Okay, so, I'm taking the 40d page, clearing out the broken links, removing the unverified information, removing all the details I'm unsure of, (Hey, their base value may have changed, I haven't tried trading them yet, and I haven't searched for them in the raws.) and pasting it here. I'm also adding the new stuff about statues actually DEPICTING stuff now. --Kydo 04:41, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

Use 't' to "View Items in Buildings" and move the cursor close to the statue that you've built.
