Mattel Reveals SDCC Exclusive Man of Steel Movie Masters Superman vs General Zod 2-Pack

Mattel Man of Steel Superman vs Zod 1 Mattel Man of Steel Superman vs Zod 2

When Mattel announced the DC Universe Man of Steel Movie Masters 2-pack, they just had a single picture of the front of the package. Now they’ve provided additional (albeit small) images that show the back of the package, how the diorama is set up inside and out of the packaging, and a shot simulating how the heat vision will be realized. I’m a little suspect on the last part – I imagine this will be achieved with a small red LED aimed at Superman’s face, but I doubt the lighting can be so specific as it’s shown.

I thought maybe there’d be some battle damage to distinguish the figures from their retail counterparts, but the only differences I saw are that Superman will come with an “angry” head sculpt and a fabric cape instead of a plastic one. This 2-pack will be $50 at San Diego Comic-Con, and will be available on MattyCollector.com on August 5th.

Pre-Order Superman: Man of Steel Premium Format Figure from Sideshow Collectibles

Sideshow Superman Man of Steel Premium Format Figure 1

Speaking of Sideshow, I thought that their Superman: Man of Steel Premium Format Figure wouldn’t be available to pre-order until the end of the month, when their giveaway for Supes ends. But there’s not denying the mojo from Man of Steel opening in theaters today.

The Sideshow Superman is in 1/4 scale, so better make space for this massive figure. The Superman Premium Format Figure is available to pre-order from Sideshow Collectibles, and it’s already pre-sold out at BigBadToyStore.

Hot Toys Reveals Superman: Man of Steel Figure

Hot Toys Superman Man of Steel 1

Hot Toys teased their Superman: Man of Steel figure a few weeks ago, and I guess with the movie opening today they couldn’t wait any longer to reveal the figure. Some people have said that the figure is a bit too bulked up compared to Henry Cavill – and while I agree, I think it’s the right thing for a super-heroic figure.

While I haven’t seen the Hot Toys version listed yet, check out Sideshow Collectibles and BigBadToyStore.

Sideshow Man of Steel Premium Format Figure Contest Sideshow Superman Premium Format Figure

I know a few folks who lost their Kryptonite over the Premium Format Superman that Sideshow offered for pre-order earlier in the year. And understandably so – the figure somehow evokes Christopher Reeves while having a more comic book superhero physique. Sideshow is about to do it again, with their Premium Format Superman from Man of Steel.

They posted the teaser image above, and best of all it’s attached to a giveaway of the Premium Format Man of Steel Superman figure. The entry period closes at the end of the month – typically, pre-orders open right after that. Good luck!
