    yes, those are both hard to find.   I've seen about 3 copies of the Action 718 and the TEC 690 with sticker.   RockMyAmadeus raises a good point about the stickers being easy to fake, but I've seen several copies of the stickers now and I think the original sticker would be hard to reproduce exactly the same each time.   Makes me wonder if CGC would ever go to the extremity of trying to verify validity of stickers... I sincerely doubt it since there's only about 3 collectors out there who care to chase them down.

    I have myself pulled a Superman 104 stickered DCU variant out of a sealed Superman Greatest Foes 6-pack once.  The sticker was not visible from the outside of the package, so I can't explain why they felt the need to put a sticker on that issue.

     

    are these DC universe logo Variants worth more then the normal issues ?  I had ignored these,  but a friend told me some are going much higher than guide

    just my opinion:

    1.   I would not grade the TEC 690.  I only know of two people who try to get these stickered copies, and both of us have those.   I would instead put it up for auction on ebay and see what happens.

    2.   Same thing on the Action 718.  Even though uncommon, you never know what you will get for these when they go up for auction.  Most of the people who would drive the price up on this variant already have it.   So if there's no competition, it might not even sell for $10.   I would instead take good photos, and put it up for auction with minimum price of $20.   If no bites, hang onto it.   Eventually someone else will get the DCU variant bug and will be willing to pay at least $20 (if not more) because he won't be able to find it after a year or two of looking, especially in that condition.
