I understand there were large figures of DC's big three SUPERMAN, BATMAN and WONDER WOMAN at the gala opening of this exhibit, In fact I heard they were thirty feet high. Apparently they were removed right after the opening event. Does anybody kow where they are now? Will we see them again sometime down the road?

They were awesome! They were actually only 12 feet tall each and my contact at The Met said they are now in a private collection. I tried to get her to score me the Wonder Woman, but no luck! :) They were spoken for before anyone even saw them for the first time!

Twelve feet tall thats still pretty big. I have no idea where I fot the eronious numbe of 30 from. So did any one score pictures of Wonder Woman statue? I am guessing she was made in Lynda Carter's image rather than based in comic book art.

They used the current DC Style Guide for the statues. Here are some photos:
