Description
This comprehensive collection features vintage DC Comics-themed action figures and accessories produced during the mid-to-late 1980s. The lot primarily includes figures from the Toy Biz DC Comics Super Heroes line and the Kenner Super Powers Collection. Featured Toy Biz figures include Lex Luthor (Item No. 4408) with button-activated Power-Punch, The Riddler (Item No. 4411) including pre-printed riddles, Mr. Freeze (Item No. 4412) with color-changing plastic, and two variations of The Flash—one featuring a Turbo Platform and the other with accelerated running arm movement. The collection also includes a Kenner Super Powers Batman figure and several Nasta-branded accessories, including Wonder Woman sunglasses (Item No. 14995) and two Batman-themed flashlights (Item No. 80535). Figures are constructed of molded plastic and vinyl. Manufacturing marks indicate production in China, Hong Kong, and Macau, with copyright dates ranging from 1984 to 1989. Average card dimensions are 10 x 8.5 inches.
Condition: Items are mostly in their original blister packs and cardboard backing cards. The collection shows varying degrees of shelf wear, including edge creasing and corner blunting. Significant surface paper loss is present on several Toy Biz card fronts where adhesive was removed. The Kenner Batman figure is present with its original backing card, though the plastic blister has become detached. Some plastic blisters exhibit age-related yellowing or minor denting. All components appear original and figures remain in unplayed condition.
