Fall of the Hulk - Red Hulk Fine Art Statue







A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! The Hulk has been a staple superhero of the Marvel Comics for years, battling foes across the universe in epic storylines. In 2008 the gamma-powered powerhouse met his match in a mysterious crimson-hued mirror image: the RED HULK. Massively powerful and frighteningly intelligent, the villain has all of the Hulk’s strengths and none of his weaknesses. With a mean streak matching his might, the Red Hulk (also known as “Rulk”) has beaten many of Marvel Comics’ superheroes and remains a threat to the entire Earth in the current Fall of the Hulk story. Based on the stunning art of Ed McGuinness, the Red Hulk Fine Art Statue continues Koto’s tradition of excellence.

The unstoppable Red Hulk rampages across a blasted volcanic landscape, preparing a lethal blow for his foes. The brute is absolutely covered in rippling muscles, with muscular definition rivaling (and even exceeding) that of Bruce Banner’s gamma-powered form. The detail on the tremendous villain’s intricate sculpt highlights every sinew and fiber of his being, while the fantastic paint work emphasizes his skin’s subtle crimson gradations. A dark smoky gray appears on the Red Hulk’s shredded pants, close-cropped hair, and finger and toe nails. Gleaming white teeth stand in stark contrast to the monster’s gaping maw, while his tiny beady eyes shine with a hellish yellow. You can display the Red Hulk in two different ways according to your preferences with two included heads; one depicts the monster grinning in evil glee, while the other is a mask of rage crisscrossed by a yellow “X.”

Sculpted by master artist Erick Sosa, Red Hulk stands almost 13 inches tall (1/6th scale), veritably leaping off of his exclusive “georama” base. Not only does the volcanic earth look great on its own, it will connect to the base on the upcoming Hulk to form a dynamic battle scene!

Iron Man 2 Mark IV ARTFX Statue






A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! With the first Iron Man film came two Fine Art Statues of the superhero’s armored suits: Iron Man Movie Mark II and Mark III. Now Kotobukiya is proud to announce the first ARTFX Statue Series IRON MAN MOVIE MARK IV ARTFX STATUE to the Marvel Studios collection! Robert Downey Jr. will be reprising his role as Tony Stark with a new and improved armored suit!

After surviving imprisonment by terrorists, billionaire industrialist Tony Stark created the first Iron Man armor. He soon refined the design with the Mark II armor. This was followed up soon after by the iconic Mark III suit used to battle Stane and his Iron Monger suit at the culmination of the first film. In the sequel the ever-productive Stark improves on his own designs yet again with the Mark IV, the absolute cutting edge in high-tech personalized armor! and man-sized weaponry. Sleeker and more powerful than the previous versions, the Mark IV will be the highlight of your own personal hall of armor!

Sculpted by Ryoichi Ito, constructed of high-quality PVC plastic, Iron Man stands approximately 13 inches tall (1/6th scale) atop an exclusive cylindrical Repulsor Technology base. Just like the previous Iron Man Fine Art Statues, the Mark IV ARTFX Statue includes LED lights in the eyes, chest, fists, and base! In addition, the switch to activate the lights has been moved to the top of the base for easier activation. An amazing statue on its own, the Mark IV is also a perfect companion piece to the armors from the first film and the upcoming War Machine from Iron Man 2!

Ayrton Senna Fine Art Statue





A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! The debut release in a new series of goods and Kotobukiya’s first ever sporting figure, the Fine Art Statue of AYRTON SENNA brings to life the legendary icon of Formula One Racing. A hero in his homeland of Brazil and Japan where he competed in some of his most famous races, Senna’s career included 41 victories, 65 pole positions, and three world championships. His legacy of philanthropy rivals that of his racing; only after his death behind the wheel during the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix was it discovered that he had donated millions of dollars from his personal fortune to children’s charities. Appearing as he did before the 1993 Japan Grand Prix, Ayrton Senna charms the crowd as only he knew how, waving his hand and his racing helmet above his head.
The legendary driver wears his red Nacional driving uniform, intricately detailed with every seam, crease, and sponsor patch. Sculpted by Hideaki Hirata, Senna’s face features an amazingly realistic sculpt, and the Fine Art Statue has been officially approved by the Ayrton Senna Institute. Senna stands 13 ½ inches tall atop a special base inscribed with a reproduction of his signature and a metal name plate of the 1993 race. Constructed of cold cast porcelain and including a certificate of authenticity, this fantastic tribute is limited to 2,500 pieces worldwide, with part of the profits going to disadvantaged children through the Ayrton Senna Institute.

Avengers Reborn: Captain America Fine Art Statue







A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! Created in 1941 by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby to represent opposition to Nazi Germany, CAPTAIN AMERICA combined superhero stories with patriotism and the fight against oppression in the world. From humble beginnings as a physically weak young man, Steve Rogers attempted to join the United States military service to combat the threat in Europe. Recruited into a secret “Super-Soldier” program, Rogers was given a serum and radiation that transformed him into a paragon of human athleticism. With a red, white, and blue costume and special aerodynamic shield, Captain America burst onto the superhero scene. Throughout his illustrious career Rogers would team up with other heroes and fight alongside the Avengers on multiple occasions. Though he was thought dead at the end of the Civil War storyline, the original Captain America was displaced in time and is destined to return as a member of the Avengers Reborn with Thor and Iron Man! Captain America stands approximately 12 ½ inches tall (1/6th scale) with one foot on a rocky stone base decorated with the classic Avengers “A” logo. The deluxe motif base connects to those of the other members of the Avengers Reborn series, Thor and Iron Man. Sculpted by master artists Junnosuke Abe and Erick Sosa, Captain America is constructed of high-quality cold cast porcelain and is a limited, numbered edition.

Avengers Reborn: Thor Fine Art Statue








A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! In 1962 comic book mastermind Stan Lee set out to create a new superhero, one who was incredibly powerful. He found such a character in Norse mythology, the god of thunder THOR. A true champion of good, Thor has fought beside many other Marvel Comics superheroes throughout the years, including several incarnations of the Avengers. The thunder god is the first in the all-new Avengers Reborn series, and will be joined by both Captain America and Iron Man!

The mighty Norse god has never before appeared so powerful and dominating, bringing to life the current version of Thor. The warrior god stands in the midst of battle, swinging the hammer Mjollnir against the foes of Asgard. Thor's armor is intricately sculpted over his powerful physique, while his great cloak billows out behind him. The resplendent colors of the god's outfit shine, with the red and blue offset by the gleaming silver of his armor. The hero's intense expression and dynamic pose clearly shows his power and battle prowess! Sculpted by Shinya Akao, Thor towers over his enemies at approximately 12 inches tall (1/6th scale). The mighty Avenger stands upon a deluxe motif base of rocky stone adorned with the god's symbol. This base not only looks great on its own, but it will also match those on the other Avengers Reborn Fine Art Statues! Thor is constructed of high-quality cold cast porcelain and is a limited, numbered edition.
