PlayStation — Twisted Metal 2 — Console Heroes Diorama, 7 cm

Rediscover the explosive world of Twisted Metal 2 with this Console Heroes mini-diorama dedicated to the fearsome Sweet Tooth. Inspired by the Hong Kong level of the famous motorised combat game, this collectable features his iconic ice cream van set amidst an urban landscape ravaged by the clashes.

The diorama is housed in a fold-out box replicating the look of a first-generation PlayStation game box. Once opened, it reveals a raised street scene featuring urban elements, sculpted explosion effects and a printed backdrop evoking the chaotic streets of Hong Kong.

The set includes Sweet Tooth’s famous ice cream van, recognisable by its colourful bodywork and the clown’s head mounted on its roof. The vehicle comes with a base and various repositionable scenery pieces, allowing you to customise the display scene.

The diorama measures approximately 7 cm in height and can be folded shut to form a compact object reminiscent of the old PlayStation cases. Its retro design is aimed at video game collectors, Twisted Metal fans and enthusiasts of products dedicated to the history of the Sony console.

Origin and character lore

Twisted Metal is a series of motorised combat games in which various drivers battle it out in heavily armed vehicles. Each participant takes part in a tournament organised by the mysterious Calypso, who promises to grant the winner’s wish – often in a cruel or unpredictable manner.

Originally released on PlayStation, Twisted Metal 2 expands the tournament to several major cities around the world. The arenas become battlefields where competitors use missiles, machine guns, mines and special attacks to destroy their opponents.

Sweet Tooth is one of the franchise’s most famous characters. Behind this name lies Needles Kane, a violent criminal usually depicted wearing a clown mask and sporting flaming hair. His menacing appearance contrasts with his vehicle: an ice-cream van decorated in childlike colours.

Sweet Tooth’s lorry is equipped with several weapons and a particularly devastating special attack. This combination of a vehicle designed to deliver ice cream and a murderous driver perfectly encapsulates the black humour and chaotic atmosphere of Twisted Metal.

In Twisted Metal 2, Sweet Tooth once again takes part in the Calypso tournament to pursue his own objectives. He races through various international arenas, including a level set in the streets of Hong Kong – a setting directly depicted in this diorama.

This Console Heroes model thus pays tribute to one of the most iconic figures from the original PlayStation, bringing together Sweet Tooth’s truck, a destructible urban setting and the retro aesthetic of the original game box.
