Lord of the Rings

Commemorate all the Lanterns currently saving the DC Universe

Rule No. 1: Don’t call this a jewelry box. It’s not a jewelry box. Girls have jewelry boxes. This is a display case. Although admittedly, it’s a display case for rings. But sometimes it’s OK for guys to have rings. Like if they just graduated from college or won the World Series or, um… want to dress up like a super hero.

Look, this is just cool, OK?

Inspired by the Blackest Night storyline currently wreaking havoc in the DC universe, this display case collects the eight different Power Rings worn by the various corps of Lanterns, each with its own color and insignia. (Not familiar with the Blackest Night storyline and the war of the Lanterns? No chance we’re even going to try explaining it all here. Try checking out its Wikipedia page. Or buying a year’s worth of comics.)

The most unbelievalbe part of the display case—besides the fact that it costs $200—is its accompanying warning: “Rings are prop replicas ONLY and are not meant to be worn.” Come on. What could possibly go wrong with you slipping one of the rings onto your finger? Well, besides you accidentally resurrecting dead super heroes bent on using their heightened powers to destroy all life in the universe?

On second thought, maybe $200 is really reasonable.
