@ John Byrne
JB would you ever put together a book of 'correct' styles/models
of characters and vehicles from the comics world as a reference tool?
I'm probably talking about something with too broad a scope for one
volume though. 
I for one would love such a book. *grin*

I'm interested in adding to my figure collection. What site has the best prices and largest selection of figures?

Bowen Wasp-o-rama



The Modern Wasp actually comes with wings for the full-sized version of Jan, but I didn't attach them, because a human-sized Wasp with wings is weird. There's another version of the statue with the Wasp's blue and red outfit from the 70s, but I'm still on the fence about that one because the head sculpt looks a little bit off.

Is Mark Newman still with Bowen? He should just do all the female heads.

She turns invisible as she shrinks now?

It's supposed to represent the after-image/motion blur of rapid shrinking, but yeah, it is confusing that it is just her feet and legs. Perhaps the full-size and wasp-sized pieces should have been solid, while the transitional size would have been completely translucent?

For those who missed out on getting Kaiyodo's Revoltech action figure of Yoko (the GURREN LAGANN movie version), she available again as part of a Revoltech set:

A curious cross-section of comics on the wall, there. It's fascinating, to me, to see the books that have special meaning/significance to different people.
