Beauty and the Beast (1991) - Belle & Beast 1:10 Scale Statue

A bestial creature with brown fur, horns, claws, and a tail, wearing formal noble attire, gently conducts a romantic dance with a beautiful young woman with long brown hair. The couple in love dance on a base similar to the palace’s floor, followed by another extremely decorated silver base with a celebratory front plaque of Disney’s 100th anniversary. Adding to the line that celebrates Disney’s centenary, Iron Studios present the statue "Beauty and the Beast 100 Years – Disney 100th – Disney Classics – Art Scale 1/10", inspired by Disney’s 30th animated film of theater musical, based on the fairy tale La Belle et la Bête by Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont, a more than special item for fans and collectors to celebrate and take part on the centenary, made in a limited edition with only 100 units available. In the France of the 18th century, a young and rich, but also cruel and selfish prince, humiliates an old beggar in a cold winter night when she offered him a rose in exchange for shelter. The old lady revealed to be an enchantress of great beauty, and even though he begged for mercy, to punish him for the lack of love in his heart the enchantress cursed him by transforming him into a horrendous beast, and his servants into anthropomorphic household objects. The rose that the enchantress offered him was magic and the spell could only be broken if the prince learned how to love someone and was loved back, but if the last petal of the rose fell, the spell could not be broken anymore. After 10 years, a young book lover called Belle, daughter of an eccentric inventor named Maurice, voluntarily put herself as prisoner of the Beast in the place of her father, after he got lost in the forest and sought refuge invading Beast’s castle and being locked up because of that. With time they started to fall in love with each other, giving Beast’s a chance to break the spell and his curse, and get back to his human form together with his servants. Released in 1991, universally praised by critics and public alike, the movie was nominated for many awards, winning a Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy (the first time for an animated feature film). Beauty and the Beast was the first animation to be nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award, and the only animated movie until 2009 with more than 6 nominations. It also won two prizes, Best Original Score, and Best Original Song. The statue is already available for Pre-Order, revealed for the first time on the Inside Iron Studios Day show of April on Iron Studios’ official YouTube channel, check out the other celebratory statues of the 100 years of Disney: Mickey-Fantasia and Scar-The Lion King previously revealed.
