Superman Man of Steel Action Figure



Superman Man of Steel Movie Masters Action Figure


Superman Man of Steel Action Figure
The Superman Man of Steel action figure is, by and large, a very good figure. The first thing you will notice is how heavy it is. The whole figure is cast in a very durable rubber like plastic that should stand up to play. The paint application is done very well, with not a hint of bleeding or slop anywhere, and the overall mold is nicely detailed and rich in texture. Please take note that the cape is not cloth, but rather a sizeable, molded, piece of plastic. The cape is flexible, but not in any way pose able. The figure is pretty much the same size as the Dark Knight and Green Lantern Movie Master figures, and would fit nicely in with that line. It's nicely proportioned and not overly muscle bound like other Superman action figures.

As far as articulation goes? The head is on a ball joint but does not tilt up far enough so as to be put into a flying pose. The shoulders are ball jointed as well, with a mid-bicep swivel and single joint elbow. Both wrists rotate but lack up and down articulation. The is a swivel joint at the waist, and the hips are the type of joint anyone who collected DC Universe or other Movie Masters should be familiar with - meaning it's a peg joint which offers up and down rotation, but they have a flange which provides the legs to be swung out wide. There is a mid-level thigh swivel joint and both ankles can go up and down.

This is a wonderful Superman Man of Steel action figure and looks like the actor who played Superman in the movie "Man of Steel". The figure has great articulation and comes with a display stand with Superman's "S" chest emblem on it. This would be great for a comic book or action figure collector or it would make a good action figure toy for a child (over 3 yrs. old) to play with. I recommend this product.
