Those look great Pam. Well most of them do, one day they'll make a great Captain America Bust or Statue. I wait for that day. They somehow always seem to get either the face, the shirt, or the cowl wrong.
Margaret Emmie Mackey Catoe, you are, have been, and always will be my soulmate, and I love you.

EdDean - I love that! The hair holding her in flight is just great! And I have been drooling over those DD statues! I want all three!
Sam - I am pretty sure there is a cool Capt bust. Lemme think on where I saw it.

Thanks Pam.
Of those, the only ones that look even close to right are the three Bowen designs (the old Cap, new Cap, and Bronze Cap). I just wish the star on his chest was more like the star on the Sideshow statue. It would look less cartoonish that way. Growing up Cap was my favorite for many years (ahead of Spiderman and The Punisher) and I'm picky about how he should look. Bowen got everything right except the star IMO. The Sideshow Cap looks like actor Jeff Kober under the mask. Look him up and compare them, you'll see it.

I really dig the Hell Boy & Jean Grey!
I can see this type of collecting could become addictive....
Life is a garden...dig it!

I am a Rogue fan... and I like everything about that new statue, except that weirdly stretched glove... it reminds me of dishwashing gloves for some reason!
Sam - I agree on Cap. I would love the statue you describe.... let me know when you put them in production!!My favorite is probably the one from Hard Hero.

Wow, just announced... About $250 smackers, but cool none the less.
Tie-in to Blackest Night... Green Lantern Corps rings.
The description at Wizard Universe is : Eight plated metal rings (each a different color, signifying the insignia of the various Corps) fit into a battery-operated, light-up resin display base. The rings are protected by a removable glass dome that sits on top of the base. This mixed-media, hand-painted, limited-edition piece measures approximately 8” high x 5.5” wide x 5.5” deep and is packaged in a 4-color box, along with a 4-color Certificate of Authenticity and an instruction sheet. Batteries are also included. * Rings are removable but are prop replicas ONLY and are not meant to be worn.
Note : I don't see any indication of what "limited edition" might mean... ie - how many will be made.
( I've always wanted a very cool Green Lantern ring... to wear!! )

That Rogue is more scary than sexy. Definitely a nod to her darker days.
There's something about the X-23 statue that I don't like. I guess she looks too grown up for my taste. I think of her as a kid. That means leather training bra. Not push-up bra. Sheesh.
Anyways, here are some true masterpieces. I know they're not new. But they're beautiful. From Diamond Select Toys:
Daredevil
Reed Richards Bust
Doctor Octopus

That last Daredevil IS nice looking. I really like the Lantern set up Pam. It costs too much, but it looks neat as hell.

Sam - It lights up! *squee*
Also, it looks kind of like a Tardis, but I don't mind that.
Too pricey for me, too.

The Daredevil statues are awesome!
Love the Green Lantern and other Lantern corps rings.
A 2000 AD statue here, Psi-judge Cassandra Anderson. (It's be out for a while though, so it's not really new. It's doubtful you've seen it though so it amounts to the same thing.)
I'm not keen on the eyes, she looks kinda freaky. Attractive body though....
At £44.99 it's very pricey though. (I've seen others figurines even more expensive.)
That turned out smaller than I expected! A bigger one can be found clicking the picture here:

I've seen worst looking statues sell for more.

Brainslinger - please post any statues/busts that you think we might be interest in, for sure. New is in the eye of the beholder...
... speaking of which - I have to agree that Cassandra looks a little freaky there, but I also have to agree with Sam, big time - because some of the newer statues and busts coming out - they list for 200+ dollars !

Yeah, the price of the statues really brings me down these days. If you really want to cry, look at the prices for those same statues on ebay ten months later, and three days after the one you've been eyeing (and FINALLY have the money for) was sold from the last store in 100 miles to have one. Yeah, I'm not bitter. It's ok...really.

Ok. Here is another 2000 AD character. Rogue Trooper. I started reading the comic after his time, but he was quite a popular character in his day.
Zoomable version.
To give you some context, he is a member of the GI (Genetic infantry), a genetically engineered soldier created with immunity to the poisoned air of Nu-Earth and biowarfare. All GIs have microchips in their brains. If they die, their minds are downloaded onto the chip so they can be uploaded into a new body later.
They're fully conscious in chip form though and can be connected to items as a kind of AI. For example, if you look at his gun and helmet you'll see a chip. Those are two of his fallen comrades. There's another on his backpack. (For some reason, each of his buddies had rather descriptive names. Gunnar, Bagman, Helm etc. I've got a comedy comic concerning the fourth trooper who had the unfortunate name 'Butt-plug.')
There is a great game with him in. More information on the character here
There are other 2000 AD figurines and action figures here.
I don't know half of them. I don't think the action figures are all that great so I didn't post them here.
There is another really great (and expensive) sculpture which I'd like to show you. It seems to have vanished from the usual place, but I'll try and hunt it down.
Here it is. (It's apparently out of stock, hence why it vanished.)
Zoomable version.
Judge Death is a maniac from a parallel universe. He came to the conclusion that since all crimes are committed by the living, life itself was a crime. He (and his subordinates) wiped out his entire world. He and his colleagues are dead too. Through weird black magic his soul was bound to his corpse. Lovely chap, eh?
More information,
That's him in his spiritual form. He usually possesses a specially prepared corpse.
I love this! I think I might get it at some point(more in my price range.):
EDIT ---25 October 2009---
Looking back at this, the picture's vanished.
Reading through my posts, I didn't half waffle on didn't I? Note to self: just show the sculptures man!

That's a head knocker by the way. His head isn't really that big.
