This marvelous custom, by Blake Bowker ("The Composer"), landed late last week. It depicts "The Prophet of Hate," Kane, in his 2011 return attire. The mask has been masterfully sculpted, showing an impressive amount of detail and is complete with accurate straps (including painted rivets). The rest of Kane's attire has also been beautifully recreated with the woven red and black piping being sculpted to the figure. The flame pattern on Kane's right leg is authentic in that it is the correct shape and it encompasses, not only the colors red and yellow, but also orange. This wonderful custom is complimented by a professional Certificate of Authenticity, issued by Mr. Bowker himself. Blake, I don't know what to say, man. I'm totally blown away!!! For those considering ordering a custom from Blake, do not hesitate. Nothing but top shelf quality and service from Mr. Bowker. I, for one, could not be more satisfied. Blake's shots:     A few of my own:       Thanks again, Blake! |

Speechless. It's been an honor, truly, it has!
Thank you for the praise. I could not have asked for a better collector—for a better fan. You rock.
Thank you, again!
Expect more...

Is the custom playable?... My figures are meant for display; however, may survive gentle play. |

i honestly think this is better than what mattel will give us. Well yeah, it's a one of a kind figure, with a lot of care and attention given to it. It isn't mass produced. That said, this figure is stunning, nothing short of one of the most impressive 12th scale things I've ever seen. That headsculpt, the paint... Jesus that's gnarly! |

Is the custom playable?... Honestly, the thought of Blake's work getting bashed around a toy wrestling ring makes me cringe. I don't know why anyone would want to run the risk of damaging it. My Kane is going in a display case and his C.O.A. is going in a nice frame...  |
