Coming Soon: Wolverine - Brown Costume - Danger Room Sessions Statue by Kotobukiya

It looks like Kotobukiya finally answered the very loud grunts of fans that have been clamoring for this statue to be released.  Although it's slightly different than the statue that was originally sneaked a few years ago, it's got a certain appeal that can't be denied.  For me it has a Sam Keith-esque quality to it that might make it a buy.  It won't be out until next year though so I have plenty of time to deliberate.

That Would Make A Great..."Savage Wolverine #7" Edition

     Much like the last "That Would Make A Great..." post on the Savage Wolverine, this post is mainly intended to celebrate my unwavering love of Joe Madureira's artwork.

Snapshot - 1/4 Scale Custom Statues

     It's time for another Snapshot post, where I post  shots of various parts of my collection, to wet the appetite of those that can't wait for me to properly document it.  This snapshot is of 4 of the 1/4 scale statues I have displayed with the current addition Bishop.

The only statue of the four that I have posted thus far into my "Collection Post"s is the Bishop statue.  Stay tuned for "Collection Post"s on the other three.

The Wolverine (Film) Statue Options 5

     July 26th is closer than ever and I for one can't wait.  This is one of those films that I'm totally ambivalent about.  I want to watch it and love it, but I also don't want to watch it for the fear that it will be a big let down.  It's an X-men Film though and that means it's a can't miss.  But we have heard nothing about forthcoming statues based on the film's designs.  What gives?

That Would Make A Great..."X-treme X-men v2 #8-12" Edition

     Although the current volume of X-treme X-men is no more, there are certainly a huge amount of interesting ideas within it that could inspire some great statues.  The series dealt with Dazzler being whisked off into multiple dimensions on a mission to kill evil Xaviers that were hell bent on destroying the multiverse.  What's most interesting about the unique versions of the characters she encountered in her travels is that a couple of them have now entered the normal Marvel universe (earth 616).  What this means for future continuity is up in the air, but I for one and very excited about the possibilities.

70's X-men Display

     This is the first of the many posts highlighting the displays I've managed to throw together with the various statues I've collected over the years.  The photos you'll see are not of the actual displays, but of the same set ups placed in an area where I can light them better and give the camera a better look.  I want to make sure I can properly show you the displays.

     The first set I am featuring is the 70's X-men display which I have worked hard to perfect.  I felt like I finally got it right about two years ago and haven't changed it since.

That Would Make A Great... "Apocalypse: The Twelve" Edition

     Apocalypse the 12 is the first X-men crossover of the 21st century. It started in Uncanny X-men 376, published in January of 2000. It involved Apocalypse bringing together 12 mutants in an attempt to gain the perfect balance of powers so that he may transfer his essence into one of them. The purpose of this scheme was to allow him to continue his legacy in a new and powerful body. The story's main impact was on Cyclops. This was the first step toward changing Cyclops' character into the revolutionary that he is today. Apocalypse possesses his body (contrary to his plan), and thus affects Cyclops at his core bringing about a new perspective that slowly erods his old ideals and eventually gives character more of a rough edge.
