The Maschinenmensch ("machine-human") is an iconic robot character from the 1927 silent film Metropolis, directed by Fritz Lang. A 1/4 scale statue of the Maschinenmensch would be a detailed collectible standing at roughly one-quarter of the height of the original. Given that the Maschinenmensch design in the film was a humanoid, metallic figure, with its distinctive Art Deco style and sleek, futuristic lines, the statue would likely feature intricate detailing on the armor-like plating, smooth curves, and a shining, metallic finish.
