It made me cry, like with every time Matt gets excited about where things have gotten, i cant begin to imagine how much it would actually mean to him to be included alongside the characters
Now that I’m trying to be an animator I’ve now realized that I can’t do that many details either and it makes me so sad but also like but noooooo don’t make it hard for urself to animate 😂
And any writer as well I did not realize just how much all of the character I created good or bad had a piece of my life in it kinda makes me want to make it a DND experience with the multiple characters to see what it would be like to play as them
Watching the "How the hell is this our life!?" reaction always brings joy. Honestly, the thought that Sideshow, like THE SIDESHOW, has made these mustg be so wild for them. These statues are the ones in the glass cases that you drool over at cons, I can't even imagine what it must be like to see something you made up, that lives in your head, and that you put a lot of yourself into be made into one of these epic physical objects. Also, CADUCEUS! LOOK AT HIIIIIIM! Look at our lanky cow man! His expression is perfect! And CALEB! With Frumpkin too! AHHHH I want them all! But alas, I will just have to stand here with my face pressed up against that glass case and grin because they exist.
My family surprised me last Christmas and pre-ordered Jester for me in remembrance of my late sister (Jester was her favorite from C2) So I can't wait when she finally arrives! And Talesin is right; the color shifts on Caduceus are sick!
Usually you get cast members who put on a show, giving semi-authentic reactions to pieces inspired by their work. Critical Role role cast, however, are the most genuine folks to watch geek out over content by and for them. So awesome to watch
Cases in point, for example, the animated D&D Beyond jingle and animated Your Turn to Roll. Everyone wigging out in sheer delight, Marisha and Matt almost crying in the jingle's case.
The essek Fandom is the one reason I haven't finished campaign 2 and I'm like 4 episodes away. I saw so many people going into like the level of what people did to Ashley and Marisha if that ship didn't land and I just couldn't. I'm gearing up to dive back in soon.
These are gorgeous! I want the whole Mighty Nein collection - Molly and Jester first. I’d love to see a Matt Mercer collection with some of his most beloved characters - Essek, Victor, Pumat Sol, Artagan to name a few.
I hope they make a statue of Matt. Like, a heavy dark robe and hood covering the top half of his face, with his trademark vest underneath. Can have him holding either a few dice, a big book, or have his hands steepled together like he so often does.
M9 is by far my favorite... and i love LOVE how beautiful all the collectibles are... BUT!!! Where is Essek? If Matt has a character in M9, its him. I would LOVE to see hot boy in all his floating glory.
@@isaiahwelch8066 No slight but, uhhh... Lucien is Taliesin's Character through and through. I love the guy but, Artagan is more an NPC, filling in story gaps while Essek is front line and center actually getting real play time under Matt throughout many episodes. ...That being said... You do make a good point. He definitely deserves an Artagan statue as well. xD
@@isaiahwelch8066 Ooohhh ...in that case, they already have a statue of Lucien. They just dressed him up like Molly. ;P Anyways, this post was about justice for good ol'Matty boi. I love both Lucien and Molly (although I'm more a fan of Caduceus) but, Matt didn't make those sassy lads. That was Tal's big idea. Artagan and Essek are Matt's brain babies. He needs both. xD
I am so very picky about figures....so many years they just lacked the detail..with a few exceptions. Last 2 decades they have really stepped it up. These are simply top notch examples of my kind of Art. Sadly they are out of my financial reach...such detail and personality it warms my heart ❤️ Very nicely done 😊
I always loved the Keyleth Percy friend moments and the Nott and Jester hijinks. Although I think the best pair up moment would be Fjord and Beau tripping at the live show.😂
It is art work like this that restores my faith in the art word. The detail, color, and energy that each piece brings is absolutely breath taking and can fill the air with an aura that is tranquil. While just looking at them you can fell like your reemerged and taken away back to the story. The excitement, The horror, The fear, The yearning, The love, and The sorrow... The artist and crews that put all of this together have my up most admiration and respect. It may not mean much to y'all with me being only one of the the millions out there who view your content, but it makes me fell better to be able say Thank you...
Whether they are a professional business now or not, at the core they were just a bunch of actors that befriended each other in private and then went public with their TTRPG session. And every person who ever played a campaign would kill to have a Sideshow Statue of their character. This must be so surreal. I have been eying those things for ages (I love the Star Wars stuff), but thank god I neither have the room to display them nor the inclination to make that room. Saved me a lot of money considering how many of them interest me. ;)
Those are some beautiful statues! I'd say next you should work on some of the NPC's Matt has voiced. Kiri, Victor, Pumat Sol and of course Gilmore should be the first.
I was about to type out "PLEASE CONSIDER MAKING MOLLY" and then I take a closer look and Molly IS in there!!! I bought Vax last year and I've been eying Jester ever since I saw she was open for pre-orders, but now that Molly is there?? I'm SPRINTING to the store right now.
I really wish they would add Essek to the Nien set. He teamed up with them be them and in a way was as close to Matt being able to play as one of the party as you can get. Plus a lot of folks really love that character and would love to add him to put collection.
The interview is super nice, but, in terms of video I think you guys could have put the guys them around a table with the statues explaining parts of their choices, like Mollymauk's tattoo or the patterns of their coat, Caduceus race and colors, how Taliesin came up with the Pepperbox design, Sam's choices for Scanlan and how Dotty came about too, why does Nott use a porcelain mask. It would feel cooler but it wouldn't cost much more to film.
Like their work is genuine art, so does this mirror them and prompts a genuine reaction for some people's amazing craftwork and painting skills... Sow passion and yield passion. This is all just great.
Just found this video. I either own or have on order each of these statues except for Beau & Scanlan (which I am planning on purchasing shortly) and Vax & Percy (which I am on the waiting list for). Everything is just impeccable with each of these statues :)
Update! Still looking for Vax & Percy (on the aftermarket now, sadly), and I am on the waiting list for Nott. The rest are on the way or on my shelf :D
Would have been super cool if there was an Allura and Essek to go with these sets. Though as a DM myself, I can only imagine how surreal it is for Matt to see all of these together. As Sam and Tal said, there’s a part of Matt in all of these characters as really none of this would have happened without him. Would have been great to see the characters that were essentially Matt’s self inserts in each campaign. Any time they sneak him into something it’s well deserved
I was sad that there wasn't a Veth figure up there doubles for other characters who died. I know her situation wasn't technically death but she was a different build, and the name afterwards. Also, Essek! One of few characters that played such large and important recurring roles throughout the campaign, he played a big part. Artagan definitely deserves to be up there as the traveler has he was in both campaigns. But was was an integral part of C2.
Gilmore action figure, Viktor action figure, Pumat Sol action figure, the Hag action figure, Senokir action figure... the NPC collection needs to happen.
I visited your website and I have to say, the process was kind of a pain in the butt. I couldn't get a shipping quote because of an unhelpful error, and when I asked the support person, it turned out to be an issue with trying to get a quote on pre-order items; no info anywhere else about that. The person told me I'd be able to get a quote via the "Additional Details" tab which was also false.
I went and looked at the prints for sale, and I saw Imogen’s “No More Running.” I was instantly reminded of Mal before the final fight of Serenity. “No more running. I aim to misbehave.”
I love how excited they both are to see these works of art. So cool.
It was incredibly fun to see them reacting to these statues! We're glad you enjoyed the video, thanks for tuning in 🙂
I mean as life long nerds, having figures of your own characters made like this that people actually want to buy is probably pretty mindblowing
I totally didn't cry a little 👀
I loved it when they got so absorbed and all the tiny details.
Matt being so happy for his hand appearing in the picture was cute as hell lmao
I do like the first person view, like he was a reality show camera man following the cast around.
That was so wonderful 😭🥰
😂 Matt is just too precious for words. He is our cupcake; we must protect him.
"I'M IN THE PICTURE!!" 🤣
It made me cry, like with every time Matt gets excited about where things have gotten, i cant begin to imagine how much it would actually mean to him to be included alongside the characters
We definitely need a cloaked Matt figure with his signature book.
Or that 'clap' at the beginning of the new intro
with the "tonights episode of critical rrrooolllllllll" face he does lol.
Man, i wish they would make some of Matt's most iconic NPCs figures, i would totally buy Essek or, maybe, Henry Crabgrass 😂
I am specifically delighted as a person who does animation that Tal has seen the error of his ways 😂😂😂
Now that I’m trying to be an animator I’ve now realized that I can’t do that many details either and it makes me so sad but also like but noooooo don’t make it hard for urself to animate 😂
@@OceanSongBird6355I didn't fully grasp the full scope of animating until I saw Ross' Gartic Phone series lol.
(Ross from GameGrumps/RuberRoss)
I love that they admit their characters are psychological parts of themselves.
This is the way for all D&D players who actually role-play.
And any writer as well I did not realize just how much all of the character I created good or bad had a piece of my life in it kinda makes me want to make it a DND experience with the multiple characters to see what it would be like to play as them
Easy call: Make figures of Matt's top NPCs, some being almost as popular as the PCs.
There has to be a Victor statue in development.
Ruby of the Sea!!😍
I could see doing 1-3 NPCs from each game. I feel characters like artagon, victor, ruby of the sea, nightmare king etc would sell
Gilmore C1, Essek C2, Estheross C3?
I bet the group would lose it if there was a Kiri statue.
I love how vibrant Keyleth is. Her dress, her cape, its all so vibrant and colorful.
Thanks for watching!
I was literally thinking "Wow I can't wait to see Nott and Caduceus painted" and then this popped up!
Woohoo! So glad your wish was granted!
Watching the "How the hell is this our life!?" reaction always brings joy. Honestly, the thought that Sideshow, like THE SIDESHOW, has made these mustg be so wild for them.

The fact that Taliesin was INTETIONALLY trying to torture cosplayers is immaculate
Sam and Tal talking about using the figures as "minis" in the game 😂 they are such real players
I think Matt can claim Doty as his figure.
He should have gotten an Essek!
@@arandomcheese that could be for the Mighty Nein side. One each.
Maybe the Traveler?
Victor for sure
He does have Gilmore. Though I think he will share that with Aabria and Sunil.
Okay but Matt being so happy for his hand being in the picture made me happy cry. GDI, Matt
Awww...the look on his face! So sweet...like Critmas morning and he just got the best gift ever..😅
My family surprised me last Christmas and pre-ordered Jester for me in remembrance of my late sister (Jester was her favorite from C2) So I can't wait when she finally arrives! And Talesin is right; the color shifts on Caduceus are sick!
Update: MY JESTER IS FINALLY HERE AND SHE'S BEAUTIFUL!!

Veth and Essek are needed to round out the M9 squad. Amazing statues.
gosh the Cadeuceus statue is gorgeous, they all look so amazing
We're glad to hear you like them, thanks for the positive feedback! ❤
I would love for one of Matt's favorite or most memorable npc from each campaign to stand alongside the party's statues as a representation for him.
These are fantastic! Fingers crossed for an Essek, then we’ll truly have the full collection of the mighty nein 💜
Thanks we appreciate the positive feedback!! Thanks for watching ❤
Long essek or regular essek?
Yes Essek! Please!!!!
We need Essek like African looking Essek plz.
The essek Fandom is the one reason I haven't finished campaign 2 and I'm like 4 episodes away. I saw so many people going into like the level of what people did to Ashley and Marisha if that ship didn't land and I just couldn't. I'm gearing up to dive back in soon.
someone needs to cast enlarge or whatever spell and then matt just throws down a statue in place lmao incredible!
I need a bell's hells set. I would buy a Laudna figure in a heartbeat
These are incredible, but I something is missing here. Trinket. Caleb has his cat and Taryon got Doty, so why isn't Trinket featured?
Something i love about the critical role team is how humble they always are. I dont think ive ever heard anyone have a negative experience with them.
I heard they took down a bunch of videos for some reason
@@power50001562 Mightve had to do with their previous cast member during campaign 1 who was kinda a prick
@@bman296it came out that Brian has been abusing Ashley
These are gorgeous! I want the whole Mighty Nein collection - Molly and Jester first.
I’d love to see a Matt Mercer collection with some of his most beloved characters - Essek, Victor, Pumat Sol, Artagan to name a few.
I have Keyleth on order. I really want Molly and Cad now.
The Keyleth statue is gorgeous, we hope you love it when she joins you collection!! Thanks for watching 😄
You ordered the number one most beautiful one from the vox Machina .
OMG I do too. I cannot wait to get it.
Grog's is very "ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!" that is amazing that it feels like it's saying something
Can't wait for Bells Hells
Gonna need a Laudna figure statum!
They're so beautiful.
And I love their reactions.
They're still like big kids.
I hope they make a statue of Matt. Like, a heavy dark robe and hood covering the top half of his face, with his trademark vest underneath. Can have him holding either a few dice, a big book, or have his hands steepled together like he so often does.
❤️

" sometimes they give us gifts " ...and that is how taliesin jaffe came on a TSA list.
It's so easy to forget that Vex is in White Armor with a witches hat.
Dude Beau’s bo’s bow is my favorite detail.
I smiled throughout this entire video. Their happiness is infectious!
Yay! Smiles are the best!
Keyleth was the first statue I ever ordered last year. Cannot wait for it to arrive!! Now waiting on Cad and Yasha!
Great choice for your first ever statue order, very exciting!! We hope you love all of your statues when they arrive, thanks for watching ❤
I always loved the Keyleth Percy friend moments and the Nott and Jester hijinks. Although I think the best pair up moment would be Fjord and Beau tripping at the live show.😂
I need the Caleb and Cad statues in my life! 😍😍😍
Wow, those are ABSOLUTELY STUNNING
Glad you like them, thank you!!
If these are the miniatures, they are gonna need a bigger studio.
now im just imagining an entire warehouse decked out as an alternate world with a small crane moving all the figures
@Sideshow Collectibles What a fantastic showcase and great questions asked of Sam and Taliesin. Love the collection!
Thank you!!

Matt needs his own set of figures...Like Victor and Gilmour. Pumat Sol for sure.
1:02 - We're....looking forward to that? Something slipped? Conspiracy mode engaged.

Keyleth's mantle is GORGEOUS
The Beau and Jester in particular look so amazing. Helps they were arguably my favorite parts of the Mighty Nein.
We're glad you like them, thanks! You can checkout Beau statue here side.show/unboxbeau and Jester statue here side.show/unboxjester

...okay. Winning the lottery would be really cool right about now. 'cause I need the whole Nein's squad and a house big enough to display them all!!!!
In the not so distant future... you'll be able to get little robots that look like these sculptures and can talk like the characters and move around.
Taliesin seems so moved! And Sam's like he cant decide what to be amazed by first :D

It could be fun to make even more Sam figures and also have a Veth version for the Mighty Nein 😁 I’m so excited for all of the new figures!

I love the Tary statue so much! The details on all of them are so good! I have to save up
Thanks we're glad to hear you like them!! We hope one day some of these statues will be able to join your collection 🙂
I own Vex, Vax and Beau - and Keyleth and Jester on order! they are amazing!
Another way to include Matt in art, Sneak more of those favorite NPCs into the art
Theres something so funny about there being 9 vox machine figures and and 8 mighty NEIN ones
Love Critical Role sooo much. I wish I could have all of those. Am gonna finish up my Mighty Nien collection. Great work Sideshow!❤
