I would think then that the Bowen statues would have definitely been between a 1/8 scale to a 1/6 scale (not counting any of the Goliath, Giant-Man, Sentinel or Galactus statues which were between 16.5 inches and 21 inches. Those, I would assume, would have definitely been between a 1/5 to 1/4 scale.)

It depends on the height of the character...a fifteen foot character would be almost 26" tall (as statue) in 1/7. ...and yeah, base isn't included in scale, but is included in the overall height. I think that's where a lot of the confusion comes from.

In any case...as far as Bowen said, they're 1/7, but I don't really care if they're 1/7 or 1/2...they're the ----.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

A true 1/4 scale Sentinel (that is 20 feet high according to wiki) would be around 5 feet tall. Scales aren't based on overall statue height.

Randy has been very active on his Instagram account.

Nostalgia, preparing ground for a big return or just the hype for a fairly quite new account?

well even though most Bowen statue prices are on the rise, the statue gods were smiling on me recently. I was able to get the Sub-Mariner FS (green trunks) for under $200 and the Silver Surfer Action for $275. I was quite happy and will now be able to start building up my Defenders collection (though with how much Dr Strange goes for they might be missing a member).

Maybe it's because I don't use eBay but I have actually had a pretty hard time selling some of my Bowens. Not even at high prices either.
