Limited Edition Spaceship Earth 40th Anniversary by Arribas Brothers – $99,000
The Arribas Brothers are back at it again, but this time, instead of creating a crystal covered replica of Cinderella Castle, they have honored EPCOT’s park icon, Spaceship Earth. This limited edition Arribas Brothers’ rainbow colored replica figure of Spaceship Earth has been spotted at Kunstarbeit in Kristall at the Germany Pavilion in EPCOT and was released as part of the EPCOT 40th anniversary. The statue comes with a certificate of authenticity and is a limited production of 40. It retails for $99,000.
The ball and grass are completely covered in Austrian crystal stones and rest on top of a black circular base.
Here you can see the details on the “grass” area where the crystals go from a darker green to a lighter green in an ombre style.
Both the left and right sides of the figure seem to have the same design.
The base has a blue and silver crystal trim to finish off the figure, and it rests on top of a black base featuring a small EPCOT 40th anniversary emblem in gold.
Each comes with a signed certificate of authenticity. It details the extensive process of hand-setting each of the 155,300 crystals over 681 hours for each figure.
Earlier during the anniversary, crystal replicas of the entrance pylons also debuted at a smaller price point of $1,250.
These Spaceship Earth replica figures are limited, but we are curious; would you bring one home? Let us know in the comments.
