Passing on the 52 versions myself. I like the Darwyn Cooke one they showed. Really hoping for a Curt Swan someday.

Yeah, I'm not a completist either. I really like the Rocafort version and Frank Quitely's statue.

While JRJR's artwork wasn't my favorite growing up, I do enjoy it when a statue captures the artist properly. And I think the sculptor did a good job with his.

I'd really go for John Byrne version.

the proportions just seem off on this one. Very He-MAn-ish. Plus it's N52 I do like the head sculpt though

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

The only line I'm a completist for is the WW Art of War line. I will be getting the Cliff Chiang statue soon.

I do agree with you about statues capturing the artist's work and the JRJR MoS statue does that very well. At the same time, I'm skipping it.

Another version I like to see is Alex Ross. I know it would be much smaller in scale but it would be nice.
