That statue of Nightcrawler reminds me of Zoolander, haha.

I really don't know why you're saying this, since I don't recognize Ben Stiller's character in Kurt.
But LOL. This stupid movie made me laugh a lot.

Nand is going to be poor now...for she has just ordered one! Will cost her $AU270 it will!

But it is her Precious...and she wants it...but must wait until end of May!

ack! $175! Poor me! And I already nearly went bust on the bust. I like it a lot, even if he does look a bit constipated.
Also, notice how the Cockrum costume keeps coming back. There is really no alternative.

Everyone else can afford one but goes broke. I'm broke in the first place so I have no buyers remorse... except I'm remorseful because I can't buy it.

The final version at http://www.bowendesigns.com is just excellent !

I've been waiting for this forever -like the solo series.

I love it when dreams come true !!
(okay, in this particular case, dreams have a price...)

o0o0o you live in Australia too.

Please tell me, how do you go about purchasing this item?

Also, have you seen the Marvel Legends figurines in Australia?

Some...none I've wanted to buy though...certainly nothing new...series II and III mostly...

Are you sure? He doesn't look like an ambi-turner to me. That's more of a footwear look. I think it's La Tigra.

Arrrrrgh!! I just looked at the site again, and not only was I utterly taken with the statue, I saw that "limited edition" part of the little ad down on the bottom left corner! I'm so doomed....

*reaches into her pocket and, sighing, brings out her credit card....*

And in what stores do they have them in? Assuming you aren't talking about the online stores you mentioned earlier.

Just wondering...

Has anybody actually got one of these? As you can read above...I ordered one...I've paid for it...it was due for release at the end of May (and Bowen's site says it's now sold out)...it's now mid July and I'm still waiting for it to arrive...should I be worried?

BTW...Australian K-Marts now has the Nighty Marvel Legends figure...

The sold out on Bowen's site just means that they've sold all of the ones they have produced. The statue itself hasn't been released yet. Bowen isn't known promptness, but 9 times out of 10, it's worth waiting for. And even that 10th time, you're not really all that disappointed.

I finally got to see the Juggernaut statue in person last week, and THAT was impressive. And massive. Masspressive. It made me even MORE anxious for the Nightcrawler one. But Gambit and Scarlet Witch still need to come out before Nightcrawler according to their schedule. I'm thinking maybe August.

Thanks for the heads up. It was scheduled to ship at the end of May...and now that it's nearly August I was getting a bit worried. But if it's just late, I guess I can wait...even though I hate waiting...

Yep, don't worry. Bowen statues are late.
I'd say late August or early september. :

W00t!

I just got mine in the mail yesterday!

My, what a BIG, BIG box it was, filled with styrofoam peanuts (which hubby and I colloquially refer to as "unicorn shit"). Then we got to the REAL box inside, which further was filled with hard styrofoam.... Let's just say that this statue came to us well-protected and in perfect condition. It's in two parts: NC himself and the cloud he rests on. (Teensy amount of assembly required.) It's tall and goregeous. Everyone else should be getting their soon, and it's well worth the wait!

The hard part for me was figuring out where to store the box itself, as the figure will retain more value with the box and all packing inside. One more thing for our overburdened loft....

Got it too, and it's really amazing !
I spent a good part od this morning looking at it..
Very constructive...

Just looked on comicstatues.com. They have this statue on "sale" for 144.95. That's odd, considering it was just released.

I'm still waiting

But then...we don't have mail deliveries on Saturdays...and it DOES have a long way to go to get here...

I got mine!!!

:nodyes:nodyes:*):LOL

It's even better that I though seeing it in the net!

Now I've the Mini-Statue and this one! I'm only missing the Mini-bust!

Nandireya · Post by **Nandireya** » Wed Sep 21, 2005 9:57 am

I'm still frikkin' waiting! I got so fed up I bid on another one at ebay...I'll probably end up with a pair of them now...

Post by **HoodedMan** » Wed Sep 21, 2005 1:06 pm

Two Kurts are better than one.

BAMFCentral · Post by **BAMFCentral** » Wed Sep 21, 2005 7:48 pm

Its very pretty but tooo steep of a price. I have to feed my MORG habit so I can't afford. But I have consulation in the the mini-bust and mini-statue. : ) So I'm good.

And I will probably get the little plastic mini statue of Kurt from the Figure Factory Set 2 when it comes out. That I will definately be able to afford.

Well...um...at the risk of committing a sacrilege, looking at those photos I love the Kurt bit of the statue - but is the cloud really that brown or is it the lighting in the photo?
I had a dog that once ate a ton of windfall cherries and to me the cloud in the photo looks pretty much like what came out of him the next day.
