Yeah.. I was debating on what all to drop on here. There have to be literally thousands of items they made for the Doomsday Death of Superman / Return / Reign. From the watches, figures, statues, bookends, games, audio books, cards, clothes, posters, promo items( pins,buttons,ads) then all the in store displays, etc. There is way too much to pictures and show it all. 

More!!!!

I pulled this guy myself back in ‘94. I came home from school and found a surprise from me dear old momsey, several packs of Return of Superman cards.

I would keep an eye out on these. The very first print had some errors where the backs were swapped on two of them. They must have realized as most are not those errors and the uncut sheets both un-numbered and the Warner brothers Numbered versions did not contain this error.

I have a sealed factory set with the binder and special silver card. I was thinking the other day how it would be nice to find another one on eBay to open and actually use the binder, but they are not cheap. 

True, but if you just keep watching you can find them for about $30... The issue is size and shipping..

Boy, are you nuts! Got it bad, huh?

I guess you could say that, but funny enough my collection actually runs the gambit. This thread is about the death of superman, but I easily have more items that are not death of superman related.

Here’s a few I haven’t seen here yet...

Uncut sheet I found not too long ago.

Finally, I was overseas when these were inserted in Sams Club and I believe Walmart boxes instead of the silver ones. I sent Skybox a letter explaining my situation and they sent me these for free.

That’s awesome that Skybox hooked you up! I also had that ‘94 Doomsday promo card back in the day but misplaced it over the years.

I wonder how sturdy the binder is, they tend to split at the seams over use and time.

I don’t actually use it to hold anything but it is on my shelf and is fine. No cracks or anything.  Obviously can’t speak for how any seller may have taken care of theirs though!

Like the uncut doomsday sheets of uncut sheets.

I knew I hadn't uploaded all of the dc sets. Yes the Forged in gold cards were one to a box. Which had a sticker that stated it.20201109_180609.jpg.fc9891b33e3ba56fde25d3fb6234a668.jpg

They also had a Diamond Distributor Box that had the. Blue Skydisc.20201109_181846.jpg.1fcba4f5e006ac8d1e4b0d4a64f5b019.jpg20201109_181904.jpg.2f30356643c5fab27d9b846ec371cdc4.jpg

This set contains several Doomsday cards and promos.  Starting it off with one you shared the Forged in Gold one per marked box inserts20181218_104331.thumb.jpg.04b2ddb2215a4d51270443ff3dc2f4e0.jpg

The the Forged in Silver which there are two versions.  One is the Prototype Set which supposedly was limited to 1,500 sets. ( says Prototype on back of card) 20181218_104322.thumb.jpg.b918e95ee83287e9a9c0b66d5a679f98.jpg

Then the standard insert set that was the same front as the Prototype set20181218_104318.thumb.jpg.bb8e7b706f6e9d1b347d1c848559a626.jpg

There is also two Promos Sp1 and the SW-1 Superman Kissing Wonder Woman Promo as well as the Skydisc insert.20181218_104354.thumb.jpg.d093c5fcf0804e644cf043ed821ff33f.jpg

The skydisc printing has issues and produced a few variations one Green, one Blue Green , and one referred to as a blank( Black) The graded card 2.5 is an error that has a Skydisc back.20170702_011740.thumb.jpg.66b2c60828935cdb0e19a5bbad17706e.jpg

at the Diamond Fall Flings Meeting/ Convention these were used as promotions

Now on to the DC Master Series. 

These Blue Framed Promos came from Skybox International Convention and the unframed were randomly given away to promote.

 

20170619_145338.thumb.jpg.a431a8e370359651602b7f9b08232d32.jpg20170619_145358.thumb.jpg.9ec45a75365646546cb83dad1060ae27.jpg

other promotional cello packs and cards for this set, bloodlines ,death and return of superman! 20181231_191954.thumb.jpg.9a7d5f40fa6cd73a427f3597c05ab925.jpg20181231_191947.thumb.jpg.d6c30897b12eb0e843138c38fbd7cbaf.jpg20181231_192041.thumb.jpg.6f70a8e2bd4e28fb0e6d3a77999b5370.jpg20181231_192052.thumb.jpg.945c4f19e971d836930ccc1ed5875cde.jpg

On the inserts I noticed you posted two of the doomsday dual sided inserts which is correct as the very first printing of these there was an error where the DS3 insert the S was printed backwards making it look like D23 which they corrected so both versions were circulated. 

20170701_205705.thumb.jpg.7d4c0b7dd5cb429464b4f2f26f885dda.jpg

you also showed the doomsday promo, but for this set there 4 versions.  There is the P1, C1,D1,H1. Each from different distributors. 20181231_194305.thumb.jpg.9df59a45a5b631195313e9b12c78cb5f.jpg20181231_194317.thumb.jpg.5fdf0da5d044f3055664c7f397b4374f.jpg

20181231_232251.thumb.jpg.55621f76ab6adc8f47976415900fa1aa.jpg20181231_232302.thumb.jpg.39c8c55b59f012133157cd8cd7f86046.jpg

the 6 card uncut sheets you referring to as box topper,  was actually rumored to be Case toppers, but never opened a case to confirm. I do know these were also distributed as promos ( they originally printed extra sheets that the full set sets were cut into 6 card promos to distribute) 20170709_194206.thumb.jpg.4da24a0a612eb8e8c5fee2f510dbbc13.jpg20170709_194225.thumb.jpg.629783b79bad5f5db34de0a32c946fcc.jpg20170709_194238.thumb.jpg.172ffbb6bca3c0dfaae4d3618ecb4d49.jpg20170709_194305.thumb.jpg.ba1daddb5fb8507a45340dd74bd2b44d.jpg20170709_194146.thumb.jpg.c2ed754cc0197afc7139680bb39ffc76.jpg

( I will save posting them all, you can get a full set of the 6 card promos) Like the Superman Returns set Warner Brothers Stores also got 250 of these framed and limited for sale.20201109_190256.thumb.jpg.ce1afd4dbe0a8ac5f672f3d8133bc85e.jpg20201109_190325.thumb.jpg.8165b34202219d7e3e4e314281abbcde.jpg

the actual box topper is the SP1-SP4 set , but the another sheet that was rumored never to be released uncut was the regular foil version of the box topper card numbered F1-F4 here are both.20170619_130026.thumb.jpg.f9e167d97c13e46a004af07af56ae948.jpg20170619_130042.thumb.jpg.c6855e906e503e946d53347fdfeb4897.jpg

the specially marked boxes for the S1-S4 box toppers sheet20170729_041055.thumb.jpg.e5c038b28ea18026299ca59ea5c65b0d.jpg

The sell sheet for this set20181231_232205.thumb.jpg.717b4cee65cb5507641433e83da2a5db.jpg

The skydisc in this set had a redemption card inserted into boxes that you had to mail away for the skydisc seen in my above picture of the inserts when you did Skybox would send you back the card in one of those card board sleeves you would get stickers or temp tattoos out of the quarter machines,  but it contained these two cards with the skydisc. 20181231_192034.thumb.jpg.6f7bf37a86a2e6cd64cd882047d3ddd5.jpg20181231_192026.thumb.jpg.d20086ce44d8c4fa96be6bf21c683ab4.jpg20181205_233459.thumb.jpg.3c38a8ef5a23bc6d13697cf28bf361d2.jpg20181206_000320.thumb.jpg.be4eb6990664d01cfebb735a44629056.jpg

and finally for this set the uncut sheet of dual sided spectra card inserts.20170619_155130.thumb.jpg.859a003618b4d9d531f5b6a46fad0af7.jpg

I will also add that the DC Master Series also had a cross promotion with Pepsi in Mexico and did the entire DC Master Series Base Set and a slightly different Foil Insert Set.IMG_20190318_011922223.thumb.jpg.01ef3f527948141ca6aa7476458762ce.jpgIMG_20190318_011935635.thumb.jpg.809d05f7fcb1db6c4518cf9ba19d793b.jpg
