Superman Jack con Sorpresa Candy Argentina

Superman and Supergirl Premiums from "Jack con sorpresa" candy made in Argentina, these two "surprise" figures are part of a mix collection of DC Comics and Marverl Super Heroes. With a total of 27 mini-figures (they are about an inch tall) to collect, these mini-heroes came pack with a piece of chocolate and some fun tattoos, stickers and games. Just like the Ricolino premium from Mexico, they don't have the best paint job; but a great pair to add to my Superman Premiums collection. Once again thanks to Robert for taking the time to find the whole set for me.

Superman Jack in the Box 1999

The chain of fast food restaurants Jack in the Box ran their DC Super Heroes promotion in 1999. Figures included in the Jack's kids meals were: Superman, Darkseid, Flash, Aquaman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and Batman. All figures were based in the Superman animated style, also promoting the tv series.





Superman and Clark Kent came in the now classic phone booth with a quick change action. Superman usually stores his Clark Kent clothing shrunken down inside a secret pouch hidden inside of his cape, though some stories have shown him leaving his clothes in some covert location (usually places like phone booths) for later retrieval.






Darkseid's action consisted in pressing the button on his back to illuminate his eyes, creating the infamous Omega Effect; which is a form of energy that he fires from his eyes as either concussive force or beams of disintegration, capable of transmuting or erasing most objects and organisms from existence as well as to reform or resurrect them. Anything Darkseid disintegrates with the Omega Effect can be brought back at any time by him, and he often uses this as a form of punishment.

This paper is the promotional that comes inside the plastic bag (not picture, not much to show really; just warning information) it offers an special subscription offer for the super hero magazines and a contest to win a one grand prize: winner will be featured in an upcoming DC Comics book, also receive the original artwork framed and signed by the artist.
