Summary0000122: Iron man and bronze colossus leave random statues
DescriptionThe statues left from the dead iron men are of random animals- not of iron men. (note: Animals only: no objects)I have, so far also had statues of notable animals such as "Whale 1" and just "iron statues" of nothing.
Steps To ReproduceIn the test arena, drop iron men from highest point to lowest point and examine their remains.
Additional InformationMy Iron Men have taken a liking to Iron Man 7 and are becoming statues of him quite often. He is one that I accidentally placed on the ground instead of in he air and is such, currently alive.

Since my report I have also witnessed an "☼iron statue of a ☼".

Also affects colossi. I had fun pitting them against dragons to melt them to death.

Anybody know if Toady said that this is normal? I think this may be intended, but who knows. The statues of no description (minimalist art?) and the statues of .* are certainly bugs though.

Oh yea, I can confirm that the statues can still show up as a statue of a * in .8 WIth the * being the quality symbol.

Still in 40.0x. On a side note, this is an amazingly fun bug to test.
