With Vulture's rumored appearance in Spider-Man Homecoming next year, this could be a must have statue. The paint apps already look amazing.

very happy with the final product. so glad to have a classic vulture for my collection. now bring on the rest of the gang!

I think the worries about not going with the original position can be set aside now.

 

[AC_808]

Agreed!

With Vulture's added lean while at the top placement, he now has that attack mode look we had with the original placement. The lower placement also has that lean, so that looks good too.

I don't think the final product is like the proto as far as the pose is concerned.

personally, I like him on the lower base.

A slight Patrick Stewart vibe but overall, looks good.

XM's paint apps for the faces are getting better and better. First Black Panther and now this.

Still a good sculpt with great paint, but without the original Vulture pose, this now falls flat. In a downward swoop, the upraised leg which is practically chest high, looks really cool & plausible. In most of the other pose options, that raised leg looks forced & awkward.

Come on XM, you guys can pull off the original concept, ..........or change that something that makes this as dynamic as initially intended.

The only positive reaction so far is that the head sculpt is superb?
They prob changed the pose due to potential lean/damage issues.

The base paint is great, but like most their other statues, the costume itself lack shading

I love the way XM paints their costumes. It makes them look more like comic book characters. I actually prefer that look over the hyper-realistic style. It's funny to me when people will say things like "a big Bowen. "To which my response would always be, "Great!"

I agree I didn't realize how nice Bowen statues were until I say them in person. Exceptionally nice sculpts and details! Also most comic accurate.
