On Reddit, a user named MomokaRage posted on Twitter that their boyfriend discovered the E3 2000 Spyro 3 promotional statue in an abandoned building in Saint Helens, Oregon. The statue’s eyes are cracked, his purple scales faded over the years and his wings are missing.

After being fascinated by their boyfriend’s video reel, Momoka tried reaching out to the owner of the building to try and get its location to see the Spyro statue. When that failed, Momoka took it upon themselves to track down the building and eventually found it.
The building’s owner revealed to Momoka that after E3, the Spyro 3 statue was bought by or donated to The Arc Arcade in Astoria. When the arcade shut down in 2018, the statue’s whereabouts were unknown until now. The owner of the building asked Momoka if they want ownership of Spyro statue and they agreed, but they would have to wait for the owner's son if he would allow Momoka to have possession of the statue. If acquired, Momoka plans on moving it to storage where the process of restoring it will start. Then Momoka plans to display him at a gaming expo in the future.
Edit:
Momoka has posted her journey to the building on her page on Twitter/X. They reached the location where the statue is held, the building owner has given them ownership of the relic, and has brought it back to their storage for future restoration. The wings were also found with the statue and has been inserted back into place.
