Where can I find a good quality, life-size statue of Superman for less than $1K? - General

I couldn't find a recent enough thread for this, so here goes: It's been on my Christmas wishlist for quite a few years, but at the prices I've seen, no one I know of can afford one, and I want it in the corner of my room. Anyone know where I can find one for a more affordable price ($1k or cheaper)? I'm mostly looking for Christopher Reeve's version, but Henry Cavill will do if you can't find one.

I cant help you with your endeavour, but mind if I ask the following: Why?

A boy has the right to dream.

@Halite: Because I cleaned my room, and I've had an empty spot that's just wide enough to fit one, between my dresser and bookshelf. I've kept that space empty ever since.

If you promise to let it fly loose by hanging some big clear helium balloons from it with strong fishing line like this, I'll tell you where to get one https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/132/fcd02cd2-3563-4873-a89d-e2368bf8a8a3/thuperman.png you also have to yell "It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's Superman!" after he takes off

Ever heard of a fetish?

It's not a fetish. I just want to put it in my room to make it look better (my room looks pretty childish at the moment).

That sounds like a reasonable explanation, I can't imagine anything better at making a room look more mature than a life size Superman lurking in the corner.

you thought there would be other threads on this subject, huh?

Nothing says “bone-done crib” like Superman watching

I'd recommend a race car bed.

Found Deadpool, Batman, and Harley Quinn here, they look pretty decent given they are for less than $1k. Good luck finding a Superman though, even the real shitty ones from alibaba start at $1500

You take a girl back to your room and Superman slaps her ass, what do you do?

Probably freak out cause she likely exploded.

Are you Jerry Seinfeld?

One night you're going to wake up in the middle of the night and notice a shadowy figure standing in your room and you're going to forget you put this thing in that spot.

Honestly for 1k you are gonna struggle to find something "Good" If you are serious I would suggest bookmarking the junkyard over at the RPF and check it every few days or so to see if someone puts one up for sale. I see life size replicas pop up on there all the time. Junkyard | RPF Costume and Prop Maker Community

It really bothers me that this doesn't rhyme.

english is an amazing language

Honestly, check your local big franchise theaters or something. They usually have a lot of old movie promotional material in the back somewhere without any idea on how to get rid of it and can sell it to you on the cheap if you ask. I've gotten a few movie posters and some cardboard from local movie theater that way. There were statues for BvS and Justice league iirc. Chances are if you find one it might just fall apart soon, but at least you will have it for a bit as a placeholder.

I just realized I said "bone-done" and not "bone-down". Still wtf english language, bone and done don't rhyme and words like "drum" aren't spelled with a "b" at the end like "crumb"

Could you perhaps post a picture of your room? I'm just kinda interested in what you find childish about it.
