Wow!
It's gonna be hard for me to decide between Nightcrawler, Gambit, and the Scarlet Witch, if and when they come out!
I love them all...*whimper*
Boy, my wallet's gonna burn.

I tried doing that for Christmas, Slarti; no one paid attention to the fan(atic). ;)

It's been a year or so I'm saving money for this one.
But there is also a Magneto statue coming.

*speaking to my girlfriend Emma*
-Huh, honey, instead of going to Egypt, we've got a Mags and a Nighty full size this year. How cool is THAT ??

And don't forget to remind him that owning original art from the Nightcrawler solo series is FAR more exclusive.

In fact you could even direct him to the Darick Robertson EBay store http://stores.ebay.com/Darick-Robertson-Studios
or contact his art sales manager Meredith Miller at DarickArtSales@aol.com and ask for that certain page...

Strange, but there's something about that statue that's just not working for me.

I have the full size sculpt that was the Marvel Collectors club limited edition, where he's crouched and the smoke is kind of curling away from his feet, and I love it. Something about the Bowen one feels off - almost like he's standing ON the smoke instead of in it... I don't know, it is a prototype after all. And I love the one of the Scarlet witch. She looks great - very posed and stylized, yet still dynamic.

I'll sleep on it and have another look.

Yeah...I can see what you mean...perhaps he's meant to be leaping out of it? It's still very nice tough...must start saving my pennies...

Yep! Going to get this statue. The Best statue of Nighty to date.



I like the bust of him as well.

This is one of the better Beast's figures I've seen around. Before his second mutation.

Something about blue and fuzzy/hairy that I like. :naughty


I wonder if they will ever put out a Northstar statue? :northie

I agree with both you and Nandi, but sure, it is still really nice.
Even if it does look like he's standing on it, I think it's completely. forgivable

No Northstar yet, but I saw that Bowen's doing a 'Vindicator' bust.

I'd really like to see a Northstar too ! :)
Bowen's work is just amazing. Gambit is not a character I like, but I have to admit the statue is fantastic.

Gambit COULD be a great character though...

Bowen and his studio have really brought those characters to life in a way. I have a huge collections of his statues and busts and treasure them all. I've bought many of them just for the collection. I've bought busts of characters I carry nothing about. Now THAT's quality!

The first one I ever sought out was Nightcrawler.

Oooooh.... I thought you guys were talking about the other statue...this one is even cooler. :love

And I don't think there's anything off in the way he's positioned among the smoke. Kurt NEVER reappears on the floor, he's always a few feet up, presumably to keep from misjudging and reappearing within the floor or something on the floor. He always falls or jumps out of the BAMF! cloud.

I could use a little more purple in the smoke, though...and I think it'd be great if there was a light behind him in the smoke, to show the energy.

word.

I think the smoke plumes look too much like octopus tentacles. Or like coral. O_o

These are painted prototypes so the Nighty statue is still in the works. Not final I would think. They are probably taking feedback in some form or another. So we need to email them with our input. Not that it would work but if they want this baby to sell then they should listen to those willing to shell out the money for a beautiful piece like this. :)

They are probably spying on us. Right. Now. They probably made a deal with the NSA, and probably bugged the computer monitors and speakers with little cameras and microphones...:shifty Trust no one!

Actually, I think that would be very nice to send in feed back, it could help.:shrug...and it couldn't hurt if we did, ya never know, they might just listen.

If you want to talk with Bowen's staff, go to their forum.
I registered last week. :)

Darick, I, too, started with the Nightcrawler mini-bust. I also bought Wolvie, Rogue, and I've got the Dr Doom and the Phoenix statue.:)
