I think everyones wives would like to have a word with you and tell you they've heard that every month for the past 10 years.....
NECA are definitly doing a 1/4 scale Superman Man Of Steel as i got the pre-order from the UK distributor this morning.
No mention of it being limited edition in the discription though.
Discription of Superman Man Of Steel due May
Our 1/4 scale action figure stands just over 18" tall
and features nearly 30 points of articulation, an
incredibly realistic portrait sculpt, and a fabric cape.
Discription of 66 Batman due July
We grew up with this iconic version of Batman and
we are honored to have created this 18" tall
poseable figure featuring Adam West's likeness,
functioning utility belt, interchangeable hands,
and loads more.
Discription of 89 Batman due August
We are honoured to present this 18" tall poseable
figure featuring Michael Keaton's likeness, utility
belt, batarang, grapple-gun, interchangeable
hands, and loads more. Featuring over 20 points of
articulation, incredible detail, and a real fabric
cape.

Cool accessories and hands. I can't wait for this!
I really hope NECA can get a 7 inch version of this out one day but I have a feeling Mattel is the only company permitted to make figures of that size at this time.

I'm glad NECA are producing these figures. I wouldn't mind them trying to beat Hot Toys to the punch a bit though in the future just to open up the competition.
Instead of coming in behind, stick their noses in front and see what happens to the market.
It would give Hot Toys a nice wake up call if simultaneously NECA released a figure in a larger scale at a third of the price.

Yea some friendly competition will undoubtedly equal a win for collectors. I'm super happy with what I've seen about the NECA figures. I have NECAs Captain America and I'm blown away with their recent overall jump in better production value. The toy fair pictures of Ironman and the two Batmans look amazing and I pray that they make all of the avengers as I can't help but drool at the thought of a NECA HULK.
PO'ed the two Batmans and contemplating the NECA Superman Man of Steel.

Honestly, I'd love it if NECA grabbed the bull by the horns. For one thing, it might improve the quality overall; if HT doesn't want to be beat by a figure that's, as you guys have said, a third of the price, they might be less likely to half *** it (*cough*QS Batman*cough*), and, for another, maybe if they realize that there's a company out there that produces really good stuff for a fraction of the price, they might be less likely to sucker their customers for all they're worth. Granted, this is wishful thinking, mostly, but, to be honest, if they are fixing the sculpt, regardless of what the final product paint looks like, you could get a custom paint job that makes it look just as good as the HT for the same price, if not less, and at a bigger scale.

Yeah, I think that cements it for me: Dis ting will be mine! It should serve as a fantastic placeholder, at the very least, until HT announces their's; of course, I'll probably like this one so much that I won't want to move it. I just hope that I have a nice Nolan Bats to serve in contrast to it (c'mon, HT, come through with the QS
).
