Superman 2025: High End Items

I own a lot of Superman stuff.  And a new Superman movie is not helping.

But occasionally there's a licensing deal I don't quite get.  And we get some curious high end items that I can't sort out "who is this for?"  While others make a lot of sense for nerds.

 
Sillage Fragrance:  $300

This is the item I would be least likely to buy.  I also don't understand fragrances as evidenced by my lifelong use of Golden Dial and Right Guard.  And I assume I smell like coffee and old books if you get up close.

The irony of this is that Old Spice is putting out Superman body spray for next to nothing.  I bought it.  It is.. .potent. 

Edge of Solitude Knife:  $800

This is so neat and so overpriced.  Knock $700 off, and we can talk.  But the handle looks dangerous?

Ferris Wheel Press Pen:  $250

I am not in the pen market.  Are Ferris Wheel pens this good?  I don't know.  It is a blue pen.

I went and looked and the actual pen is just blue, but the nib is neat.

This would be a nice retirement present.

Wolfpak Gym Bag:  $160 - $200

This is the cost of mid-tier luggage of a larger size, not what you pay for something you toss sweaty socks into.  A regular ol gymbag is still about $40-70 for a decent one at Target.  

Fossil Watch:  $250

This is not an extravagant price for a watch at all if it continues working for a while.  Nice watches cost a hell of a lot more than $250 (although this is significantly more than I've paid for a watch).

But...  I don't actually love this design.  It's fine.  But if I'm buying a Superman watch, I don't think "tombstone like" is what I'm buying.

I expected a Citizen Watch coming in at $950 or something, but no dice.  What you will see is this watch sell out and then go for $400-500 on ebay.

Life-Size Statue:  TBD

There are many high-end collectibles coming out, and that includes statues and action figures/ dolls that might as well be statues. And Jamie would surely say all of those were overpriced, but that's because she hasn't considered ordering a 1:1 scale David Corenswet for the dining room.

honestly, I wouldn't blame her.  Look at that jawline.

I assume this is for, like, businesses.  And insane people.  

And it makes me feel slightly better about when I buy a little Superman statue.

Update - it's about $12,000

Toyota bZ: no MSRP  but we're guessing >$35,000?

I'll be honest - Superman or not, I like this car's look in the standard gray.  It's a 2026 model, so I look forward to what people have to say about it as an electric car.

Not from the movie, but worth mentioning!

Robert Graham:  $198

I don't understand this shirt.  It seems that you're mostly hiding the details based on how you wear it, so what's the point?  Also, the hidden details are ugly?  

I am not one for fashion, no matter what Meryl Streep said while wearing that wig, so I don't know.

Just a blue shirt, like a shirt one might buy at Dillard's.

But if you walk away, you have an awkwardly placed shield.

Under the collar, there's not a stain, there's this terrible pattern with a phrase tied to Superman if you really squint.

And then this oddball red piping hidden inside the shirt.

I am sure someone is wearing this to der klerb.
