[Archived Post] Update: Giant Humpty Hump Head Needs a Home… and Can Be Yours!
Archived Post, but here's the story...
Update: None other than Shock-G himself reached out to give me some more details on the Giant Humpty-Hump Head. He sent me this message to pass along and some additional info about the head, and would definitely appreciate the public’s help in preserving this piece of hip-hop history…
Whoever grabs it up, please stay in touch, and when we next need it again, I’ll reimburse your transport, storage & cleaning expenses up to the current date, to either buy it back or rent it out if it’s no longer for sale. – SHKG
More details:
- dimensions are 12ft high by 16 ft wide at it’s base.
- splits into 3 pieces for smaller storage or transport.
- required an 18-wheel truck to transport and a 4-man fork lift team to move.
- full dressing room inside, w/electric elevator that lifts out thru nose.
- also has metal stairs inside and nose-door opens manually as well, in case of electric failure.
- sunglasses light up and scroll circular light patterns around the rims.
- The lips and chin double as steps to walk down to stage.
- 50k to build; built by FM Productions South San Francisco.
(they also did the giant pig for Pink Floyd. lol)
