Bowen Designs: Hyperion mini-bust

Yet another obscure character from the Marvel Universe presented to us by Bowen Designs; however, shouldn't Bowen have mentioned that this is the Hyperion of Earth-712. (I believe that is the right planet).

Produced By Bowen Designs
Sculpted By John Cleary
Size Over 6.5" tall
Type Bust
Edition Size TBD
Release Date September 2009
Price $55.00

Zimm's Two Cents
At first, I passed over this one, but as I look at it a little bit more, I'm actually starting to like it.
Points in Favor
  • Colors - I love the rustic reflective red paint and the shimmer in the cape and belt.
  • Price Point - $55.00 is a good price for a bust.
Points Against
  • The arms seem a little too 'veiney' for me.
  • The base, for a Bowens Design, is a little bland.
  • Color of the arms bother me a bit.
  • Again - something with the face bothers me.
Recommendation: Pass. I guess it was just the red and yellow coloring on the statue that I really liked.
