Play Imaginative to Release Jim Lee Super Alloy Superman Exclusive Edition at SDCC

Play Imaginative New 52 Superman Exclusive Edition

Play Imaginative has whipped up an Exclusive Edition of its Super Alloy New 52 Superman that will be available at San Diego Comic-Con. It joins the Super Alloy New 52 Batman that is being re-released for SDCC after an initial release at the Singapore Toy, Games, and Comic Convention last year.

No word if this version of Superman will be any different than the Super Alloy Superman planned for general release – if it’s the same, it should feature a second head with heat vision eyes and a crystal fortress base that houses a fan to give the fabric cape the windblown look. Superman will be priced at $360, and we’ve heard Batman will go for $300. Both figures will be available at the Yes Anime booth #4729.

If You Like Superhero Movies, Check Out This Movie Poster Sale at Tanga

Tanga is calling this a “Framed Superhero Movie Poster Liquidation” but that’s underselling the cool factor. They’re over half off retail price, and they are framed and ready to hang – no more push pins and ruined posters for you. With the non-glare plexiglass, these will be a respectable addition to your man-cave that even your significant other can’t complain about – not legitimately, anyways.

And best of all, the sale is agnostic to Marvel (Spider-Man, Iron Man, Avengers, Thor, Hulk, Wolverine, and the Fantastic Four) and DC (Superman, Batman, and Green Lantern) and even includes posters from classic movies like Flash Gordon.

With a custom frame built just for your new poster, ready to hang, complete any movie room, office, or bedroom with these classic and timeless posters! Using a special non glare Plexiglass, your poster will look its best from any angle even in highly lit areas!

DC Universe Classics Christopher Reeves Superman

DC Universe Classics Christopher Reeves Superman by matthancock – I think this custom bears a reasonably close likeness to Christopher Reeves – in addition to the head sculpt, there’s some nice added details like the collar line for the costume and some not quite washboard abs to differentiate it from a standard DCUC Supes – ends Jun 25, 2013 18:21:09 PDT

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.
