We've heard Ronnie give Fez crap on the show for having statues of superheros all over his apartment as a sign of his lack of maturity. Does anyone else have any statues or other collectibles at their home.

I have to say I have a huge amount. I've got about 20 Randy Bowen Marvel mini-busts, about 10 Randy Bowen full statues (such as Hawkeye, Captain America, Iron Man, Black Panther, Thor, and Cyclops), and about 10 other statues including Hellboy, several Batman statues, and a Superman statue.

I used to have all of these statues in my office at my old job, but when I moved I put them in storage. I'll probably put some out when my wife and I move to our new house in June.

Here's my Hawkeye and Batman statutes:

As much as I love comic books, I would be ashamed to own any type of comic book-related bust or sculpture.

I used to have a couple of these on my desk at home, but my daughter liked them so much that they are in her room now.

Nah, just my opinion. If you you love 'em, hey, rock on. I've got my longboxes sitting next to me in my office and my ginormous book case filled with graphic novels out for all to see, so it's not like I'm ashamed of the things in general. I just think the statues and stuff look hideous.

I'm just busting balls.

BTW, does anyone know what statues Fez has? I've thought about getting him one over the years, but I don't know what he has. It would definitely need to be a DC one.

I own one statue. A statue of Death from Sandman reclining that I bought over 10 years ago of her reclining. I'd show you what it looks like, but I can't find one on the image search.

Otherwise I have a couple cels and square heads from the old Warner Bros store

I had a Thor mini-bust that a former girlfriend was handling. She picked it up by the feathers on the helmet, and it broke. The thing went from being a statue worth $250 to something much less. I was pissed but was able to not go nuts. I've broken some other statues so I couldn't be too angry at her.

I have the whole "Where the Wild Things Are" set myself. It will probably go to my daughter in the near future.

However, I am not sure if I want to take them out of the box...

I also have a really cool Simpson's lava lamp.

The bowen statues are amazing, there are so many that I want but i am too lazy too start, especially since most of my stuff is boxed at this moment at my moms house. I really need to move my stuff into my apartment


I have a sort of unhealthy obsession with Harley Quinn

I also have alot of Neon Genesis Stuff, cant find pics online I will post some when I get a chance to take pics.


If anyone here likes the manga/anime berserk there are some amazing statues by Art of War... some of these statues run pretty expensive since they are pretty limited. Heres a great website to check them out at
Berserk Statues (http://www.berserkstatues.com/)



love this one

To save some money, I cut back on a bunch of things, including cancelling my order for the Bucky Cap America statue.

I'm so bummed. But somewhere in the future I hope I can pick it up on Ebay for less than what I would have paid.

I wanted that statue as well but alas I have cut back. I also want the Zombie statue that bowen just came out with and I found it on ebay for $65 shipped whereas the MSRP is $100. So I may get it.

Bowen is the one company where right now all the statue prices are decreasing fast on ebay, most can be have for under cost by a lot. Look into in a few months and you will be able to get bucky for less.

That's good news and bad news for me.

I was thinking of selling some of statues on Ebay to have some dough. Looks like that may have to wait.

some of the classic statues are still bringing in money but not like they were, I mean even thanos is down back to MSRP when it was around like $700.

Do some searches and see what you can find.

I did just sell a daniel (sandman)mini-bust on there for $90 so if you have rare ones you may make some money.
