Bowen vs kotobukiya sizes
Hi - I currently have the kotobukiya 1/6 archangel and wolverine x-force statues. I would like to add the 1/6 bowen warpath, deadpool and psylocke but I was wondering if the size difference between bowen and kotobukiya was noticeable. Cheers!

These are my friends:

I hope these can help. I've seen more from other collectors but I do not have the links.

Thank you Jpsarri, you are a true gentleman and scholar! I think I will get some bowens to round out our collection.

You will notice a difference…proper placement is the key to making them appear closer to scale with each other. You say you have the Koto Wolvy and Arch and want to add BD Warpath, Psylocke and DP…the Warpath will def work well with the Koto's however the DP and Psylocke will be more noticeably smaller in size. Originally I had the BD Deadpool, but I traded it away to get the Koto version because I felt he was a bit too small. The Psylocke is a repaint of the original X-Men Psylocke which was an older Bowen sculpt…a lot of the older Bowen statues (some, not all) were known to be a bit smaller than 1:6 and seem more 1:7.
I think you'll be fine though as long as you're not a scale freak….

Wow - thanks for that. Looks really amazing! Are the wings on archangel chromed? Where would someone get that done and how much would it cost? Looks very cool!
