If you’re anything like me, you are very enamored of how pop culture has embraced the comics of my childhood. Where once such interests made you a social pariah, nowadays comics and nerd culture have gone mainstream. We have incredible movies, TV shows, comics and more, a mixed blessing for collectors, as it can be hard on your wallet. That said, I never turn down incredible collectables, and Bluefin has announced some really impressive stuff. In conjunction with Iron Studios, they are now opening pre-orders on superhero statues of greats from both Marvel and DC, including Wonder Woman, Drax and Robin. The first of these will be available for order in November with the rest in December. The price fits the detail, and ranges from $100+ to $200+. To see more details about these statues, read the official press release below!
