(Disney, 1990) An extremely rare production maquette of the villain Percival C. McLeach from The Rescuers Down Under. Maquettes have long been used as dimensional reference tools in order to assist the lead animators in achieving consistent character design throughout the film. This particular maquette is constructed of cast resin and is marked on the base as number 14 of 15 created. Standing 13.25" tall, the maquette is in fair condition with surface wear throughout, including worn areas of the grey paint, and various small scuffs and nicks. There are cracks on the rifle at the base of the barrel and in the left forearm, and the feather in McLeach's cap is removed. Very few maquettes are created for production, making them very highly sought-after dimensional pieces of animation history.
