Hand-painted Dragonborn statue measures 16 inches tall and will be shipping later this year.

Bethesda has announced a limited-edition series of Dragonborn statues for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

Designed by GamingHeads, the polystone figures are hand-painted and hand-finished, says Bethesda, and measure approximately 16 inches tall. The model is based on Skyrim's recognisable key art of the Dragonborn standing atop a dragon's tail.

Two different figures will be available. The standard model, which features the Dragonborn holding a sword in his right hand and a dagger in the left, costs $299.99 and is limited to 1,000 units worldwide. The exclusive edition, however, is priced at $329.99 and is limited to 500 units, and it features an additional interchangeable arm which holds a pulsing fireball.

The models can be preordered now and are expecting to ship in Q4 2013, "just in time for the holidays," according to Bethesda.

Both models also feature a certificate of authenticity and a numbered base. International shipping is also available. For more information, check out GamingHeads.
