    The Earth will cease to exist as well when the sun goes supernova.

    The sky is just atmosphere...that will go too.

        If stored properly they will defiantly last over 100 years.I have some joes that are over 40 years old ,not stored perfectly and they're still in great shape.

          These plastics were meant to have a life of about 50 years.
          As we get closer to that time, you will see more and more
          cracking and breaking at the joints. The plastic will get
          brittle.

          The vinyl heads may last longer or they too will harden and
          crack.

          The clothes will last to our grandkids, so replacing the body
          may give another 50 years to Superman.
