HELPING ALL YOU COLLECTORS OUT THERE
(by Tim "TWO-FACE" Leighton)
I know that there are many people out there that collect Batman OR Superman items -
like myself. I only started a year ago and, believe me, finding some of these items (like
action figures) that were released a couple years ago is pretty tough! So, I decided to
start up a little section in the newsletter to help out our fellow Bat-fans. I can only
personally guarantee that my entries are 100% true, for I saw these items with my own
eyes. So we're working on the honour system here. Sound fair?
Well, if this section proves to not be a help for anyone, I'll just abandon it. But I
thought I should give it a try. If anyone has any items they'd like to post in this
section, feel free to do so - just give a brief description, name, e-mail address. Thank
you!
Well, here we go! I hope this helps out someone out there!
1. LOOKING FOR SUPERGIRL? Editor Tim "TWO-FACE" Leighton (that's me!) has
found three Supergirl action figures (animated style) in store on his travels through his
hometown of Vancouver, Canada - but he doesn't want 'em. Does anyone? Or are these figures
not as rare as people have said? Also released with this Supergirl figure was a Metallo
figure - but I didn't see him there. E-mail me at juno@direct.ca
if interested.
2. LOOKING FOR NIGHTWING? Editor Tim "TWO-FACE" Leighton (it's me again) has
one extra "CRIME-SOLVING NIGHTWING" that he's willing to get rid of. Still in a
mint package, this is the only animated Nightwing figure that is NOT a shoddy re-paint -
it actually has the same colouring as Nightwing on the show. I was gonna give it to my
brother, but alas, he already has one. E-mail me at juno@direct.ca
if interested.
