dc direct supergirl statue
went into my LCS today and noticed a few DC direct supergirl statue based on Michael Turner. I know this has been out for a while but I noticed something different on the numbering. Instead of the usual #/2500, they were numbered R#/168 / 2500. Anybody have any info why these batch could be numbered differently? Not sure what 'R' stands for..

could be.. I myself went to 2 of them before found one that was undamaged. It's more fragile than most statues.. I've even seen people break the base trying to put that statue in place. I didn't even bother getting it signed by Michael Turner when he was in town a con for fear I might break it. If 'R' does stand for repaired, it's the first time I've seen this on any statue.

I'm sure if you seen it on ebay people would pay more for it. Are you thinking of buying it. Pretty cool sculpt.

I already have this actually. I thought it might be another version (like platinum Grace vs original) that I wasn't aware. But then again it's DC direct, they don't normally do variants on statues..

I've got both DC SUpergirl statues and actually prefer the Turner designed one.

It means replaced..there were a huge amount of damaged ones and to keep the integrity of the numbering when one is damaged they replace it with an extra stat..R means replaced..=)..at least thats what i think.=)
