will the hard hero marvel line stop you from buyin as much bowen as you used to?

[bigben7]

i for one have to really think things over now. bowen is the hi bar but the hard hero won me over when i unpacked my silver surfer. the next ones look fantastic and to me have the true comic book look, color and pose to me. i will still buy some bowen but it seems if it comes down to bowen and hard hero i wont be buyin both versions of a character. how about you guys. do you limit it to 1 version of a character or do you buy multiples?
by the way thanks for everyone tellin me to buy silver surfer!it is the best statue i ever bought

[strange_one]

if it comes down to the fact that I can't afford all the Bowen full sizes I'll cut down so I can get all the HH's. not sure about multiples, guess it depends how I feel about the character at the time

[Wolverine1]

Depends, is there going to be a Wolverine FS by HH coming out?

[Tattoo-X]

Nope. Will only buy Venom and Beast from Hard Hero at this point.
Speaking of Venom statues, has anyone heard/seen any updates on the HyperChild version/release????

Does any one have pics of Beast or Venom? Tattoox, are you just saying you would like them or did I miss something?

[Ish]

it depends on the pose and the character, like the cap for example, wouldn't mind having both since they have a diffrent look altogether, i don't do variants, it's just the same sculpt but few difrences, if it comes to monetary issues than i don't have to get both at the same time or right away, i could get one and then the other later.

I would buy those for my wife, it they're not too aweful.
There is suppose to be a Venom, but no updates yet. :banghead: None since May.

[lord odin]

I`m already stopping with lots of stuff and selling some of the stuff I have.

[DDura711]

Hope, so far the only HH piece I'm thinking of still is the Surfer.

[nexus]

The HH stuff looks cool, but with SS premium format and DST dios, there's just too many different lines. So as far as statues go, done hitched our wagon to the Bowen star.

[Wolverine1]

I`m already stopping with lots of stuff and selling some of the stuff I have.
What does this mean? You are only getting HH from now on, or no statues at all?

[lord odin]

I`m getting the avengers from HH and selling alot of my bowen stuff as well as dc-direct.

[Tattoo-X]

I`m getting the avengers from HH and selling alot of my bowen stuff as well as dc-direct.
Are you putting them on Ebay?

[Wolverine1]

I`m getting the avengers from HH and selling alot of my bowen stuff as well as dc-direct.
I thought you had all the Bowen busts, are you selling all of them or the FS's?

[lord odin]

Are you putting them on Ebay?
Yes as soon as I get either my brother or one of my friends to sell them for me.

[lord odin]

I thought you had all the Bowen busts, are you selling all of them or the FS's?
I have all i`m a completist and more than half of them are going bye bye.
I`m going to get those closets cleaned out if it`s the last thing I do.

[Wolverine1]

Crap man that sucks. Going to be a FS completionist now, huh?

[lord odin]

Crap man that sucks. Going to be a FS completionist now, huh?
Hell no

[Wolverine1]

Hell no

:laugh:

[ashley76]

This is not just an Avengers oriented line. They will announce characters as they are put up for pre order.

[lord odin]

I know but the avengers are the only ones i`ll get.

[Ish]

i hope they do a modern iron man, love that armor.

[Ish]

I only want one full-size Thing statue. The first Bowen Thing is a great sculpt, but the pose could be better. So, I'm going to wait and see what the HH Thing will look like. I think that the style that the incredibly talented Seth Vandable utiilizes for this line will be perfect for The Thing.

And, if Randy sculpts another Thing statue, I'll have to choose betwixt the two. Which is fine by me. I'm very curious to see what the HH Thing looks like.

The same goes for Iron Fist. I'm very curious to compare the Bowen IF with the HH IF. I can't wait to frame my future Iron Fist FS with the two Fin Fang Foom busts.
thing? they're making a thing? what other thigs does hh have planed?, if you'd be so kind.

[Ish]

cool. thx.

[giro]

I might be buying my 1st hard hero statue with the hulk so far looks very impressive , and like the style so far , it will not stop me from buying from bowen statues , but if another company makes a high quality statue , i'll buy it . have my 1st sideshow order in for the x-men vs sentinel exclusive. So if this hulk statue is big and , looks even better with paint i'll get it .

[The General]

I just buy what I like. I'm not a completest either way. So far I love the HH line and wish I had enough money to buy all of them but so far I only pre-ordered the Thor and Cap. I'm definitely buying the Hulk too.

[Ish]

i pre-ordred cap and namor, not sure about thor would have to see it in person, but the hulk looks sick.

[HULK SMASH]

It depends on the pose and who the Character is and which one can do a better statue.

[Wolverine1]

True. I am going to buy what I like the best, if it is Bowen I will get it, if it is Side show I will get it, it does not matter to me who produces it.

[bruin218]

I see the Hard Hero as a totally different type of representation of the character, so one would not stop me from buying the other.

[Ish]

my thoughts exacally.

[boondocksaint]

ish clean out your pms...

[Ish]

done, sorry buddy.

[speedracer]

I really enjoy the pics and the line..If i was a bowen collector i would be tempted to go buy which stat i wanted more..but my allegiance is to sideshow so i would probably just get the stats i really really like from hh that sideshow will not make..=)

[Wolverine1]

Any word on a Wolverine by HH?

[HULK SMASH]

Who cares!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ish]

they should make him with the new costum, there are plenty with the old ones.

[Wolverine1]

Who cares!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You shall apologize because that isn't right. :laugh: You are just mad because Hulk can't smash a little Canadian that is one-fourth the Hulk's size.

[HULK SMASH]

Bah!!!Hulk would if little man was not so cute!!He like little bunny rabbit.

[Ish]

[Wolverine1]

Bah!!!Hulk would if little man was not so cute!!He like little bunny rabbit.
Hulk would not like little bunny rabbit statue? Ish funny by the way.

[HULK SMASH]

He not break like all of Hulks other toys.

[Wolverine1]

Maybe we should have a Hard Hero graveyard diorama and include Thor and Jean Gray on the grave stones.

[Ish]

would you really buy that?

[HULK SMASH]

Bah,enough talk.Time to smash!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ish]

go ahead enjoy "yoursefl".

[HULK SMASH]

[bigben7]

[HULK SMASH]

Hulk hate banner!!Hulk smash tomorrow after sleep.

[mcterrel]

Since I haven't won the lottery yet... I have select RB FS, very select RB MS, but only 5 busts away from being a completist...and being a Captain America fan I have just about every sculpture of him (except for the coveted RB bronze... ah, someday...) but I did order the first five HH - I think they're a collector's must have... and I ordered the SSC Doc Doom, Sabretooth/Wolverine, and X-Men vs Sentinel (exclusives) - because the quality of the scultures rivals RB's and I just don't get tired of admiring the pieces... you can't own them all - but this summer has seen some watermark sculptures produced...if you haven't bought a sculpture this summer you may want to check for a pulse! Excelsior!

[boondocksaint]

i passed on all the HH...i might get the hulk have to see the finished product...i think the HH are very nice...just not the style i like...i like the more realistic look...i know i know they are comic book characters.,,,,but i like what i like!

[deaconbluezzz]

Not even close. Comparing the HH line to BD products is like comparing Jessica Simpson to Ella Fitzgerald.

Above and beyond the cartoonish appearance, the ridiculous price tags are more than enough to keep me away.

come on give them a try. Have you seen one in person?

[bat_collector]

I'm trading my painted SS bowen for hard hero straight up, and I think I'm t the one getting the better end of the deal. I don't care about value, I care about the line, and this one is just starting and I can start at the bottom.

[HULK SMASH]

Yes!!!!!!!!!!It will!!!!!!!!!!!

unless rb shows or announces a fs iron fist im all over the HH iron fist...its awesome....

[bigben7]

no doubt boony! hh is startin to kick butt! these look amazing!

[Bullseye]

I think this line is perfect if you haven't collected Marvel statues before. What a great line to start with.

[oxbeard]

:bawling: Quick.....someone..................hold me.

Oh, wait a sec, that was a compliment right? Hmmm.....Jessica to Ella...
Yeah, which one looks better?
THANKS!

[Seth Vandable]

I know what he meant but statues don't sing.

[ickwinzs]

Hey Seth will you be doing a dr strange?

[Ish]

I do not believe it was a compliment, even though the way it is written the meaning is unclear. I can only guess that English is not Deaconbluebuzz's first language.

:laugh: :laugh:

[bigben7]

seth,
exactly what i said! jessica is a knock out just like your hh line!lol
unless they come alive at night like the wb frog and sing like ella you r single handedly makin collecting more fun and as i said before your statues take me back to my memories of comics i read and own

[CKinSD]

depends on character and sculpt but these are very nicely done for sure. Now get me Venom, Thing and Spidey and of course I'll buy those. :)

[deaconbluezzz]

It wasn't, and it is. I thought the obvious comparison was one based upon vocal talent, or else I'd have compared Jessica Alba to Ella Fitzgerald ;)

[bat_collector]

How is this for a compliment seth, I'm selling BD statues and trading them in order to get the HH line from the begining! :buttrock:

And before I get any PM, no, the Wifebeater logan is not one of the statues I"m trading or selling, nor is any statue sculpted by R. Villafane, Shifletts, or E. Sosa.
