Anyone know of good Flash/Green Lantern statues from the past?

I've been looking for some good Flash or Green Lantern statues, but I don't really care for most of the stuff from DC Direct right now.

I have the Flash maquette from the animated series as well as a 1995 William Paquet Flash statue. I love the Flash vs. Gorilla Grodd statue, but I only like the part with the Flash. I don't want the Gorilla Grodd part. I'm just not a fan of fight scene statues.

As for the Green Lantern, I have the GL maquette from the Superman animated series, and I have the GL cover to cover statue. As much as I love the sculpting done on the Tim Bruckner GL vs Sinestro statue, I don't like fight scene statues, so that's a no go. I also like the sculpting on the William Paquet Hal Jordan statue where Hal is in his GL getup in a locker room holding the GL battery, except for the fact that Hal looks REALLY pissed off at the GL battery. His facial expression is just a bit too much for me.

Does anyone know of some good statues from the past that I might be interested in? Or does anyone know of a place that would have a complete list of past DC statues that I could just look through?

Thanks

Just the Flash/Grodd and GL Cover to Cover for me, those are excellent. I haven't seen any production statues besides those two that I like, but I bet there are some good kits in the sculpts section. nobody has really done them justice and they are well-loved characters.

This is the best GL statue to date, regardless of his face

The Hal and Flash busts are pretty good.

I hadn't seen that before.
I think your right. Everything looks good, until you look at the facial expression. It makes him look like he's pissed that his lantern isn't functioning correctly.

If I remember right, the design of the ring on this statue is incorrect. My lcs owner pointed this out to me when it came into his store.

This is currently my favorite GL piece. I have 2 of them and would recommend it to anyone. It's not BD scale, but I like DC's scale myself. Good hunting! Also Paquet did a Flash piece back in 1995 I believe. I'll see if I have a pic on my laptop. If not I'll have to take a photo of mine unless someone else here can post it.

Sweet Flash statue!

[QUOTE=Alex655321;2299453]Here are both of my Flash Statues from ARH.



This one is freaking amazing. I love ARH stuff but I never seem to get any of his best statues in time. I would love to get the Ultimate Batman and Superman statues, as well as this Flash. I don't suppose you know anywhere I could score one of these, do you?

That is seriously fantastic and it's exactly what I'm looking for.
