My Statue Collection!

[Vectorshot]

I will end up doing multiple post in this thread for my statues, since I want to do some more detailed photos of them and give an explanation on each one. Things like MSRP, what I paid, where I got it from,why I got it and what series, game or comic the character(s) are from. I've not gotten as many statues as I want, but I will be getting many more, I assure you.

-FEATURED STATUE-

DC Comics Bombshells Catwoman

The MSRP of this statue is $124.99. I was going to get it from my local comic shop, but they sold it. I ended up buying it online at Big Bad Toy Store. They sell the statue on their site for $99.99+S&H and I believe I was taxed on it, so I ended up not saving a whole lot of money, which for me was fine because I REALLY wanted this statue. This isn't my first Bombshells series statue, and it won't be my last.

The Bombshells statues are based on comic variant covers that DC did featuring comic heroines depicted as 1940's, 50's and 60's Bombshells. They featured pretty much all of their popular heroines as Bombshells, but a few stood out from the rest. Catwoman was one of those for me, though sadly I was not able to get her Bombshell cover. I loved Bombshell art even before DC decided to do variants using their characters, so this was a huge treat for me. The event was so successful that DC has since made tons of merchandise featuring their Bombshells. Stuff like wallets, calendars, blankets, classes and, you guessed it, statues. The statues come in a limited run of 5200 and they are numbered. They have done reprints of the more popular statues with the same limit of 5200, with many more new statues coming out this year.

If you don't know who Catwoman is, she is a character primarily featured in Batman comics, cartoons and movies, but she also has her own comic series. She hovers between villain and hero, but she's mostly a cat burglar. Hence the moniker Catwoman, but her real name is Selina Kyle. She often acts as a love interest for Batman and has been one of the most popular and successful female characters from the Batman franchise.
