Weapon X Statue by Bowen Designs


     I would like to introduce you to the weapon that X-tends beyond the mountains of Canada to the imagination of generation X and beyond.

     Any Wolverine fan has a strong affinity for the Weapon X storyline.  It was the moment of clarity for fans that became one of the most important canonical X-men stories of the last 20 years.  This statue captures the essence of that story beautifully.  Only 500 fans will get a chance to make this extra dimensional connection to this seminal tale.

     Here's a 360 degree look at the incredible detail of this piece.

There's so much on this statue that needs to be looked at more closely to appreciate it.  Fortunately for you there's plenty of closeups to enjoy.

Starting with the base, this statue doesn't fail to impress in it's elaborate detail.

The richness of the detail can be seen in the dried branches that protrude from the rocks.

I would stop here, but I can't.  There's so much more great eye candy to show.

The drawn in hairs throughout the body are a very cool touch.

The techno-underwear must be covered, even though they don't cover much.


No Wolverine statue would be complete without a set of claws.  This statue has the best claws I've seen on any Wolvey statue.

The head/helmet are consisent in awesome detail and warrant a look from every angle

This statue impresses from a high angle...

 ...or a low angle.

 And indeed, it's complete with anatomical correctness for those sticklers for realism.

There you have it.  Weapon X, for your consideration!

  2. It's funny how that works. Just when you think you're done with a character... they drag us back in.
