    Tonight's Guest Hero... George Reeves as Superman!!


    The crossover we all wanted as kids, but didn't know it couldn't happen. Superman visits Gotham to take on the combined forces of Lex Luthor and the Joker!! Head is Juanimal, emblems Lasermego, boots CTVT, costuming and paints by me.



    And my new folding batarang and holster for Batman...


    Holster is craft foam and the batarang is CTVT with added hinge.

          That's a very cool Supes, love the beefed up chest nice touch, and the cape
          really came out terrific. Nice addition to Batman's batarang pouch as well.

              Great looking figure t-bolt!!!
              That is definitely a couple figures I would have loved as a kid.

                Superman looks great Joe and I love the upgraded utility belt on Batman.

                The barrel chest and material on Superman look very 50s. the colors are spot on, too.

                  This is just too wonderful! Really love the attention to detail on Reeves.

                    Thanks, I was trying to find something close to what CTVT used on Batman and lucked out at Joanns.

                          A + on that padding, puts it over the top.

                              Thanks again, all. I had to do the padding, the figure just didn't look right without it.
