Lets face it there are too many Spidey, Wolverine, Hulk and Iron Man statues.

Cap comes in a close fifth.

Let's bear in mind that these statues are cash cows for the statue producers market, these are the sculpts that get new statue fans interested into the fold, hence giving said companies more money to sculpt the lesser known ones.

Apart fro DCD, who just use that money to sculpt more Batmen and Supermen statues...

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Lots of hulk's out at the moment, 2-3 years ago you had to scratch about to find anything other than Bowen's hulk's. Then the movie, lots of action figures but apart from the Attakus hulk not a great deal statue wise came out. Now we have 4 or 5 at once and no major hulk event to go with it, funny.
I am one of those nuters who cant get enough, I collect Hulk statues so I am quite happy to boost mt collection with the new stuff, if you like it buy it, I think from a consumer point of view the more the merrier as it gives us choices.

Shouldn't the finger pointing go directly to MARVEL!?!?!?!?!?!

They have to 'approve' each companies list.

And either there is a large 'approval staff' and one hand dosn't know what the other is doing. Or there is just one shmuck that dosn't know what he's doing.

So don't blame all those companies, blame....Canada....

But,blame Marvel. Although each company does a diffrent take. And it's great to have choices. WWooooo, to the person that HAS to collect certain character/s.

It would be nice to see more of a mix. Soon,we'll have to call Marvel-the house of ideas to DCD 2.

THAT,was funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think there are enough Hulk statues. I'm still hoping Bowen Designs will do a museum posed Hulk for my FS Defenders display.

good point - I bet we will get hit with another onslaught of Hulks when the next movie comes out. Hulk statues = cash cow so I doubt the movie peeps will miss the boat again. I just hope the movie is far enough out to let my wallet recover

Hulk is my favorite character and I'm a huge fan of 'ol greenskin.

That being said, I agree we have sufficent Hulks right now. There is enough variety for all tastes.

The only other Hulk I would like to see made would be a new Mini Bust as I don't care for the original and it's expensive to boot.

It definitely comes down to your favorite characters. I personally have enough hulk statues in my collection, save the SS PF, which I'm still not sold on the mixed medium format. I could never have enough Wolverines to choose from, but I know that many would disagree with me.
