THE LITTLE ENDLESS STATUE SET
Picture
Sculpted by Barsom; Designed by Jill Thompson.

Individually, they are known as Dream, Delirium, Destruction, Death, Destiny, Desire and Despair. Together, they are the seven siblings who comprise the Endless, a family of conceptual entities. From the pages of Neil Gaiman’s award-winning Sandman series comes this limited edition set, featuring individual statues of the “little” versions of the Endless (based on designs by Jill Thompson), each on its own base with a unique design motif. The statues – which range in size from approximately 4 1/2″ to 6 1/4″ high, on bases ranging in height from 1″ to 2 1/2″ – can be displayed together or separately, and are packaged in a 4-color box.

$195, in stores on Feb. 26 (2003).
