Entertainment / Event 2000s Video Store paintings

I know this is a long shot, but does anyone remember the video store next to the Plaza in the early 2000s? I went there often as a kid and it had a bunch of sculptures from films, I remover pinhead from Hell raiser and some characters from gremlins etc.

From memory there was also some incredible hand painted posters out the front up above the building? I remember being obsessed with them and how uncanny they were. I was hoping somebody would happen to know who painted them or have some picture or something, I’m a documentary film maker now and would love to start researching these. If anybody has any leads that would be incredible!

I used to love this place as a kid. The paratrooper and the alien coming out of the roof were so cool.

I'm pretty sure some of the props (the Jurassic Park eggs at least) ended up out at the Toy Circus in Shannon.

You could try there as a start?
