Excuse the ignorance but who's Bowen? I was never a huge fan of statues, but his are great!

Armindo, go to www.bowendesigns.com for a look at lots of his work. In short, Bowen is Randy Bowen, sculptor of great things. Several other sculptors work with/through Bowen's company now.

Got one of those Doc Dooms for X-Mas. It's pretty solid, I guess, though I'm certainly no authority.

Often I find it funny when I see all these toys sitting on shelves in someone's collection, rather than being played with. (And that's not a shot at anyone -- I have more than a few toys sitting on shelves myself!)
Recently I introduced the three young children (6 y/o girl, 4 y/o boy, 3 y/o boy) of a friend to the joys of superheroes -- specifically the DCAU. I purchased about 3 dozen of the JLU action figures for them, to keep them busy when they visit. As I dumped them into a toy box, I had a flash of pleasure knowing these toys would be played with by kids.
Oddly -- they don't really play with them. They seem to like lining them up and looking at them; the middle boy is fond of counting them, and is increasingly gleeful as the number grows. The collector's mentality is starting young!

Don't know if you guys have seen this http://www.eaglemoss.com/dc/
Saw the Batman figure in the shops the other day, looks quite good.
There's a figure I thought was Doctor Strange in the advert, obviously not him, does anyone know who it is? Bearded guy in a green shirt gesturing up to the sky.
