This is a rather modern choice for Bowen Designs, though the character has been around for a while. Groot is a member of one of Marvel’s hottest books right now, the Guardians of the Galaxy. If I had to guess, I’d say Bowen’s planning to do all of the modern Guardians of the Galaxy, perhaps [...]

It’s been a while since Bowen Designs dropped a few sneak peeks on us, here’s two, and I’ll have some more up later. Hydroman looks the best of the two, the bust looks downright powerful. Zola is looking good too, but he’s not for me. Digg Stumble Upon Del.icio.us Buzz

I’ve always thought it was a little funny that there were villains in the Heroes of DC bust line by DC Direct. Here’s the latest Blackest Night bust and it’s looking pretty sweet. Due to be released in February with a MSRP of $70. Digg Stumble Upon Del.icio.us Buzz

Two Poison Ivy announcements in one day? Well, one didn’t look that great so this one is making up for it. DC Direct just announced their next Women of DC bust, from the third series designed by Amanda Conner, Poison Ivy! I rather like the unique pose and I’m hoping the face looks great, since [...]

Not only was I impressed when Bowen Designs decided to scrap their existing design based on community critique, but I’m even more impressed that they belted out the new Blob bust in what, a week or two? Huge improvement here. Digg Stumble Upon Del.icio.us Buzz

Now this is an unusual, but rather awesome addition to any horror collection. Gentle Giant is prepping sets of Star Wars “Death Troopers”, stormtrooper zombies. The cross promotion with the book is decent, but what’s even better is the ability to customize your own bust so your Death Trooper is deformed in one of dozens [...]

This is a bit of an interesting switch. Bowen Designs has been moving towards larger busts with arms, but it seems for this Planet Hulk that they’re skipping the arms and going with a more Phase 1 look (though with a modern size). Perhaps it’s because of the recent well received Planet Hulk statue? Who [...]

Consider this a tease for an upcoming sneak peek. One lesser known character and one popular X-Men villain. Digg Stumble Upon Del.icio.us Buzz

Here’s two shots of the paint tests on Satana. Whether this leads to 2 versions or whether it’s still being decided which will be best, I have no clue! Either way, they’re both looking good. Digg Stumble Upon Del.icio.us Buzz
