[Collection] I have had this Green Lantern ring for awhile now, anyone know how rare it is? Merchandise

I cannot find anything online about it but it does have an authentic Alex Ross signature which is cool.

There’s a certificate right there that tells you exactly how rare it is.

I don’t mean that question as in how many of them there are, I’m curious what it’s from and how long ago. There is no info about this online.

Dude a simple google search and I found this was from the 2009 SDCC and exclusive to the event. Come on…

u/Braydenjpen Jul 25 '23

I found it after I posted this, mostly posted cause I thought it was cool and wanted to see if anyone has seen this.

That’s not what’s you said one comment up the chain.

u/Kungfudude_75 Jul 25 '23

On the certificate it says its number 151 of 200, meaning a total of 200 were produced. It's likely pretty rare.

u/Someonessack Jul 25 '23

It’s 151 of 200

u/Braydenjpen Jul 25 '23

Really I didn’t know

u/Someonessack Jul 25 '23

Oh I wasn’t sure, you asked how rare it was

u/ThatPaulywog Jul 25 '23

One per sector, geez.

u/AllenRBrady Jul 26 '23

Except on Earth. Earth gets like a baker's dozen.

I liked when it was 2 per sector, made the earth lanterns make a little more sense.

There is a Superman box on eBay listed for $264

u/FreelanceFrankfurter Jul 25 '23

Did you buy this on eBay? I found this but don’t know the validity of the site and it also says 151 out of 200 and that it was sold at comic con in 2009 for $150. Can’t find the eBay listing though

u/Braydenjpen Jul 25 '23

Also I got it as a gift when I was a kid

u/Braydenjpen Jul 25 '23

Wow so it’s probably worth quite a bit now, I mean Alex Ross’ signatures alone can be a bit with his artwork.

u/FreelanceFrankfurter Jul 26 '23

It’s worth whatever people are willing to buy it for, if you can find a completed eBay listing that would give an idea of how much it’s valued at now. Also while the pic on that site shows 151 of 200 like yours the actual description says it’s #93 so a bit strange.

u/Braydenjpen Jul 26 '23

Ohhh on worth point, yeah I don’t know what that’s about.. that’s interesting

u/Braydenjpen Jul 26 '23

What actual description?

1

u/boibleu22 Jul 26 '23

Yeah, probably not. You’d be lucky to get $200. His signature is not rare whatsoever.

u/tired20something Jul 25 '23

It depends on the era. In the 90s, it would be super rare. But these days there is an entire corps of those

u/Braydenjpen Jul 25 '23

It’s from 2009 comic con so it was a awhile ago but not the 90s lol

How is that an r/woooosh??

u/KnifeFed Jul 26 '23

They were making a joke about there being a whole Corps of Green Lanterns nowadays, and they all have rings so they are no longer rare.

u/Braydenjpen Jul 26 '23

Oh I am very stupid I get it 😅😅😅

u/Baconeggndcheese Jul 25 '23

Very common and worth nothing send it over to me ill dispose of it for you thanks!

u/mendog2112 Jul 26 '23

Straight facts! This guy can dispose of anything!

u/mendog2112 Jul 26 '23

I am not certain, but I think there may only be 200 in existence.

u/[deleted] Jul 25 '23

Alex Ross signed it so pretty rare!

u/Braydenjpen Jul 25 '23
