NAG 75k Castle Kirk #1 of 1 Niks personal copy from the original mold (which has been destroyed). According to Nik there were several offers made on this Kirk due to its rarity, but he didn’t feel right letting it go to “said people”. I am honored & grateful we came to an agreement so I could be the final owner, a true grail piece in my collection. The lineage is almost identical to Chans original 1975 Kirk (a.k.a. the million dollar Kirk) in size, detail, and overall look. Each Kirk had a different look, detail, & feel … I’m honored to add another to my collection amongst the other greats. Thank you Nikos & thanks for looking.
Wow. That’s a piece of art right there, my friend. You’re a lucky dude! I’d love to see it converted, but then it would never be a beautiful Kirk again…
Thanks fellas I appreciate the comments. It’s a beautiful mask. Looks very similar to Chan’s old 75. It’s in very good hands and I’m thankful to have this along with all my other kirk brothers he he, family portrait soon. I have some very special hair on the way.
Thanks Jay & Brother K Really happy me & Nik were able to work something out for this rare one. It’s got a vintage vibe to it like I cannot describe. It just looks old lol
Amazing score. According to sources greater than myself there are 4 original castle mold masks in existence and a blank “somewhere”. I am assuming that this Kirk came from the blank??? I own the first/proto original castle mold and have done for 8 years, it is very refreshing to see it as a Kirk and probably the best Kirk I have ever seen. The likeness to chads 75 is astounding.
I personally much prefer the old castle to the new one and above is a comparison pic with new on the left and original on the right.
Not quite sure of the origin but I did hear the h78 was involved. Again incredible score, congrats
