A FUN little note to share, our All New 1/12 scale Ultimate Revenge Bruce Shark prototype is getting his finishing touches and is on schedule for a Q1 release just as we promised last year. Since every News Release should have a FUN photo, and since we are not yet ready to reveal the completed Pre-Order Revenge Bruce photo; well here instead is an AWESOME photo of the man himself Joe Alves having FUN with our All New 1/12 scale Enraged Big Mamma 3D Bruce Shark. This again was taken at the French screening of Jaws 3D to commemorate the anniversary late 2015 set up by Romain Neophyte known perhaps best by his first rate fansite, http://www.jaws-3d.com/ Our great thanks to Romain and Joe for LOVING our Sharks so much!☺

As a teenager I was a cook at a local seafood restaurant back in Florida.
Through all the thousands of pounds of 'gator tail I cooked back then I never thought I'd later in life be called on to provide 10+ feet of dismembered alligator tail! Here for SyFy's Cajun RedNeck Gators [2012] is my "tale". If I remember it correctly this was one of those desperate Friday or Saturday night emails from the producer's office needing this 10+ feet of flexible dismembered alligator's tail on set the next week by Wednesday or Thursday or something like that. Whatever the particulars, I know it was something like 5 days from contract to completion. We were able to fabricate the model, mold it, run the copy and have it painted, shipped and on set one day early☺. Man, what a pressure cooker those days were. Especially since I was still in the process of finishing the GhostShark animatronic which it & us were due in Louisiana on set the very next week for filming it! This was I believe just the next month after I returned from Jawsfest 2012. Those were some SERIOUSLY Fun times!☺ Still feeling nostalgic for the first few films that we provided FX for.
This article was actually published just before we got the call for the 3rd SyFy film. Little did we know back then the adventures that "The Bearing Sea Beast" had in store for us only weeks later☺. Check out this article from Plume-de-Pan back in Sept 2013. (Click picture below) So many people have written us this week newly discovering this article that we thought we should re-post the link☺.
This is from the Jaws 3D Anniversary Screening Event in France a few months back set up by Romain Neophyte of Jaws3D.com. Featured are those Fincredible press photos of Joe Alves and our then Newly released Ultimate Big Mamma Bruce 3D Shark Replica. Our gratitude to Romain and Joe for their love of Jaws and for loving our sharks☺! AHhhhhh, sooo many NEW Shark City Ozark Sharks coming out in 2016...
More than twice what we provided in 2015☺! Here's a look back to help look forward to what's coming next! |
