Beyond My Collection: Old Man Logan Statue by Bowen Designs


Wolverine has to grow old eventually, so why not in a dystopic future.  I introduce you to Old Man Logan...

There were 900 produced in 2012.   I love this statue!  If I had no statues at all I would have kept it. Since my ever growing collection is beginning to approach the limitations of space I have to display them, I was forced to make the difficult decision to get rid of this gem.  You can see here why I'm going to miss it:


It pains me to write this post as I love this statue immensely.  The detail on it is legendary Kucharek craftsmanship!  Let's take a closer look...

The base is post apocalyptic rubble eye candy.


From the boots upward, the Kuch-es did an amazing job of creating that Mad Max weathered look that was necessary for this piece to be successful.


The pants themselves are a work of art.


The simple yet awesome quality of the basic elements of the outfit are consistently dead on.


Of course, the absolute most impressive attribute is the dynamic and awesome coat that I wish I had a replica of.







My least favorite part of the statue are the claws.  They were originally going to be long but were shortened in the production run.  They certainly don't ruin the statue though.



My second favorite attribute is the face and head.  They really captured Logan's weathered essence well.


The hair ain't bad either.



And there you have him, Old Man Logan by Bowen Designs!


Congrats to those that have him!


Those that want him can start your search on Ebay here:


Fortunately he's still reasonably priced.  Good luck and thanks for stopping by!
