“We don’t know its name, we really don’t know its name, nobody knows its name, and we don’t wanna know, ’cause it’s a racing driver” – Jeremy Clarkson. Stig is a character in the British motoring television show Top Gear. The character plays on the anonymity of racing drivers’ full-face helmets, with the running joke that nobody knows who, or indeed what, is inside the character’s racing suit.
Thought I got this figurine along with the White Stig over a year back but I could not put him next to any car! He is special very special indeed… actually I was waiting for a Ferrari Enzo but this Saleen S7 works out to be a equally competent car even the color matches his suit!
I badly wanted to make a studio shoot with him but why to follow a tradition when you have freedom to exploit. The 360 videos are for more smarter options to the conventional photo shoots! Being a black subject this makes a little more sense to view a video that a bunch of photos. Enjoy it and do let me know…
What can I say more about this figurine when I cannot blame myself for just admiring it when I should be reviewing it for quality and stuff like that. “Focus focus” I said to my self and continued the review… This Black Stig figurine is good in real but due to the fact that cameras don’t do justice to black subject this looks a little subtle.
From top to bottom this is identical to his White sibling! When kept on the display the white scores more but o closer inspection this guy take all the scores from finish to the paint quality. You can make out from my pics that I did my best to show you guys/girls what I am talking.
As all my regulars know that all my photo shoot revolves around a theme…this shoot with the Stig Figurine is called “Beast Vs Beast Tamer” You know why! The Sharkish body line of the Saleen and unshaken attitude of Stig makes them a best bet. Open the front lid it complete the JAWS poster type frame…
I hope you enjoyed this post and the photos! If you have any suggestions please comment so that I can fix them on my following articles..
Very well captured … Black Stig and silver insane .
