Saphira Figurine Kickstarter!

Saphira Figurine Kickstarter

Christopher Paolini is delighted to be partnering the talented team at Wraithmarked Creative to bring fans the first ever World of Eragon collectable: Saphira! The figurine is quite the pip, as we think you’ll agree!

Not only that but pledges have nearly reached $1,000,000 with only nine days to go!

This figurine precisely matches how Christopher envisioned Saphira as she appeared at the end of Eragon. Wraithmarked has shared:

“This collectible statue was modeled by Otavio Liborio with Christopher’s direct supervision, including over 50 back-and-forth feedback iterations on everything from Saphira’s head to her wings, scales, pose, and base.

She stands at around 12″ (~30.5cm) tall from base to the top of her wing, and on a 5″ (~12.7cm) base decorated with custom script in the human runes of the World of Eragon, all of which were hand drafted by Christopher himself!

Saphira will be made of grey injection-molded PVC, maximizing not only her durability but also topping out the amount of detail we can pack into the model!

Saphira will come in 5 to 6 separate parts, all of which will be pre-magnetized to allow backers not only to snap her together in seconds, but also pull her apart to allow for convenient storage, easier painting for those who want to, and simpler movement from place to place!”

Backers can look forward to a host of fun add-ons such as a figurine of Eragon in battle, busts of Saphira, commissioned art (not prints, but original art!), and more!
