Bowen And The Unknown

As a fan of Marvel's lesser known characters I was just wondering what you think has been the most obscure Marvel sculpt from Bowen so far and what obscure characters you would like to see done in the near future?

The f/s are all pretty well known.  As for the busts I think that it would have to be between Rawhide Kid and the original western Ghost Rider.

As for future obscure sculpts, I'd gladly take a Herman Glob, Hypno Hustler, Goldbug or (Imperial Guard) Warpath.

It depends how you define obscure, and much will depend on the age(s) of comic books you are familiar with: Ghost Rider and Rawhide Kid each had long-running series at a time when comic books sold in huge numbers.

I would say the orange Fin Fang Foom variant and the Thor Destroyer variant are probably the two pieces with fewest actual comic book appearances, with red Iron Fist probably far and away the statue choice with the fewest actual comic appearances.

I agree.

I would like to see a stilt man.

Stilt man in coffin !

I'd buy a BD Stilt Man! How about Purple Man?

Machine Man!

Doop seemed pretty obscure.

My favourite obscure choice is Erik Killmonger. Whipped T'Challa like a rented mule back in the Black Panther's old Jungle Action series.

Considering the Panther never won any of the three battles they waged, I still consider him my favourite Black Panther villain.

I'm currently working on a list of quot;obscurequot; characters who have had a relatively big impact on the Marvel Universe one way or another.  This would include a single character who has battled a large number of heroes or a character who may have had only one appearance but in that appearance had a profound impact on an quot;Aquot; or quot;Bquot; list character.  I'm having fun coming up with my list but I'm not ready to post it.

I did post in another thread that Arnim Zola was on my short list.

But as for obscure characters already busted I'd have to agree with the names already mentioned but what would you say if I suggested Moleman was an obscure character?
