I honestly think so. I'm putting together a "todd mcfarlane designed" justice league, and all of these match suspiciously well with the style of his batman and wonder woman.
I was really surprised at how well the Ghosts of Krypton Superman head works on some of the other Superman body bucks, so much so that I picked up a head from Ebay. Thanks for the head swaps!
Definitely a fun figure! Oh you got sent the platinum Val! Awesome how you put the armor on other figures. I always love a good head swap. Enjoy your figure.
I love this wave. I just don’t have the variant brainiac. I heard people compare the armor to war hammer. I put the armor on multiple Superman figures, Darth Vader, Lex Luthor, Darth Malgus, the rock black Adam, necas Homelander and some other figures. The cod piece can stay on with some sticky tack at the back. The armor being removable to put on different figures is great selling point I looked forward to when first seeing the figures.
Oooo that Super Title card! ❤❤ If I was collecting all the McFarlane DC stuff and not just what I thought was essential this is a pretty solid Action Figure. Val Zod having a platinum version is also cool!
Another cool headswap is the digital blue repaint batman head on the superman body, it looks like a super man buster type suit for batman, the mask fits really nice and the colors kinda match too!
I was excited when I found Platinum Earth-2 Supes. His design is cool and while the paint is a bit lacking the armor really makes up for it. Also while I don’t completely love the look of the cape, it does feel nice to hold. Unfortunately I've been hit with the worst qc I've ever seen. The neck ball is incredibly tight. So tight in fact that when I tried to take the head off I ended up pulling the entire neck off the torso. Hips going forward and back are also really tight and on one of them the socket for the outward motion pops right out. Fixable but quite disappointing. Oh well, on the bright side this makes giving him a wired cape marginally easier
Review the secret empire captain america and superior iron man soon but do mot forget to compare cap next to mark 3 iron man to see if those two actually scale well?
I have Superior Iron Man, but I wasn't able to preorder the Cap. It's a Walmart exclusive, so it's hit or miss if I will be able to find one. If I can, I will though.
I removed the head off my armoured superman as it was too power ranger looking ( yuk ) binned it , then placed a Bearded solar super man head on it and its cool
I like how tall this figure is but I really don't like how most of the height is in the legs, it just gives it more of a heavily disproportionate quality than usual.
D'oh! I saw the Platinum Earth 2 figure and didn't buy it. I wanted it but didn't have the funds. Went back and it was gone. They did still have THIS Superman so I got it. I'm using the Starro Ultraman head on this figure. I looks MUCH better on this body and then I gave this head to the Unchained Armor Superman. With the battle scar, he looks awesome in that armor. I have him holding his helmet.
I think this version of superman and the armor makes it look like a toy.. Myself as a collector.. I would want something a bit less gigantic and ridiculous. I guess some will love it and others like myself will think this is just silly.
This overly detailed costume isn’t for me, but good for those folks that like it. I’m really taken back by those endlessly long legs and clown shoes. The proportions are very jarring when you see him along side other figures.
This is exactly what i think of when i hear the words "Superman by McFarlane"
Same!
Is supposed to replace the "McFarlane Designed" line? I am curiois about the regular Brainiac head on other robotic bodies if you ever do that video

You're very welcome! Happy to help
Kurt Russell head sculpt!?😆
I didn't notice it!🤣
🤔He would be playing Jor-EL's father or Russell Crowe!🤣😉👍
Man, that intro cracks me up 😂😂😂
Thank you!
Definitely a fun figure! Oh you got sent the platinum Val! Awesome how you put the armor on other figures. I always love a good head swap. Enjoy your figure.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed the video! Lot of work went into that one with all those swaps

Thanks for the tip! Mcfarlane was kind enough to send me both Brainiacs, so stay tuned

Amazing/cool head swaps 👍So many new options/figures as a result 👏
Indeed!
I would love to see this Superman head on a Batman body, like the grey and black version of nightfall.
Another cool headswap is the digital blue repaint batman head on the superman body, it looks like a super man buster type suit for batman, the mask fits really nice and the colors kinda match too!
Interesting! I wouldn't have thought of that
oh yeah, the celebration of the man of tomorrow! Thank you so much!
You're so welcome!
so excited for more Superman figures!
Same!
I really wish McFarlane made this figure 20 years ago. Can you imagine how good it would look if it wasn’t just a giant hunk of unpainted plastic?
I got the val zod armored Platinum the other day and he is killer
Nice! Glad you could nab one. That armor is so cool
Jason! You should do an action figure evolution of superman!
Perhaps around Labor Day as the climactic finale to Superman Summer?
@@5POAFigureReviews I like the way you think, toyman in my phone!
This remind me of death metal superman, hope ypu try to do headswap or kitbash to this, its cool

wasn't sure about this wave but this could be the missing mcfarlane designed Superman, not big fan of Supes but I'm interested

Jeeeezus! This design! Like Superman by way of Warhammer
You know that's a great observation! Which, when you think of how much Henry Cavill loves Warhammer is kind of cool
honestly that headsculpt with some repaint kinda fixes Hush Superman
It really does!
That superman looks like Robert Z'Dar
Ha! Kurt Russell, Robert Z'Dar...either way this Superman was in Tango and Cash lol and hey, so was future Lois Lane Terri Hatcher
I removed the head off my armoured superman as it was too power ranger looking ( yuk ) binned it , then placed a Bearded solar super man head on it and its cool
Yeah, that's solar suit head looks great on that body
Superman with a half mask, to me, always looks like a variant of Cyborg Superman (Hank Henshaw)
I can see it!
Welp, looks like i have a way to complete my jack burton big trouble in little china figure
I'd love to see it when it is done!
🔥
I think it would be cool if you went back and re-reviewed older figures with the new system.
That's an interesting idea
Great Review Once Again Brother I Don't Have Val Yet But I Did ?ove The Main Superman It's A Cool Unique Take On Them.
I feel like this superman would go good with the leather jacket batman
Ooh I wish I had thought of that when doing the comparison section
@@5POAFigureReviews they'd fit right into an apocalyptic setting
that page punchers head makes superman look like stan smith from American dad.
Now I can't unsee it lol
@@5POAFigureReviews Can you put that head sculpt on lee bermejo batman and the dark knight returns batman and show me? Just a pic is fine.
I like how tall this figure is but I really don't like how most of the height is in the legs, it just gives it more of a heavily disproportionate quality than usual.
It does, but as long as the armor is on I think it works
Kurt Russell, yeah or maybe a rugged Sam Jones.
Right again!😆
I can see it
When are you gonna do head swaps for the black and gray knightfall Batman?
Should be out either Friday or Saturday of next week
What about a head swap using Zod?
That's a fun idea!

You know in hindsight I totally missed the opportunity to do an Unchained swap
@@5POAFigureReviews In case you haven't done it by now, I just posted a video on that shows the swap.
Good lord this Superman must be 8 in tall
Just about, yeah. Makes me wish I had a Beast Kingdom to compare him to. Or a Mego.
RIGAMAROLE DONE ✅
Thank you!!
Black suit Henry Cavill is back!!!!!!
Back again. Cavill's back. Tell a friend...
The armor is good on some of Tmnt figures from neca
I would never have thought to try it on them!
@@5POAFigureReviews inspired by the heman and tmnt crossover line.
I wish the headsculpt wasn't so ugly and looked more like the one on the cover art of the comic.
If we had a head that looked like the cover, it would be one of the best Superman heads ever
@@5POAFigureReviews AGREED!!!!
what did supes say? like comment subscribe?
Superman with thicc armor look weird
I'm going to pass on this. The depiction of the character art wise is one thing, but in physical form it'd horrible.
I think this version of superman and the armor makes it look like a toy.. Myself as a collector.. I would want something a bit less gigantic and ridiculous. I guess some will love it and others like myself will think this is just silly.
Totally understand. The toyish quality is what works for me. Brings me back to being a kid. But I get it not being for everyone

Wow, this Superman is ugly…
