This looks promising, in 1/6th scale.
Hey! They got the cuffs right!

I picked up the Hard Hero Captain America statue today.•• That was the first Captain America statue I bought. The proportions are slightly off, but otherwise it's a sweet piece. My favorite, tho, is still the one based on the cover of AVENGERS 4.

…Black Vulcan…•• Well! That one takes the ol' "My Crotch is Down Here" design motif to a new, er, level, doesn't it?

I saw that down thread and it is sweet. I'll pick that up too if I come across it.

JB: Well! That one takes the ol' "My Crotch is Down Here" design motif to a new, er, level, doesn't it?
Although, obvious now (thanks, JB!). I (nor my wife) did not notice that. Of course Alex Toth's design for him; it was not as obvious, if at all.

Looks like Black Vulcan's color scheme was meant to be pretty
different.

I guess when the "bolt" goes past the "area" or covers it; it's not obvious to me.
I do wish they made the figure from Toth's design.

I was driving back from the grocery store just now, and for some reason this thread and this particular subject drifted thru my head. Suddenly had an image of people with nothing better to do scouring my work in search of these kinds of arrow designs.Well, save yourselves the trouble! The first time I used the phrase "my crotch is down here" was in reference to a costume I'd designed for the Wasp. I didn't notice the effect until after it was published!

The Hollywood Collectibles Spock statue does look pretty nice. They've got a good looking exclusive on their website which has the upper part of the science station as well.
I've got their Kirk sitting in the command chair exclusive and it's pretty nice as well though the exclusive for that wasn't much better than the "regular" issue, the only difference being some data tapes and a pad.

Not good at all, in fact.
