gracefully along the white and green tiled bathroom floor just like the movie. To create this statue, the team worked tirelessly hand painting each piece to create a flawless skin texture, before layering fine sheep’s wool on the head sculpt to create a realistic look. INART, the company’s 1/6 scale action figure brand also debuted at the event. These sixth scale figures will probably bring back fond memories of the superhero toys from your childhood, and that’s part of the appeal. Made from the finest materials, these collectible figures are near perfect recreations of movie characters, such as the Heath Ledger Joker, Robert Pattinson’s The Batman and Gandalf (Sir Ian McKellen) from Peter Jackson’s The Lord Of The Rings. While these types of figures have grown in popularity in recent years, the INART brand has taken the character likeness to another level. INART incorporate magnetic bases with movie elements to allow collectors to pose and display their figures just how the character looks in the movie. As the event came to a close, collectors both in attendance and online had one burning question, “how can I order these collectibles?”. For US Collectors, some of Queen Studios’ Marvel collectibles can be ordered from Sideshow, the go to place for collectibles in the US. International collectors, and US collectors can also visit Queen Studios’ official store and order directly from the company or click to be redirected to a local retailer. In 2023, QS is expected to release a limited-edition Michael Jackson life-size bust and a Terminator T-800 bust with the likeness of Arnold Schwarzenegger. All these collectibles are limited and tend to sell out quickly. #queenstudios #doctorstrange #spiderman #tomholland #benedictcumberbatch #warnerbros #dc #arthurfleck #joker #joaquinphoenix #heathledger #marvel Queen Studios: https://queenstudios.shop/ About Queen Studios Queen Studios is the first company in the world licensed to make hyper-real silicone busts for Marvel, and the first company in China to do so for DC. In the 5 years since the company was established, the team have pushed the boundaries of what’s possible for these collectibles, blurring the lines between art and life.

Where Will Odell Beckham Jr Sign - Former Giants WR Weighs In

Betting.US

David Tyree, the former wide receiver for the New York Giants, has offered his opinion on whether Odell Beckham Jr will return to his former team. Beckham JR has been given the green light to return after recovering from an ACL injury incurred during his Super Bowl-winning performance for the Los Angeles Rams in 2022. There is much speculation about whether Beckham Jr will return to the Rams, the Giants, or sign with the Dallas Cowboys. Speaking to Betting.us, Tyree stated, “I do believe he’s going to come back [to The Giants]”, adding that he will likely stick around for “a few great years because he’s that immensely talented.” Beckham Jr was first drafted by the Giants in 2014 and played with the team until 2018 before he was drafted by the Cleveland Browns. Tyree was working for the Giants in the player development team during this period, so he has intimate knowledge of Beckham Jr’s potential. Tyree has also decried the frenzy surrounding Beckham Jr’s return and potential singing. “It kind of sucks that there was this media skirmish, and this is the time to avoid any kind of distraction… He’s just positioned himself so well in his run with The Rams and he deserves this opportunity.” Beckham Jr has admitted that he’s been in contact with the Giants, the Rams, the Bills, and the Packers about potential deals. As hopes for The Rams’ playoff contention slip away, speculation seems to favor either a Giants return or Cowboys signing. Both teams offer appealing prospects to the star wide receiver. While the Cowboys' current offense is satisfactory, it isn’t exactly inspiring. However, the Cowboy's defense is one of the best in the league, with the best pass-rush grade and a high coverage grade. If Beckham Jr wants to secure another Super Bowl ring, the Cowboys could be a legitimate option. The Giants too have been performing strongly this season, though Beckham Jr's history with the team may be enough to inspire a return. He would undoubtedly add plenty of value to the team’s flagging offense, and a high-figure contract may be enough to lure him back in. In any case, David Tyree has acknowledged that a return after his injury may still bring challenges for the player. “It’s not another easy decision coming off ACL, right? It’s like it’s the dream homecoming, but it’s not as easy as you would like it to be when you look at where The Giants are capitalized.” Tyree Discusses “Best Catch” Comparisons In the same interview, David Tyree discussed the differences between his iconic helmet catch for the New York Giants in Super Bowl XLII and the one-handed catch by Beckham Jr in 2015. Tyree’s catch took place within the last two minutes of the Super Bowl game and would lead to a match-winning touchdown. It would be one of the biggest NFL upsets in history and ended a 19-game winning streak for the New England Patriots. When quizzed on whose catch was better, Tyree said “I don’t think there’s a better,” but that “it’s almost not comparable.” Tyree surmised that his catch was the more significant of the two, as it led to a Super Bowl win.

Daniel Jones Deserves a New Deal – Former Giant & ‘Helmet Catch’ WR Speaks Up

Betting.US

David Tyree, the former wide receiver for the New York Giants, has shared his opinion that current Giants quarterback Daniel Jones should be offered another contract. Although Tyree admits that it will be a complex decision to make, Jones has certainly “earned the right to another opportunity.” In his interview with Betting.us, Tyree highlighted Jones’ recent season as indicating a valuable talent. Speaking of his achievements on the field this year, he said that the coaching staff is likely to have noticed that “we can trust [him to deliver] … and I think that’s a tribute to him.” He also noted that despite not getting a fifth-year option, Jones “performed when the pressure was on, with a team and a coach that believes in him.” The 2022 season marked the fourth and final year of Jones’ rookie quarterback contract. If the team were to extend the option, his contract would be worth around $23 million. Depending on his performance at the end of this season, Jones may still be offered a long-term deal. A contract would then cost the team roughly $30 million. As of December 20, 2022, he has made 57 touchdowns for the Giants since being signed in 2019. Jones’ future will be decided in large part by head coach Brian Daboll. According to Tyree, Jones has led what is the Giants’ “dismal” offense, and that outside of him, “there is not a lot of talent around that offense in a lot of different positions.” That said, Tyree acknowledged that the Giants have had to overcome “so many injuries…. It’s a miracle that they’re still sitting at six and three… The offensive line wasn’t even supposed to be playing as well as they played, and they still endured injuries. They should just give Brian Daboll the award at this point.” Daniel Jones’ 2022 Performance So Far As 2022 draws to a close, the Giants' chances of appearing in the playoffs are closer to becoming reality. After the team beat the Washington Commanders 20-12, the Giants need only to win one more of their next three games. This victory ended a four-game losing streak for the Giants. One of the biggest surprises was the performance of Daniel Jones. Jones has previously struggled in prime-time games for the Giants, with the team losing their last 11 prime-time games. A more consistent and considered performance saw Jones master an impressive touchdown drive in the second quarter. This will hopefully be a return to form for Jones after a spotty run of performances in recent weeks. His first nine games were lauded for being highly efficient, with a marked increase in care for the ball this year than in his previous three seasons. In his first nine games, Jones tossed only two interceptions in 237 throws, an impressive feat shared only by Tom Brady. Although it looks as though Jones' prospects for an extended contract are likely, it’s possible that this will be denied if the Giants don’t make it to the playoffs. Whether the Giants can achieve this, David Tyree is hopeful. “I think they can get in as a wild card, my Giants. But… they have to pull off miracles’ week in and week out to get a win, and with the roster thinned out, it gets tough.” Nevertheless, Tyree remains loyal to his former team. “Go Giants always. I’ll pick them to win eight, nine times out of ten. Contact Details Betting.us Patrick Humphrey +44 7450 292577 patrick.humphrey@mytraffico.com Company Website https://www.betting.us/

Skape.GG and GoBubble Launch Global Partnership to Tackle Online Toxicity within Gaming

GoBubble Media Centre

Online social community for gamers Skape and AI provider GoBubble, have announced a groundbreaking partnership in the world of online safety. The two companies have joined forces to create a unique experience for the +3m users registered in Skape, with the aim of providing a safer online environment for everyone across the platform, one that is free from online hate and bullying. Skape is a social dashboard that connects real gamers and has selected GoBubble’s Emotion AI as their exclusive global digital safety partner for content moderation. Emotion AI is cutting edge sentiment-based content moderation, which has a pedigree in helping Trust and Safety teams. Ole Vidar Hestas, CEO of Rocket Brands (the company behind Skape) said: “This collaboration is a truly transformative step for Esports and the gaming industry. At Skape we care most about making the gaming community safer for everyone and our lifetime commitment is to create positive communities, and to connect, share and build safer digital spaces for users. As a result, we’re proud to have selected GoBubble as our exclusive safety partner through the use of their Emotion AI technology.” GoBubble’s international patent-pending AI provides clients with bespoke multi-language multimedia content moderation, saving valuable time and scale whilst placing mental health and well-being at the core. Research tells us that there are currently an estimated one billion online gamers worldwide and that the audience continues to grow. Unfortunately, the amount of online hate is also increasing, and the gaming world is rife with toxicity including racist, homophobic, transphobic, and sexist content. In a report published earlier this year about the effects of online abuse, statistics show that almost all victims of online abuse surveyed reported some level of harm from the abuse, with 91% indicating that the abuse impacted them in some way. Women reported higher levels of harm with only 3% of women saying the online abuse did not bother them. Statistics from the Anti-Defamation League research also show that marginalised groups suffer the most harassment in online gaming, with 37% responding that they will try to hide their identity as a result. And in a recent study by Preply, it was found that 90% of gamers surveyed have experienced or witnessed emotional abuse or bullying while playing video games, and nearly 7/10 have considered quitting because of what they’ve witnessed. Danielle Platten, CEO and Co-Founder, GoBubble added: “This unique partnership with Skape marks a huge step forward for the gaming industry as we’re seeing the level of hate speech within the sector increasing. Historically abuse has almost been reluctantly accepted as part of the culture, but content and comments can have a negative effect on the mental health and well-being of gamers and streamers, and on the reputation of the publisher or gaming studio. “Together with Skape, we’re determined to reduce the level of online hate within the sector, and to help build safer and more positive and inclusive gaming communities.” The companies are actively working to raise awareness of the issue of online harassment and are providing resources to help those who have been affected by it. This includes providing access to counseling and support services, as well as assistance and advice on how to stay safer online. About GoBubble GoBubble’s next-generation content moderation and detection technology helps organisations around the globe to create safer, healthier, kinder digital communities and protect brand reputation. They care greatly about freedom of speech and helping to give people access to tools that will shield them from toxicity. Their innovative machine learning helps to protect people against racism, misogyny, negative LGBTQ+ content, and threats. Its turnkey solution can be rolled out to clients in minutes.
