Superman Through the Ages! Forum

My girlfriend and I have been dating for nearly four years, and she's finally ready to commit...to buying me Superman stuff for Christmas!  :D

She said she'd give me $100 toward a Superman item. Did I invest my money well? You decide!

Yes, $78.77! The statue (which is a foot tall) retails for $195.00

Here's a quote from Superman Superstore:

"Supergirl's first appearance in comics is reproduced in a fully-painted cold-cast porcelain statue based on the cover to the May 1959 Action Comics #252, depicting the Maid of Steel emerging from a rocket to the surprise of Superman. This statue is HUGE, measuring 14.5" wide by 8.75" deep by 12" tall. This statue is limited to 2000 pieces and comes with a certificate of authenticity from DC Direct.

"This awesome recreation of the classic CURT SWAN and AL PLASTINO cover of ACTION COMINCS #252 is sculpted by TIM BRUCKNER in COLD-CAST PORCELAIN! It measures at 14.5 inches wide x 12 inches high x 8.75 inches deep! It's MASSIVELY cool! DC DIRECT spared nothing when making this statue! don't miss out and get this one today! This item was limited to 2000 and DC Direct has already sold out! "

That 's my personal favorite statue DC ever released.

Gangbuster, good buy!  I'd be careful of spending too much time with your new purchase, though, in case your girlfriend gets jealous and forgets about her commitment next year! :D

I am working on my own Supergirl-related present to myself for Xmas.  More details soon.
