Cool Juggernaut comparison Bowen vs Kotobukiya

Hello guys,

Many people are wondering which is the best 1/6 Juggernaut statue. For me, it is very debatable. I just got the Koto and I like it. Here are some quick pics for those interested.




I will have a review of the Koto soon in my channel and an official review for the forum in the days to come. I will also post better comparison pics here and a showdown video at some point.

However, you did not answer the $1 million question: which is best? Or is that only to be revealed int eh showdown video?

I gotta go with Bowen. I like the little bit of red/maroon in the paintjob as well as the gloss too.

Great comparison pics! Thank you!

Looking forward in picking up Kotobukiya Juggernaut .... very impressive indeed

I haven't decided yet. It takes time to come to an honest conclusion.

Both look very good. I thought the Koto one was the only choice.

I like the Bowen statue better. It has a sleeker sculpt and better paint job. But it's a little small to be displaying alongside modern Bowen statues or any of the Kotobukiya pieces.

One of those situations where you can't go wrong with either one.

While I loved the Bowen piece the fact that he is looking downwards makes it a difficult piece to display. Probably requires a higher shelf. I have not seen the Koto in person but that fact that its looking head on gives it an advantage for posing. I also think it would pose better with the Bowen Colossus and the Koto Colossus would pose better with the Bowen Juggernaut.
