  1. As the title says. Sunday night blowout.  Amazing Spiderman 51 CGC 4.5 with off-white to white pages.  2nd appearance of the Kingpin and his first cover appearance.  Last three sales were between $120-$129 plus shipping.  How about $90 shipped in the U.S.

    Love the watercolors.

    And totally not trying to be a jerk, but has anyone told you that you have more than a passing resemblance to the "My Name is Earl" guy?

    Yes, I have heard that before and definitely not offended - I was a big fan of My Name is Earl!

    Oh wow, that's amazing! I love the documentation that goes along with them as well, a real piece of history. Lovely stuff.

    Do you know what happened to his massive collection of painted miniatures? I'd love to get ahold of something like that.

    I saw a few of Cushing's painted soldiers go for sale at the auction of Joyce Broughton's belongings after she passed.  The majority of Cushing's soldiers (as well as his theatre sets) were given to friends in his will when passed. Some have been sold off again and I think Del Toro owns some of his theatre sets.

    These guys arrived a couple of days ago. I'd had my eyes on them for a minute, and when they were offered on B1G1 50% off, I had to pull the trigger. They were originally about $530 a pop, so for around $800 shipped, I thought it was likely as good as I was going to do on them.

    The portraits are stunning, and the soft goods are terrific. The tailoring, the fit, and the materials, all top notch. Oddly, the hands and heads were a real pain to pop into place, due to how tight the cuffs and collars were on the shirts. They definitely didn't just slide into place with the ease shown in the Sideshow videos! But at the end of the day, it could have been much worse. They look fantastic together, and I'm very glad I finally grabbed them.

    The only downside was that while the Cushing shipped in a typical Sideshow brown shipper, Lee was instead shoved diagonally into a huge cube cardboard box without a proper shipper, and zero protection. The art box has some ugly punctures on it. I guess it's not the end of the world, as the boxes will just be put up in the rafters in the garage, unseen for years, but it was still an odd experience. The boxes really are fantastic, with great artwork on the sides highlighted by red foil embossing. I wish I had room to display statues AND boxes, but I barely have room for the statues as it is!

    All in all, I'm delighted with them. I'm sure @Cushing Fan has ten of them!

    Gorgeous figures and in my humble opinion the best likeness I've seen on Cushing and Lee figures. I'll actually be getting these soon but at the moment have been saving up for some original artwork by Peter Cushing.

    One of the great Marvel covers by my favorite Hulk artist.

    Good luck with the sale!

    Marie Severin is a severely underrated artist. One of my favorite Silver Surfer/Hulk covers as well.
