Affiliate Link – Marvel Classic Character Spider-Man Statue
This is pretty bizarre. Dark Horse is releasing statues for Marvel characters? I guess someone at Marvel decided it wasn’t worth their time to release statues, but it still strikes me as unusual that they would grant a license to a competing comic book publisher. Still, I’m gonna keep an eye on things, because Dark Horse is taking a different route with this Marvel Classic Character Spider-Man Statue*; going with the sixties design will certainly help set them apart from all of the other companies that are releasing Marvel statues. (And there are a lot of different Marvel statue manufacturers out there.)
The first in the Marvel Classic Character series is none other than everyone’s favorite wall-crawler: Spider-Man! A limited edition of just 2,000 pieces worldwide, this Spider-Man Statue stands approximately 5 1/2-inches tall and comes packaged with a pin-back button and character booklet in a full-color tin. Begin (or add to) your collection with the amazing Spider-Man!
The 1960s brought a cultural upheaval in music and art, with a host of new icons entering the scene: The Beatles, Andy Warhol, and of course, Marvel Comics, led by a host of characters that redefined modern comic books. Now, these characters appear just as they did then, in a new line of collectible statues from Dark Horse Deluxe!
