To celebrate the 25th anniversary of The Matrix, Master Replicas are releasing an incredibly detailed, 11.8” long, die-cast model of Morpheus’s ship, The Nebuchadnezzar.
“When The Matrix was released in 1999, the Wachowski Brothers changed cinema forever,” say Master Replicas. “Sci-fi had never been cooler. The original movie played with huge ideas as Morpheus and his allies freed Neo from his mundane reality and introduced him to the truth: a world where the machines have subjugated humanity.”
The Nebuchadnezzar, which was designed by one of Hollywood’s leading conceptual designers, George Hull (also known for his work on Dune, The Cloud Atlas and more), was at the heart of the story. The Neb was a rusting hovercraft that used EM pulses to protect itself from the machines, as Morpheus and his crew managed to stay one step ahead of the robotic Sentinels.

Matrix Replicas impressive die-cast model, officially licensed by Warner Bros., due for release on 11th July 2024, has been digitally sculpted before being cast in zinc alloy and ABS, and painted by hand.
