Premium Collectibles Studio Unveils Davy Jones Statue from Pirates of the Caribbean
Premium Collectibles Studio is set to launch pre-orders for a highly anticipated statue of Davy Jones, the infamous captain of the Flying Dutchman and a central figure from the "Pirates of the Caribbean" film series, next week.
Fans of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" franchise have a reason to celebrate, as Premium Collectibles Studio recently unveiled a teaser trailer. This exciting reveal announced that pre-orders for a new 1/3 scale Davy Jones statue will commence on April 9, 2026.
While specific details regarding pricing and the official release date are yet to be disclosed, the teaser video provides a glimpse of what collectors can expect. The statue will feature two interchangeable heads – one depicting him with his signature pipe and another with the key – alongside a meticulously crafted base inspired by the Flying Dutchman.
Davy Jones stands as one of the most memorable antagonists in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" saga, making his chilling debut in "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest." He is characterized by his cunning, ruthless nature, and treacherous ways.
This formidable character is often depicted as a malevolent sea spirit, with his fabled chest symbolizing the ocean itself, the final resting place for deceased sailors. As the formidable captain of the Flying Dutchman and the "sea devil," Jones commands an array of terrifying supernatural abilities.
Both he and his crew possess immortality. Jones can instantaneously teleport across vast distances, even onto other vessels, and has the power to summon and control the monstrous Kraken. Bound by a curse, he can only step onto land once every ten years and relentlessly tracks his chosen victims using the dreaded Black Spot.
