ARE YOU A HUGE DETHKLOK FAN WITH $40,000 TO BURN?

dethklok fountainThen why not piss it away on a pissing fountain? I’m guessing not many Dethklok fans have $40,000 of discretionary income, but if you happen to be so fortunate/stupid you can spend it on a perfect replica of the fountain that decorates the nightmarish foyer of Dethklok’s luxurious and deadly estate. The fountain is made of marble, measures approximately 66″ in height with a 96″ basin diameter and is made to order. The $40,000 price tag does not include shipping (U.S. and Caribbean only) and requires a $13,000 deposit to weed out the jokers. The ad boasts “Seriously, this is real.” And seriously… this is real.

I love how the creators of Metalocalypse have created their own self-fulfilling prophecy of Dethklok being the biggest band in the world. What other band can sell ANY piece of merch for $40,000? Let alone a fake band and an item that isn’t even autographed or cummed on? Unbelievable / awesome.

If you’re one of the suckers lucky chaps who can buy one of these, kindly tell them MetalSucks sent you so we can get a sweet commission!

      Would you spend 8-12 weeks making this with no guaranteed buyer? If you would, then get a job you freakin hippie.

        Thats why he is asking for a 13 grand deposit, dumbarse.

    Dream Theater. Dream Theater could sell a 40000$ piece of merch, and people would buy it.

      Or Rush.

    I’m guessing that there are also Slayer fans that, for the right type of rarity, might pay $40,000. Also, Black Sabbath. I think there are people out there who would pay over $40,000 for some ultra-rare (i.e. one-of-a-kind) Sabbath item.

    That fountain is in front of Carl’s house from ATHF.

      It’s still a Dethklok fountain, just in front of Carl’s house.

    Carl’s house is blue! Not yellow!

    As the HELPeR for the Metalocalypse folder on the adult swim boards, and as a huge Dethklok fan, I gotta say that thing is completely fucking retarded…..and completely fucking awesome. Sadly I am a poor bastard, so I won’t be buying that.

    Interesting side note: Porcupine Tree had a similar up-bringing. Stephen Wilson started it as a hoax, self-proclaiming to be a world renown superstar experimental prog-rock band, he recorded a bunch of material to back it up, it’s a total Spinal Tap rip, but…20 years later, it’s another self-fulfilling prophecy.

    Wrong house btw on all of your posts, it’s Braks house from The Brak Show.
