It's the Man of Steel loved by a generation of film-goers -- as sculpted by the talented Karen Palinko. One of the most admirable depictions of Superman is now available as a commemorative statue exclusively from DC Direct. In the likeness of real-life hero, Christopher Reeve, this statue strikes an iconic pose from the classic 1978 feature film Superman – the movie that made the world believe "a man could fly" and turned the actor into a major movie star and a household name.   Standing atop an S-shield base, the Christopher Reeve as Superman Statue is a limited-edition, hand-painted, cold-cast porcelain statue measuring approximately 12.50" tall x 5.5" wide x 3.75" deep. (The base measures approximately .75" high x 6.5" diameter.) This piece is being manufactured to order. Look for it at comic and specialty sometime around May 27, 2009. The MSRP on this is $195. Serious Superman fans and admirers of Christopher Reeves' immortal portrayal won't balk. |
