That steel bar reinforcement is smart AND subtle. I had to look to see it! Brilliant idea

Do you also have the sliding doors on tracks? Better yet, would you mind taking a pictures of your entire pax display?

If I have extra cash, I will grab this piece... its really a great representation of Namor, very artful and just the right balance - simple yet massive and direct to the point that he owns the seas.

It’s such a dominating presence in full attack mode. I can’t say enough about it. In person it’s extrodanary . I recently got XM Black Panther and it’s a big chunky piece well beside Namor he’s irrelevant Ahahahaha. That’s how big this this piece is . Epic! Another thing I’ll note is Namor is basically a one piece design with only his throwing hand being connected to trident that comes off. It’s really a solid made piece

I have this statue as well and I have friends when they see the collection, think Namor is one of the best and yes the octopus does play a huge part in it. I love the whole statue. I wish Namor had the wet effect like Weapon X because that came out great but the cards didn’t fall that way.

I totally agree . Opportunity missed on what could have been but never the less it’s an outstanding piece. People don’t like the character that’s cool but in person I’m sure anyone could appreciate this statue

I moved the statues around several times until I was happy with this setup. I can comfortably get 3 1/4 scale on each shelf before it looks to crowded. I have a little room to grow yet. I also plan on getting a riser for the gentle giant animated pieces. Namor gets his own shelf though. He is a king afterall. The doors are standard sliding pax doors that I had acrylic cut for.

How tall is this statue?

Seeing this statue makes me want to look start trolling for one of the Bowen Namor statues on Ebay (or even here).

So the statue I just measured as best I could because it a very unusual shape

26.5” tall ( to the highest point on trident )
30” across base
26” deep

It’s a beast but again I couldn’t agree more about it being one of XMs sleepers. It will get attention in any collection guaranteed.

As for Bowen pieces every single one is amazing . There are 4 versions I own all of them

Red trunk
Green trunk
70s black suit
Faux bronze exclusive
