Bowen just posted some news about stuff hes working on now that they have the Marvel license again...

“Heres your bone: First statue will either be Galactus (over 18" tall: in scale w/mini-statues) or Colossus (working on both at the same time). Next will be the 1970s Ghost Rider. Black Panther, Nightcrawler and Juggernaut will follow. First statues should start shipping at the beginnng of the Summer, Silver Surfer is also planned.

Mini-busts: Dr. Doom, Punisher, Morbius, the Falcon, Quicksilver, the Watcher , Mystique,Electro (new design) , Doc Samson. Abomination, and finishing off the Inhumans (Karnak, Triton, Crystal,Gorgon).

Many more are planned. I just need to focus on the sculpting, and not be distracted by this darn forum page...
So please be patient.

Thanks!
-Randy”

Im torn between Yay! and Arrgh! I downsized my statue collection considerably when Bowen announced they lost the license, including the full-sized Wolverine. And I didnt bother getting any of the other full-sized X-Men.

Now the prospect of having a full-size Claremont/Cockrum X-Men set with Wolverine, Cyclops, Phoenix, Colossus, Storm and Nightcrawler...not to mention the other pieces Im keen on (Johnny Blaze Ghost Rider, Black Panther, Mystique mini-bust)...*sigh* Guess Ill need to start hitting eBay and cons for good deals...

Great news !

I'm really interested in the Nighty statue, of course, but I think I'll perhap's buy Samson, Doom and Mystique as well, if they look great -which is often the case with Bowen.
And a big Juggernaut you say... Damned ! I'll loose all my money...

Do you think the Nighty big statue will be the same than the mini-statue ? I'd prefer to see Kurt standing rather than crouching...

Don't mean to be picky...but wouldn't a full-size Nightcrawler be 5' 9"? Still...a decent sized statue of Kurt would be sweet...too expensive for this little black duck though...

I meant full size (1:6 scale) as opposed to the mini (half) size statues (1:12 scale). But here's the concept art:

Oh damnit. I do like that concept art and it would be nice to have a Bowen's Nighty statue that actually had the eyes coloured (as opposed to just blue).
Do you know how much they'll be charging for it?
