BD Venom vs. DST Venom

I hope I'm not boring you all with these "vs." polls, but I promise I'll wait a week or so before I post a new one.

So, to close the week:

Which of these Venom statues is the best?

Very different statues and as is often the case, the Bowen seems to be a better representation of the character from the books, while the DST grants the sculptor more artistic freedom.

While I love and have both, I still vote Bowen.

MAN! Love K Bro. Venom, love DST Venom, BD one is more glossy looking, DST one really shows the power of this big guy! In this case, I'll go with DST one because the tongue of BD Venom bothers me a lot...

Bowen on this, the paint colors remain true to the character and the sculpt is much more smoother. I know it is diff sculptors and what they invision but the Bowen by the K brothers seems more in tune to me.

They're both very nice statues, but I think the DST version is so striking and dynamic and different. I'm not a fan of the character but if I had to choose, I'd definately go with the DST on this one.

Actually this was much more harder than I thought. I recently broke down and bought BD's Venom statue for work and it's up there with Deadpool , Juggernaut and sabretooth in the villians dept.DST looks alot better than the preview pics, it is very close call but I;'ll lean towards Bowens ,the overall paint, and especially the face ince BDS thru.

Carrijl-Believe me,if I want to be bored I'll go to a pol thread.LOL Thanks for the VS. threads they are sweet.
