Here’s a classic statue that I wanted for quite a while, the Sideshow Collectibles Buffy the Vampire Slayer Premium Format statue. There were two versions of this, the one you’re seeing here and one with leather pants. I think that look is a little more iconic but both have that Buffy feel going for them.

Considering the first DC Direct Women of DC Supergirl bust was so highly regarded and still goes for high prices on the secondary market, this one had a lot to live up to. Terry Dodson was going for a more cutesy style here, let’s take a closer look.

Posted by: Dr_Teng In: Statues

The first statue in the Hank Pym statue onslaught that’s coming down the pipes, the Bowen Designs Ant-Man. There were two versions of this, the regular which I’m reviewing, and the exclusive, which unfortunately looked way nicer with a fun shrinking effect.

Today I’ll be reviewing the second Usopp statue from the Megahouse Portrait of Pirates line, Usopp as Sogeking. In one of the more memorable arcs for his character, he takes on another alias and here it is, in statue form. I should mention that I had some difficulty properly attaching the mask (both of them, [...]
