Groot Puppet – Marvel Masterworks Collection Out Now

Posted on July 18, 2018 by Roger Palmer

Disney have launched a new Groot Puppet, which is part of its luxury Marvel Masterworks Collection, which are Authentic Film Prop Duplicates. It’s priced at $2,550.00 and only available at ShopDisney.com.

Here are the details:

This diminutive version of Groot was introduced to audiences in Guardians of The Galaxy Vol. 2 and became a breakout character. His unique personality and wit are what makes him a fan favorite and ”I am Groot” is now an iconic phrase within the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Even though Groot as seen in the film was created using computer generated imagery (CGI), the design team created a physical puppet of Groot for use on set during filming with the live cast. Puppeteered by Russell Bobbitt himself, the prop puppet was crucial to the film making process so the actors could have a focal point to look at and react to. The Groot puppet was hand sculpted then molded and cast into a soft rubber material. For this piece, the moss, roots, and leaf details have all been hand placed and colored. All elements have been manufactured to limit deterioration over time.*
