I think the Regular Version is much better than the bronze version. The regular Version you can see the sculpt better with the scars, bullet holes and blood splatter along marv's coat and hands

Not the greatest pic but, here is my Marv/Sin City display. No more looking through endless DVD shelves trying to find Sin City, I've got this to remind me where I put it lol.

yes, but what no one seems to realize, is that over the next few years each of them will do battle against the other, and try to elimanate the other from possessing such a valued piece of art. and eventually, the one left standing will have to duel it out with Paquet himself.

For you see, in the end...there can be only ONE.

The specs on the piece including the base are- 14" tall, weighing in at a hefty 31 pounds of bronze and granite. The figure is 1/6 scale.

Spot on! Seeing this, knowing we can't buy one, is cruel and unusual punishment for us long time Dark Knight Returns fans. Too bad you can't afford to send a freebie of it to Miller.
