During SDCC last year, where we saw an 8-inch Death and a Bruce Wayne to Batman figures, Mattel’s DC team hinted that they would return to figures with more mass appeal for the big show this year. Looks like they are making good with the DC exclusive they announced today – a Superman vs. Zod 2-pack from Man of Steel.
Not much in the way of pics, which will be revealed closer to the show, but I expect that we’ll see some deco variants on the Man of Steel Superman and General Zod figures that were revealed near the start of the year. Maybe some heat vision eyes on Supes? How about some battle damage? Could be anything at this point, but I’m looking forward to it.
Also revealed today, a Hot Wheels Battlestar Galactica Colonial Viper, to accompany the Cylon Raider announced yesterday. Good stuff!
DC Man of Steel™ Movie Masters® Superman™ vs. General Zod Movie Pack
This 2-pack brings to life the super charged battle between two powerful Kryptonians, Superman™ and the General Zod, an exciting diorama set in the city of Metropolis! The package features lights that simulate Superman’s Heat Ray vision, and shows off the Kryptonian’s super strength and flying ability. The diorama is completed with sound effects to help bring the scene to life. Full image will be available on 6/17.
This product will be available for pre-order at MattyCollector.com on June 4, 2013, to be picked up at San Diego Comic-Con (details to come). It will also be available for purchase at the show, then at MattyCollector.com on August 5, 2013.
