Above.

I already have 2 boxes of stuff at the Flat, including all of the following.

Batman (XL 2nd skin, Dark Knight and classic Adam West Style with mask and big black cape)
Darth Vader (with light sabre, mask and big black cape)
Darth Maul (same)
He Man (with blow up Power Sword)
Ken (from Street Fighter)
Obi Wan Kenobi (with blue light sabre)
Robin (with muscle chest, eye mask and yellow cape)
Ryu (from Street Fighter)
Scorpion (from Mortal Kombat)
Spiderman (with mask)
Sub Zero (from Mortal Kombat)
Superman (classic, muscle chest and 2nd skin)
Thor (with helmet, red cape and plastic hammer)
Zorro (with eye mask, hat and plastic sword)

I'm tempted to get Shazam or Hawkman, but they'd be expensive.

Ideas? Or should I stick to what's already in the boxes?

Yeah there's a few events coming up next year, including 2 in the same weekend in February, Chesterfield and Leeds, and then Sheffield comic con at Magna in mid March.

I don't think I'll be able to go to everything though, obviously Laura would moan about the extra hours involved.
