Rom



Kotobukiya Batman by Bob Kane (My pic was bad. Used one from their website.) I don't think the statue looks anything like Bob Kane's work. But I did like the statue well enough to purchase it.

ROM!!!!

I bought this set of Gashapon figures to get Biotron...and now I'm trying to figure out who the other guys are. I still need to know who the character is in the upper left corner (black & white with the cape). Anyone know? I thought it was cool that they made a figure for Biotron/microman...

Liking that Kotobukiya Batman. Not looking like "Bob Kane" is very much a point in its favor!

Local Seattle start-up company has the ability to turn anyone into a superhero action figure (looks more like statues):

Creepy, but I like the false sense of immortality it gives you!

The 3D printing company that bought Gentle Giant was doing that at SDCC, with your head on Star Trek characters or Walking Dead zombies. They also had a display for Marvel, although I'm not sure if they were selling those yet, if you really want your face on Iron Man, Captain America, Black Widow, or.... Modok.

I'm camera shy, so I couldn't imagine putting my whole head on a statue.

My two newest ladies:



I shall soon be faced with a dilemma: I am reluctant to allow my collection to expand beyond this shelf.  I've already taken away some of my lesser liked figures, but it's still getting crowded.  And I already have these two on pre-order:



I already know the one on the right won't fit on the shelf; she'll have to go on top of the bookshelf.

Thom, I use candlesticks, inverted pencil cups, and what-nots to place smaller pieces around the larger ones at various levels. It does tend to expand the available space ever-so-slightly. 

I don't have any available shots of my statues but here is something similar done with some of the action figures in my collection...
