Here's the first version.

I have this version and it is pretty good, definitely one of the best Superman molds from McFarlane. Though I don't know if that is saying much to begin with.

I have to agree. I own this version too, and I still think it's the best Superman figure head-wise and in terms of body proportion.

The only downside is no "S" on the back of the cape and the figure could be a little taller.

The later ones (such as the upcoming regular Hush Jim Lee version) seem to make the character's body too bulky or their heads look horrible. The only other Superman figure I did like was the Page Punchers Superman, which has its own unique sculpt.

Yeah there have been some truly awful versions of Supes lately (SDCC exclusive, First Appearance). I almost wonder at times if McFarlane is like Frank Miller and has some kind of deep rooted disdain for the character.


Personally my faves to date are the AC#1000 and Red Son versions. Those two really hit it out of the park for me personally. I would then follow up with New 52? Supes (the one without the trunks) and Bizzaro.



I think Ultra Man looks good, but I don't actually own him so I can't say for sure.

I don't know that might just be you. I enjoy the Action Comics #1 and the SDCC 80th anniversary Superman. It's basically the Hush Superman repainted in a fun way.

Of course it is all personal opinion.


You say a "fun way", I say someone spilled some paint on a figure and decided to sell it anyway.

I preordered Tim Drake Robin and Anti-monitor through gamestop.ca for pickup in store, but they hadn't received them yet. Should I look elsewhere, or could they still be being delivered?
