JB'll have to jump on that Neal Adams Batman Tumbler.

And there's the famous Adams Superman shattering the chains. Oooo.

Yeah. The Sgt. Rock tumbler looks sweet. Is there a website to order these from?

Are all of the solo X-men John's? And are these glass or plastic pint glasses?
These are great, I think Santa needs to get the WW glass for my daughter.

You can use the link I posted above, or just go to toontumblers.com.

By the way, the last time I ordered from PopFun directly, not only did all my
glasses arrive in perfect condition, they even threw in a free Gwen Stacy
tumbler that I didn't know about.

These tumblers are awesome, I believe they have a clear version of each cup as well as a frosted.

Not all of the solo X-Men are Byrne pieces, some are Cockrum if I am not mistaken, but there a few cool Byrne ones (Wolverine, Magneto, & Angel come to mind)

Picked up the Jim Aparo Batman Black and White yesterday at the LCS.  Excluding a few details I think it's a pretty close representation.

Are those tumblers made out of glass or plastic?  I'd like to buy the Superman/Batman/Wonder Woman tumblers for some kids I know, but if they're made out of glass I doubt they would survive beyond Xmas day.

Why is Batman's left foot resting under the base? The original drawing suggests that his feet are both on the same surface. Is it that his legs are spread so widely apart that they couldn't fit on a standard base, or did they try to "fix" the pose?

Thanos, I think it's because the stance is wider than the standard size they use for the base.  Otherwise, they would have had to change the pose, or reduce the size of the figure.  I've seen others in this line that do the same thing.
