That’d be like if FJC created a thing and then I came right behind him and made that thing and everybody said “we want the Peedi thing” even though FJC created it.

I understand what you are saying, too, Peedi. I grew up reading about these characters ...and I do appreciate all the originating artists. Without them, we wouldn't have these characters ...and their awesome costumes. Glad that you're pointing out that we need to give them props as well.

Honestly if it was even 1/6 I'd be happy... too bad she turned out so small.

The dream is a reality

I think she's pretty close to 1/6. I know that Bowen scale is about 1/7 scale but the museum Storm looks a bit bigger than normal Bowen scale. At least to me it does.

Oh she's definitely the opposite... smaller than most Bowens, unfortunately. I had her displayed next to my modern Emma, and the difference made poor Emma look like an amazon. I didn't keep her long enough to take pics, but found this one online. It's a truly beautiful sculpt though.

I have her next to Wolverine and Nightcrawler. It's not like they're the tallest of X-MEN. I did just notice that the base on Storm is quite high. That's probably why I thought she was close to 1/6 scale. Like you said though, it still a gorgeous sculpt.

Looking back at 12 days, now that the CoTD piece has been fully revealed, the next two logically will be Storm and the Hulkbuster Maquette since these had silhouettes whereas the rest were just logos.

We also know the Sideshow Birthday event is mid-March - is that the rumblings of thunder I can hear? ��

Well, 5 days left. My hopes of a February reveal are diminishing.
