Kingpin is middle of the pack or higher as far as the Spidey rogues go imo. Didn't Bowen have a great looking Shocker in the works? I remember how impressive it looked, I'm hoping XM makes one even though he's a C or D lister his design looks cool and it breaks up some of the green of the other rogues(as does Kingpin)

I actually just picked her up...I think the head is serviceable, but you're right...bit of a butter face. Bit of a 'the bust is better than the statue' situation in that aspect. Great body, though.
The Lizard is only Bowen villain in Spidey rogues I’ve never owned or even seen so I’ll refrain until I get one and make my call then.

I have the faux bronze smackdown HULK. It's my favorite Bowen HULK. I like the colored version as well but didn't like the shade of green used on it. I thought it was too bright. That's why I picked the faux bronze version. IMO, it's a great looking dynamic sculpt.

Still, I think this is the very best Hulk statue to date. Not talking about details or scale or finishing but the best Hulk sculpture that embodies the spirit of the character.

Gotta get Lizard. He’s such a beautiful piece. Nice colors,
Great detail and fantastic pose. One of my favorites.

I agree with you. It's a phenomenal HULK sculpt. The pose flat out screams HULK and Randy did a phenomenal job with the sculpt itself. The Smackdown HULK and the latest XM transformation HULK are my 2 favorite HULK statues.

You and me both. I wanted both versions cause I love the Frightful Four version. Now I have neither. Which sucks.

There are NO Hulks worse than Rhino. That is fact.
Agreed

Reminds me of bygone days...
