I only have 2 faux bronze statues. The smackdown HULK and Abomination. I fell in love with the faux bronze HULK the second I saw it. I just thought it looked so awesome. Figured I might as well get the faux bronze Abomination to pair up with him. My 2 favorite faux bronze pieces are the smackdown HULK and Thanos. I have the OG Infinity Gauntlet Thanos, so that's why I never picked up the faux bronze version.

Actually had that one as well, got them both the same day a long time ago. I traded the Faux bronze to a forum member and kept the Regular version. Only to sell the Regular for a pretty decent amount. Did love the way the bronze looked, but only got rid of it because I knew that would have been another Rabbit hole in this hobby I dint need to go down. I do however have 2 faux Bronze Statues.. Fathom and Aphrodite by Clay Moore.

I totally get the rabbit hole context. I limited my faux bronze statues to just HULK and Abomination. I like the darker colors on the faux bronze HULK. I originally intended to pick up the regular version of Abomination. However, I thought that the 2 statues would pair better if they were both faux bronze. IMHO, they pair together a little too well. I think I would've been better off getting the regular Abomination. I have them displayed right next to each other and they blend together quite a lot. I think the paint job on the regular Abomination would've provided a little more contrast in the display. That said, it doesn't bother me nearly enough to sell the faux bronze Abomination and replace him with the regular version.

I think they scrapped some faux bronze pieces if I remember right. Beta Ray Bill and Dr. Strange.

Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

Yeah, I understanding I thought I remember reading that there had to be so many pre-orders or so much interest in a certain character and apparently those two just didn’t quite make the cut

Happy to get these two, though I am more a kin to the classic look of Black Panther, the modern one with a cape will do.

I have the classic Black Panther look Bowen statue and love it and the Daredevil Red version of that statue. I think it is a very simple statue but such a great representation.

Bowen's Panthers look nice. I decided to go with the Koto Panther to represent the character in my collection.

Hard to believe that we still have Bowen collectors out there in the hobby.

If they're becoming dinosaurs, maybe ECC will make statues of them
