Diamond Select. Some are good some are ok, and some are bad.

How is Dr. Strange? I am thinking about picking it up as alternative to Bowens (since Bowens is pretty expensive).

The Captain America (also referred to as the 911 Cap) is the one DST Marvel Milestone statue that seems to be consistently in high demand and higher value. Most of the others fluctuate widely with one month one selling for high value while the next month may go for much less.

Why is it referred to as the 911 Cap ? I really like the color, detail and pose.

Cap is holding a damaged/burnt American flag across both arms. Not sure when it was released but I think it was shortly after 9/11.

No, that's not the one I was referring to. There is another Milestones Captain America with a silver base that says Avengers on it.

I recently saw the MM Namor for the 1st time, in Caveman's display actually. It looks really similar to Bowens', except that the base is a plain circular base, and the face is a little different. Other than that it's the same pose. I really liked it because of the plain base. Bowens' base is too busy for my taste, plus I don't care too much for the underwater scenery.
