Howdy folks! :D

Many here know that I've searched for this statue for quite a while,
coming close many times, only to be disheartened when things fall through.

Well, no more! I give you my brand new, perfect condition, #360 of 600
with COA signed by Mr. Clayburn Moore, Gemstone Edition PITT STATUE:

I really like this statue a LOT. The chains gave me fits for a bit, but I
finally got them in place, without gluing anything to anything. I'm not
going to glue this statue together as the instructions show, as I want
to keep it 100% mint perfect.

I owe this entirely to Comicboy, who gave me the lead enabling me to
find this item where it had been safely kept unopened and in the original
box since it was first released in 1995/96. I am the first one to remove
the four separate statue pieces from their plastic protective bags.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE HELP AND INFO COMICBOY!

JS :D

Looks good. I like the chains around the wrist and chest. How much did it cost you? I always see it go off on Ebay for around $220 to $275.

Very cool JS!! Glad I could help. Funny thing is I watched that sit there for years on the shelf. The box would catch the corner of my eye every once in awhile but he, like most shops, has stacks of other things around it catching my eye. I just never gave it a look because I had no interest in the character. This was the second one I tried to get to you. The first one was a guy I know but he sold it. Then I remembered this guy and knew it would still be sitting there. Like I said, there's really no market for this stuff here. I hope he gave you a decent deal, he's kinda firm on his prices, but it was just sitting there. He probably had no idea what it was at first you were talking about. :laugh: Gil and Steve are pretty good guys though. They just tend to stay out of the statue game unless somebody orders something specific. It's a more sports oriented shop with comics and comic related merch being maybe ΒΌ of the place. I'll have to stop in, I gotta ton of packing peanuts I should take over there. That's great though man, I'm glad you got it and it lives up to your expectations. And a gemstone to boot! :thumbs2:

A very good deal it was indeed! Half the price of this one:
