CLASSIC COMIC CHARACTERS #39: BUCK ROGERS STATUE
Buck Rogers, a hero whose name came to define a genre, first appeared in an original story entitled "Armageddon--2419," written by Philip Francis Nowlan. The main character was a pursuit pilot, who in an unlikely turn of events stepped into a cloud of radioactive gas inside an abandoned mine and disappeared into 500 years of suspended animation. When he emerged, Anthony -- soon to be "Buck" -- Rogers, found himself in a land of rocket pistols, hovercrafts, paralysis rays, and electo-hypno mentalaphones. Artist Dick Calkins made the strip rich with sidebar features, designing scores of odd aliens, sleek rayguns, and streamlined rocketships. Collector's note: this piece is limited to only 600 numbered copies.
CLASSIC COMIC CHARACTERS #40: WILMA DEERING STATUE
When Buck Rogers found himself in the year 2419 A.D., and joined the resistance he discovered a beautiful fellow freedom fighter, Wilma Deering. Once described as "a flapper with a ray gun," Wilma was a sprightly combination of beauty and brains. While Wilma was steady and competent, she also had a sense of humor. Her boyfriend Buck inspired her wild streak, and her costumes typified the space-babe look that was seen later in pop culture from Flash Gordon to Star Wars. Collector's note: this piece is limited to only 600 numbered copies.

CONDITION
These mini statues were displayed briefly behind glass out of sun light. They were then stored away in a warehouse for almost 15 years. Due to changes in temperature, some slight rust spotting has appeared on the tin containers ( outside and/or inside, please view photos) which should be an easy removal. 
This has in no way had any effect on the statues and they are literally Like New condition.
