I agree but, as far as Hulk goes, I’ve only ever bought the Maestro bust from BD. The others are great and everything but I just didn’t connect with any Hulk that wasn’t Maestro related. Since you’re the Hulk guru, which Bowen Hulk do you think is best?

Maestro makes sense he's selling for big bucks. I think he's one of Randy's best , best meaning top 10 or 15.

My personal favorite is the latest regular Hulk variant version. I am partial to the bronze era Hulk so this gets the nod for me. I love Maestro, Planet Hulk, and most every other one. I think the only BD I don't have is Fixit which I always planned to get but never picked one up and now the price is too high. I might snag one if I find a good deal (maybe a loose one or damaged box, etc.)

This Hulk is brutal :




The original Rhino in 1960s was not as big as he is today so that scale is not that far off and he is beefier than the other villains except Kingpin and Venom.

@JadeGiant:
I should have a Mr. FixIt somewhere in my warehouse. I'm packing to move my stuff from Auburn University to Miami so I'll check when I'm there.

Believe it or not, the Shiflett Hulks were highly regarded by the fan base when they first came out. I had both myself. This piece actually serves as compelling commentary on how much the industry has evolved.

Sorry Subs, I might give you Rhino, but I can't hang with the Lizard hate lol. ...absolutely love that piece.

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.

I have owned the savage hulk variant but I ended up selling it when I was selling off some statues
I am trying to rebuild a Defenders display and I hate to say this but I don’t think I would be purchasing a Hulk statue again
Even though he was a main member throughout most of their run that would be a statue that I would purchase with the thoughts of “I can sell this one if I need to”and that’s not really why I want to purchase a statue. Also most Hulk statues seem to go for a rather high price now
However I did think that the statue was a fantastic one
