Gwenpool - Breaking the Fourth Wall Statue by Good Smile Company

Man, that is really tempting.

Beautifully done!

Are we sure this is legal? She looks like an underage anime girl. Think about the fictional children!

I literally just dropped $200 on the Sen-Ti-Nel Gwenpool statue this weekend (from Bluefin/Namco's website), and now I'll HAVE to get this too, as I'm basically a whore for anything Gurihiru/Gwenpool-related. Luckily this one won't be out for at least a year, so my wallet has time to prepare itself.

In the comics she's a high school grad, so yeah, she's as legal as pencils and ink can get.

Oh damn, that Sen Ti Nel jawn looks proper too. Decisions...

I guess it all comes down to "How big of a Gwenpool fan are you?"

Yeahhhhhh... considering she hasn’t had a book in 2 years it’s kinda hard to justify hundreds of merch... but damn! I feel like I need much more than her ML figure.

Her first series written by Christopher Hastings will always be one of my favorite comic book runs ever, so I can kinda justify the expenditure on my part.

But if you're looking for at least one more Gwenpool item, I would suggest the Mafex figure. I have it (more than one, actually), it's great, and it can still be had for about $100 on ebay (from both Japan and US sellers).

Aye their Gurihuru figs are off the chain. I’m definitely gonna bite on Gwen eventually and maybe Evil GP as well.

Got Evil GP too. In fact, here's my current GP collection (yes, it needs a dusting, lol):

Ha! Wow you went all in huh? Nice GP collection. Final confirmation I need those Mafex jawns.

Gonna steal that Madcap recipe off ya too.

By all means, my friend! If it helps, here's a better shot and the recipe:

• Madcap head & hat (duh)
• Batroc the Leaper body
• Baron Zemo hands/gloves/boots
• Taskmaster holster & belt
• Ego cape

I'll grab a Morph for the boots and gloves cuz Zemo runs like fiddy-sixty bucks nowadays. I'll have to grab a couple Egos up just for some of those capes, they'll come in handy. Gracias my good man!

Oh yeah, Morph is a great (and much cheaper) option. Looks like a good color match. The only problem with Morph is that he doesn't have trigger-finger hands, though.

And they're practically giving Egos away on ebay.

Truuuuue about the hand. Hand accuracy drives me nuts. I might chop up a Forge for Reaver parts and steal his bits.

NICE collection!

I also broke down and got the Evil Gwenpool when HLJ put her on sale. I was expecting that she'd be a repaint of Gwenpool, but turned out she's a completely new figure! I also used the Gwenpool head with the longer hair on Evil Gwenpool, I just love the Gurihiru art style especially the way he draws Gwenpool, since Evil Gwenpool is supposed to be the adult version of Gwenpool, it fits.

Thanks! In an effort to clean, de-clutter, and free up space for the incoming statue (which according to FedEx will be arriving by Friday), I re-arranged the shelf my GP collection is on. I'll take another pic when the statue has been added, but for now:

You mean she. Or, actually, they, since there's two of them and they're collectively known as Gurihiru. The woman on the left draws, and the woman on the right colors. I know, these Japanese people and their wacky pseudonyms.

Ah! I didn't know that! Learn something new everyday.

The Sen-Ti-Nel Gwenpool statue looks really good too! Like I said, any toy/statue that captures the Gurihiru art style, like the Good Smile and Sen-Ti-Nel statues, are absolute gems. I actually never bought the Hasbro Gwenpool, because it's not Gurihiru.

Yeah, I was torn, but ultimately I got two of the Hasbro ones just to go with my Legends collection. I mean, they tried...they even sculpted a penguin backpack/sword sheaths and a belt with a cell phone holster, lol.

Meanwhile, there were two Gamestop-exclusive Gwenpool statues that were pretty hideous. Gwen just does not work as well when she's depicted in a relatively standard art style or (even worse) sexed-up with big ol' titties.

And I know what you mean by the Gurihiru style. Clearly Japanese anime in origin, but there are enough differences - and just a touch of western/Disney influence - that sets it apart. It's just such a clean, expressive, and appealing style that works so damn well and it's gotten me to read books they've drawn even if they were about characters I wasn't into.

Gurihiru are one of the reasons I'm glad there's more female artists in comics these days. I mean, can you imagine Gwenpool drawn by, say, Rob Fucking Liefeld?

*EDIT* I think that's actually a parody of a Liefeld drawing (Lolfeld, missed that), but it's close enough that I thought it was actually his. But I could 100% see him drawing a woman exactly like that, and that's all that matters.

Lmao. Yep, thems are garbage.

I feel the same way about ML... at least they tried with their Miley Cyrus figure.

Parody or not, no one deserves to be drawn by Liefeld. Poor Snake Eyes.

FedEx delivered her today. Totally, 100% worth it.

P.S. - The comic book images on the base are stickers that you have to apply yourself, and it is a pain the ass. For a statue at this price point, the images should just be printed on there. But after some frustration, I got them on well enough. Annoying, but the statue still is completely rad nonetheless. But for those who are curious, the statue is not connected to the base and can be displayed by itself.

So, if you're at all interested, I say go for it.

Holy shit, I fucking love Gwenpool with all my heart. Well, at least the Hastings/Gurihiru version, anyway.
