Re: 1/6 Superman line from Mattel?

The Reeve headsculpt doesn't look to bad. I will be interested in seeing how this could be customized. I hope the paintjob isn't to horrendus when it comes out.

Re: 1/6 Superman line from Mattel?

Headsculpt isn't horrible.

The body is. Nice try, Mattel.

Re: 1/6 Superman line from Mattel?

Sure, the body is not too good, but the HS looks really okay! I'll buy oneof each at least. Anyone knows when and where we can get them?

Re: 1/6 Superman line from Mattel?

so this must be the body design they are using for all the mattel stuff...the neck line is weird and all around it's way too skinny.

These heads wouls look great on a Soldier Story body or one of the upcoming Triad Evo body!

Count me in for these. I think the Superman needs a different body. Zod looks great though. Cannot find any referance to red on the costume though.

If you could combine the neck of a Soldier Story S2 with the broader chest of a True Type, you'd have the perfect body.

Im actually really excited about the Ghostbusters and even Zod looks pretty good, but the Body on Supes is nothing short of an abomination. He can't look more anorexic then the Barbies made by the same company.

He's freakin Superman, either give him a body that reflects that or don't make him at all.

This figure is horrendous...
Maybe the head with a nice repaint would look good...
but that body is awful...

Re: 1/6 Superman line from Mattel?

Ouch!

Don't know if it's a typo, but the Superman Homepage describes these figs as being 13"! If so, the transplant on a 12" is probably going to be impossible!

Re: 1/6 Superman line from Mattel?

Apparently, these are due next winter...

Re: 1/6 Superman line from Mattel?

These are the same bodies as the Ghostbusters - don't think they're 13". And it's way too skinny for Reeve. But the costume and headsculpt aren't too bad. The cape is much too short though.

Re: 1/6 Superman line from Mattel?

lol, sure they are, kid.

You're right Dave,

Since then, I've seen HD pics and there is a plate next to the figs which says 12", winter and Matty collector exclusive...

Re: 1/6 Superman line from Mattel?

it's neat were getting a christopher reeves superman. a better paint job will do this figure good. giving him a muscular body will be wrong because. c.r. was not a big muscular guy...

They are ONLY going to be available on Matty.

Re: 1/6 Superman line from Mattel?

I will buy one. I have a few truetypes sitting around that I plan to use to body swap. Although I will probably not follow the line in its entirety.
