Overall a nice tidbit but not all that impressed so far with any of these particular guys. I was hoping for an Action Comics 1 pose for Supes.

OMG Azs! I don't have to love you!

really thanks!

what you mean with take a look in all the others Origin figs? the mag is on sale now with all the pictures?!

OMG that Superman looks cute!

It seems like it'd be more cost efficent to give someone a natural 9Av, then to add perplex.

Also, just looking at a figure that has a lower Av then Eddie Fyers, Detective Chimp and Oberon is just a tad disheartning.

Though, to me, it looks like a flash with a little more plastic, it may be the best pose for that type of Superman figure. Now if he were an REV, the Vet could be flying, and they could have got away with the Superman #1 pose.

I really was hoping for that pose. WITHOUT the car.

If Supes got the Action Comics #1 pose, I would argue that he ALWAYS has a heavy object to bash you with.

So here I go adding to Kaitouace's sig again, but he hit the nail on the head. FOOM is very playable.

All well and good if an 8 AV is accurate for the guy (if he costs less than 40 points), but don't make him the grand marshal of the Origin parade.

Although the AC #1 pose is the most recognizable comic cover around, I think it would be a little much for a HC fig.

For god's sake that would be hell to fit that in my box. Think about the lumpy maps! It would topple faster than Legacy batman in an earthquake!

I don't think its an "activation" click, especially if he has 3 damage. You are probably right that its his first click.

His attack will probably go up to 9's.
