        I think this is one of John Bonavita's books but I've never seen a good scan of it, terrific.

          Awesome! I loved Chris Reeves as Superman.

            LOL! I like the way the guy posed the 12" figs for that pic.
            What's up with Jor-El??

              Great pic! Wow, the 3 other 12" figures were really short packed. I wonder if they had similar case allotments in the US?

                I thought Mego was not allowed to associate their Superman line with the movie ?

                Or was this done by a store ?

                  Looks like it was done by the company that handled these for the German market.

                    Pretty dumb since the sculpts are based on the actors. It still ticks me off they have Jor-El with white hair. Don't even get me started on Krypton the ice planet or kal-Els rocketship.
                    Is that why they have the comics uniforms instaed of the movie outfits?

                      Wow...beautiful.

                      I saved the image to my computer...I'm going to resize, print, and frame it.

                      Thanks!

                              Yeah, that's why. Mego's license was with DC not with the movie maker.
