I'm a piker so I can't afford this stuff, but the Vance Astro looks very cool. One of the best names in comics too.

New arrivals. Wolverine is a tad on the tall side. He's about half a head
shorter than Captain America, and really should be closer to shoulder height.
Perhaps he's not meant to be the same scale as Cap? Or maybe Randy
didn't realize how really short or Mr. Logan is supposed to be! Nice
sculpts, tho. The claws manage to be a pretty fair compromise between the
originals and the samurai swords. Only thing that doesn't quite work (and I
cannot imagine how it could, really) is the hair on the arms.

I didn't like the Wolverine's because they looked to "skinny" -- he should be short and stocky - not trim and cut like these statues looked.   I passed.   I have both Caps though and am very happy with them.

The Sideshow Thor has a professional-wrestler-in-Thor-costume feel, for me. And, yes, the purist in me wants the hammer to say "THORR"!!

I did just pre-order their 20in Red Skull, tho.

I like the 'lines' on the animated Spidey. The silouette reminds me of Ron Frenz's Spidey artwork.
