This is your once in a lifetime opportunity to own a piece of the Frazetta Legacy! The 2015 Limited Edition Silver Warrior set pays tribute to Frank's world renowned painting of the Silver Warrior, an all-time favorite among fans and the master's example of excellence in the use of composition. The most discerning will be initially drawn to the sun-flare on the sword, and then the curious eye will drift lower to the warrior himself.

His incredible perception of the warrior's muscle tone, movement and anatomy is clearly a byproduct of his own personal physique and build. You can tell by the twinkle in his eye the Frazetta knew what greatness lay be... read more
