    The Original Golden Age Black Terror vs. Killer Robot

    Third Figurine in the Golden Age Comics Figurine Collection...



    Goldenagefigurines.com of La Jolla, California has just released The Original Golden Age Black Terror vs. Killer Robot, the third figurine in their Golden Age Comics Figurine Collection. Sculpted at 1/21 scale and standing 3.84" (9.74 cm) tall, this limited edition, hand painted resin collectible is inspired by the cover to Exciting Comics #45 (March 1946), drawn by the amazing Alex Schomburg (cover pictured below). It is scaled to complement the existing series of Marvel and DC superhero figurines produced by Eaglemoss of England.

    The Original Golden Age Black Terror vs. Killer Robot features a gold foil label, individual numbering, and comes in a white box with a color printed sleeve and a protective soft black foam interior. To avoid breakage in transit, the figures and base are packaged separately, requiring a small amount of superglue to assemble. It can be purchased directly from Goldenagefigurines.com, through eBay, or on Amazon. Tech savvy collectors can also purchase it with Bitcoin. Prices vary from $28.99 to $33.99 USD, depending on which outlet you purchase from. Only 175 produced, with less than 50 currently remaining in stock; there will be no second edition.

    For those unfamiliar with the character, The Black Terror first appeared in Exciting Comics #9 (January 1941) published by Nedor Comics. His alter ego was pharmacist Bob Benton, who formulated a chemical he called "formic ethers," giving him various superpowers, such as super strength, near invulnerability, and tremendous stamina. He used these powers to fight crime with his sidekick, Tim Roland, known as Kid Terror. The Black Terror arguably had the coolest costume of the Golden Age superheroes and was one of the publisher's most popular characters, surviving until 1949. We should note that the character portrayed in this sculpture is strictly the public domain version of The Black Terror and should not be confused with any later portrayals produced by publishers in more recent years.
