I started collecting comic books late, and it didn't last very long, but one of my favorite titles was Ostrander and Mandrake's The Spectre. I've been looking for this statue for a while, since it is based on Tom Mandrake's art, but the $195 list price and >$100 selling price kept me away.

Thanks to a broken finger and ebay I was able to get this thing for $51! (the finger was easily repaired with Zap-a-gap).
