Collecting Bowen Statues
Randy Bowens statues are not for the causal collector, because very few sell for less than $100. Most easily sell for $150 or more. The Incredible Hulk alone is worth over $400, so you can see that often it is only the most devoted fans who buy these statues. They do make incredible gifts, however, and if you know someone who loves a certain superhero then these are one of the best investments you could make.
The statues are as expensive as they are because they are all made of porcelain. This is something you should also consider if you were thinking about buying a Bowen statue for a child. Its probably a better idea to wait until you know they will not handle or damage it. You are much better off giving them action figures to play with.
Randys designs are all wonderful, but Magneto stands out as one of the finest. The sculpting is exquisite, and Magnetos expression is priceless. Mr. Fantastic is also great, with long sinewy arms and legs. Fans of Black Cat will also be pleasantly surprised by how great she looks in three dimensions!
