welcome to tikicentral.
silpak, located in north hollywood, is a supplier and manufacturer of silicone for molding as well as plastic and urethane products. molding the statue is possible, it would involve using the correct release on the statue itself. if the statue has texture, like concrete, you may find yourself pulling out little bits of silcone that have anchored themselves in the crevices. As mentioned, a statue that size would cost you a few hundred. there are also a few ways to mold it, the cheapest way using silicone would be to do a brush up, you can use less that way. also consider a straight fiberglass mold, making the mold into enough peices to avoid locking and under cuts.
if you decide to seriously try molding this, send me a personal message and i will give you further info.
good luck
