Impressive collection from the WB Store JB, as I purchased most of those items also. If I wasn't buying Maquette's I also was buying prints from there. I'll try to get around to posting and sharing pics of them this afternoon.

It's all AOL's fault.
The Warner Bros stores weren't doing that bad, from what I was told...
How I miss them so!
sob...

Here's a few of the prints I wanted to share with the forum that were bought at the Warner Bros Store. I lucked out when Kevin Conroy ( Voice of Batman in all of Bruce Timm's animated Batman and Justice League) was at the store and signed my Batman Family and Justice League prints.

It was all about arrogance. The first thing AOL did when it bought
TimeWarner was shut down the stores and Warner Books. One shops and
reads online, after all.
'em!

Question for Mr. Byrne and everyone else--
What do you consider the "crowl jewel" of your figure/statue collection?

I picked up the large Bowen Galatcus statue off ebay (great statue!!!), but when I put it on its base, it did not sit flat and wobbled slightly.
Did anyone else have this problem, and if so, did you do anything to "fix" the statue? Thanks and best...

The life-sized GORT, from "The Day the Earth Stood Still", that stands in
my center hallway, here seen looming over visitor and JBF alumni Royd
Burgoyne…
Extremely close second, Robbie, here putting the moves on Royd. . .

Wow, those are gigantic! How tall is that man?
If those robots actually worked, what would you do with them?

While Royd is not, himself, of giant stature, GORT stands fully eight feet tall.
And as I often say when showing him to people, you really have no sense of
how tall an eight foot tall robot is until you're standing in front of one.
