Great stuff!! I'm going there someday.

Think of this. The owner of that Superman collection is Jim Hambrick who has the worlds biggest Superman collection (obviously) has 4 copies of Action #1 and another huge warehouse full of Superman stuff he can't fit into the museum. What else this guy has is just crazy.

One thing tho about the 12" Burbank Toys Supes... where did the glassed and outfit come from? Someone added those later, no?

i'm pretty sure that the outfit is the six million dollar man adventure denim outfit. not sure about the glasses.
