Product Description
This figure features multiple points of articulation, a base, and is 6.75" tall. Also includes alternate transformed heads.
These new Showcase toys are great. This Superman is based on Curt Swan's version. He was the most popular artist of the 50's 60's and 70's. He is my favorite Superman artist, with Dan Jurgens, John Byrne, and Jerry Ordway closely following. It has about 10 points of articulation. The points are well hidden, so it can look more like a statue. My only complaint was that there was no symbol on the back of his cape. It's only a minor quibble, it doesn't affect my review.
As a child in the mid-1960s, I enjoyed reading the various Superman comics, and have many pleasant memories of how my imagination soared reading those wonderful Silver Age stories. At that time, Superman was drawn by the great artist Curt Swan; and, to this day, I consider Swan's Superman the definitive comic book version of the Man of Steel. For quite some time, wanting a nostalgic keepsake of the Curt Swan Superman, I searched for a Superman action figure modeled after Swan's version, but was unsuccessful. Until, that is, I came upon the Showcase Presents Superman figure. This figure closely approximates Swan's Superman, and is well-painted and well-sculpted. In addition, the figure has an ample base featuring a plastic pin that fits into the heel of the figure's right foot, allowing the figure to stand more securely. The Showcase Presents Superman figure would certainly be a worthy addition to any Superman or action-figure collection. I particularly recommend it to anyone who, like me, has fond memories of Curt Swan's Silver Age Superman.
