Did anyone here get the set of Superboy with Krypto and Supergirl with Streaky figures that came with a billboard that on one one side reads Welcome To Smallville and on the other something about Midvale or the Stanhope Orphanage? That's the toy I'm most resisting the urge to get. I know it likely would just be another decoration, not be as 'fun' as my inner child would hope, and if there were similar other things produced I could start into collecting... that awful condition some of us are severely prone to!

Gak! Looks like it'd cost me around $100 or so to get those figures with wee billboard now anyway. I guess the odds of someone having actually opened one and be selling them slightly used for less is not going to happen. :^(

I'd suggest keeping a watch on that item.  The last one sold for $34 on bids and of the sold listings, it looks like it can be had for $50 or less if one is patient.  Good luck.

For some reason "More powerful than a locomotive" comes to mind with that last image...

Gamera was my brother and I's favorite "monster" but would prefer the classic look.

I get tempted to breaking my statue moratorium whenever I see Harryhausen stuff like that!

I read that the original Gamera was one of Jack Kirby's favorite things to see on tv. :^)

I caught some of those shows I hadn't seen in ages on 'Comet', we used to love the turtle with rockets ourselves!

I did see a Supergirl and a Streaky from that Silver Age set separately listed, but they still want way too much for them, and no billboard. Sometimes you just miss the boat, I have enough toys as it is really anyway. I'd be perfect for a not mint or no box budget offering, yet mint in box will probably always far outnumber any other state.
