Kickstart This: The Johnny Alpha/Strontium Dog Statue Of Your Dreams
by Richard Bruton
Crowdfunding the chance to get hold of one of 2000 AD’s finest characters as a 1:6 Scale Strontium Dog, Johnny Alpha statue.
Fully authorised by 2000 AD/Rebellion and Produced by Alan Fisher of Fish Collectables, this really does look like THE statue any fan of Johnny Alpha will want.
The $20k target will fund the making of 500 of these beauties – the basic statue of one of 2000 AD’s greatest heroes, the mutant bounty hunter Johnny Alpha is made to 1:6 scale with what looks like pretty amazing detailing.
On top of that, there’s plenty of stretch goals available to add bits to it –
$25,000: Two alternate hands, one holding his Blaster and one holding his Electronux. $30,000: Johnny’s head without helmet. $40,000: A desert base with a Stix Brothers hat on it OR a Gronk. This is going to be decided (if they hit that goal) by a vote – but surely it has to be the Gronk???
In his Kickstarter notes, Fisher tells of how he originally planned on making the statue based on co-creator Carlos Ezquerra’s original designs but ended up going for a later version, but still based on a model sheet Carlos did in the 1990s.

The pledge for the statue is $205, but there are various pledges above and below this one, with the pledge rewards have rather a lot of familiar names attached as Fisher’s commissioned a number of (mostly) 2000 AD artists to produce A3 art prints and there’s a set of six Stront badges, again with art from Carlos.
The Kickstarter for the Johnny Alpha statue runs until Friday 3 March 2023.
Below – a full look at the pledge prints, badges, and more of the sculpt for the statue itself.
