I may actually consider selling the Bowen version. O_o <(can't believe I'm saying that!)

I already did. Even before it was sneaked. As soon as it was announced i put it on ebay.

Ditto. The Hulk would be an instant purchase if it wasn't for the eyes, the pose, and paint. I could put up with the rest but the eyes just killed it for me.

Koto has grouped Juggernaut under their Danger Room Sessions umbrella just like Magneto. Really though, this villain works for any number of categories.

I really like this statue but after seeing the SDCC 2013 photos of this and the Hulk statue standing next to each other I just can't see why the Juggernaut is a good $40 more? I was comfortable with $240 for the Hulk but not $280 for the Juggernaut.

I was hoping for a price closer to Hulk's as well. From what I can tell, Juggernaut's base is clearly superior and the details on Juggy might be trickier to paint. Dunno if that's enough to justify a $40 increase, but as long as the paint comes out perfect I'll be happy.

Oh, and we don't know Juggernaut's edition size. It was a whopping 4000 units for Hulk.

I agree with you guys. Juggs looks roughly the same size as Hulk, except for the base. I'm not sure why the price hike, unless this is a general increase for all of their statues this year.

I also believe this will have a large ES.

I don't think most of us would be complaining about the price if they came out looking more like the proto.

Realy impresive work . The pose represent the essence to the character. It's stunning !

Excellent statue, however the first Bowen design is better in my eyes for two reasons , better metalic paint effects , and anatomy much accurate .
In this sculpt the feet are realy to big !!!


To see in real the visual impact for confirm or no firsts impressions !!
