Life-size Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Donatello statue on display...

For a change of pace today I thought it would be nice to take a break from Batman movie costumes and props, and feature this cool life-size 'Donatello' promotional statue from Paramount's 2014 live-action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie franchise reboot based on the 80's comic books by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird.

This promotional theatre statue was on display at ArcLight Hollywood cinema on August 16, 2014, and even though it's not an actual costume or prop from the movie, I thought for the more ambitious cosplayers it would be a useful tool for costume reference and would also be something cool for fans of the film to enjoy too.

In the movie Donatello, named after the Italian sculptor, is played by Jeremy Howard and created via elaborate CGI to bring the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle to life, but this is still a pretty detailed cinema standee with his gadgets and signature bo staff (although he seems to be missing his spectacles).

Cowabunga dudes!

  1. Hi, just curious, what happens to your props after they are done being displayed? Do you sell them?

  2. Hi Vanessa, I don't own or exhibit any of these costumes and props myself, merely blog about the exhibits and displays I come across. Most items either go to auction after a film is released or into a studio's archives.
