Kotobukiya Fall of the Hulks Fine Art Statue


A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import!


The HULK has been a staple superhero of the Marvel Comics universe for years, battling foes across the universe in epic storylines.  Mild-mannered scientist Dr. Bruce Banner was experimenting on highly volatile gamma radiation when an explosion bathed him with that green energy, transforming him into the enormous aggressive powerhouse known as the Hulk.  At times a hero and at others a grave threat to all of humanity, Banner’s alter ego faces his greatest enemy in the mysterious Red Hulk as part of the Fall of the Hulk storyline.  Joining that massive crimson-hued monster in the Fine Art Statue line, the Hulk is also based on the dynamic art of Ed McGuinness.


Matching the Red Hulk in power and aggression, Hulk is captured in mid leap, bounding across a rocky earthscape as he fights to the last.  Leading with his right fist, Hulk’s left is cocked back and poised for a lethal blow.  Staying true to the McGuinness art style, the massive hero is literally covered in bulging muscles that are brought to life by an amazing sculpt.  The traditional green skin tone is in full effect, with subtle gradations of hue and shadow to define the musculature.  The Hulk wears gray pants, satisfyingly torn and shredded, while his face stands out with black hair and bright white teeth.

Sculpted by master artist Erick Sosa of Kotobukiya’s “Kreative 3” Team, the Hulk is nearly 13 inches tall (1:6 scale) even in his forward-leaping pose.  Best of all, the Hulk’s rocky base connects to the Red Hulk’s to form a dynamic battle scene, letting you recreate the Fall of the Hulk in what’s sure to become the centerpiece of your collection!

Kotobukiya Amazing Spider-man Mary Jane Fine Art Statue Arrives Tomorrow!

KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! In 1962 Stan Lee created the character of SPIDER-MAN, the teen aged Peter Parker granted extraordinary powers by the bite of a radioactive spider. With great power comes great responsibility, and Spider-Man would use that power to save lives and protect the innocent. The innovative superhero would go on to become one of the most popular and famous characters of all time, appearing in hundreds of comic books, television shows, and the biggest comic book blockbuster film of all time!

The amazing Spider-Man is captured like never before, carrying girlfriend Mary Jane Watson while swinging over a miniature New York City. Spidey wears his classic red and blue costume, recreated here with painstaking sculpted detail down to the fabric’s texture. Swinging from a strand of webbing, the superhero’s rigid action pose and rippling musculature juxtaposes the relaxed and feminine Mary Jane. Dressed in her iconic black shirt and white pants, MJ calmly holds onto Spider-Man’s neck, her green eyes and smiling face locked onto her hero’s. Meanwhile, the buildings of the city below are fantastically sculpted to create a stylized perspective, and there’s even a Daily Bugle building!

Crafted by master sculptor Junnosuke Abe, this classic rendition of Spider-Man stands almost 10 inches tall from the base of the miniature cityscape to the top of the Web Slinger’s outstretched arm. As with every Fine Art Statue in the Kotobukiya Collection, Spidey is constructed of high-quality cold cast porcelain and is a limited, numbered edition.
