Re: McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse toyline
Okay, there is so much wrong with this figure. Even forgiving the body mold re-use, it's all wrong.
By far the most iconic version of Superman from Action Comics #1 is the cover image. But on the cover he's wearing red booties (not knee high boots), and his suit is a royal, or dark blue.
That light blue colour is seen on just the first interior page (the rest he's mostly darker), where the red boots are also missing, but why would you go for the interior page art, when the cover art is so much more iconic?
And as for the S shield, the interior art only shows the basic triangular version. The police badge style S shield is visible on the front cover, but even then, I'd say it's open to interpretation as to whether it's just the basic triangle, or not.
Regardless, it's a hodgepodge, and a bad one at that.
