To be fair, let’s do some math: A tall human man has a volume of about 70 liters. Some searching online tells me that we would need 43480 ouncs to fill that volume with real 100% 24k gold and thus make a life-sized statue. At current market rate, such a statue would cost 173 Million € or 204 Million $

It would have been gold plated, not made entirely out of gold. Yet they didn’t even bother with that.
