Great review. Im new to collecting multiverse and DC in general, and have been looking for a good modern superman with decent articulation. Hope Mattel continues to improve this line, Im definitely picking up this whole wave.
I hope Mattel makes a more current version with red boots, yellow belt buckle and no "man of steel" movie inspired wrist cuffs. That would be a great candidate for a multipack.
Thanks again I'm glad. I didn't pass on this one .Now I also have the Trinity war Superman with Body armor and he is taller than the new multiverse version . And I like them both and my crisis on infinite earths too .O.G SUPERMAN. .. YOU MAKE ME FEEL PROUD TO BE A COLLECTOR ! .. THANK YOU ! BRAD ..👍😊☺️
ok 👌 face sculpt do looks great and the cape is almost a winner. And yeah good neck and head articulation more needy for this than ankle pivot.. wouldn't hurt to get both though.
What a nice review! Love the comparison with the other superman as well the customization part. Keep up the great standard. I will get this superman when is available for sure. But the want, I am waiting is the Lex-armored Supeman! Can't wait for your take on that figure!
122superboy Yep. Superman 36. He ripped it right off. I think at the very least he is back to his old ways of completely hating Superman. Exciting and sad and yet feels right all at once. DC is slowly returning all the big stuff to the status quo from before new 52.
Brad The DC Universe Geek seriously? Clay face looks awesome. May be everyone wanted a more BTAS style and smoothness but this one looks great. With superman rebirth for. Try a swap with the dc direct superman www.amazon.com/DC-Direct-Re-Activated-Superman-Action/dp/B000N5UHHI. The head may work pretty good with the rebirth body.
That head is a bit too big. Checked already. I like the Clayface quite a bit. I'm just taking the piss out of him for looking out of the fact that some people are really upset with it. I think this one is better than thew previous DCUC version, and I have two of that one. :-)
I hope so. Maybe they could replace the headsculpt too. I really really don't like the one they chose in the first place. It was removed before the video review was even complete. lol.
I love the head, cape, and shield, but don't like the costume. Might have to do a kit bash. Nice to see the modern articulation, but could really use double elbows and ankles.
Take that Dinosaur now get back in the kitchen and make me a samich...... Great video dude it's a shame he didn't come with that cool shaded paint job they first showed off for him but I am impressed with the hidden peg holes
I have this figure and I initially found it underwhelming compared to the pre-death classic Superman sculpt but after getting the kingdom come version, I quite like it. I think it’s all that blue that makes it look too bland for me. The red and black in the kingdom come version breaks it up and adds detail to the figure.
I think the blue of the costume MIGHT match the old Target exclusive Mattel Public Enemies Superman, actually. You could swap the Rebirth arms on and get an Action Comics #1000 costume. For the full effect, you'd want to paint the belt loops (they were unpainted on PE Superman) and swap heads. But PE Superman was extra tan so his neck might need a repaint. The blue itself was a match. Maybe you could just attach the lower waist of PE Superman on here.
Brad The DC Universe Geek my Superman just arrived here in Vietnam (i got Paulmartstore to deliver my fig to another shipper that brought my figure here). My Batman hopefully would arrive next week. I guess I would use your suggestion to just use a new 52 aquaman and flash and start building my rebirth JL.
I think it’s an articulation thing. I remember a few folks getting annoyed with the DCUC Batman and Superman capes so maybe that what it is. Then again, Rebirth Batman has a ginormous cape so I’m not sure what is going on. Lol.
Great review brad just curious but did you ever try putting the Jim Gordon Batman head on the rebirth Batman I just got the rebirth bats and did that and it looks fantastic
I tried it but felt the head looked a bit too large for my taste so in the end I plunked it down on a kitbash using a new cape on the body of the Batman Unlimited figure. The bulkier body looks great. There is a picture of it on my Instagram linked top right on the channel banner.
Great video. BTW, not really comic book related but, Have you heard of a UA-cam channel called "We are change" ? You sound just like the guy in those videos ( Luke Rudkowski ) . Maybe it's just the Canadian accent.
Might pick this up,because he looks pretty dope. Oh yeah there is already a turd monster character,his name is Shithead. Yes i'm serious his name is that,he's created by Mark Millar on the book Wanted
When will these be on stock ? Who will have them first ? I know u probably don’t have all the answers but worth asking Btw , nice review watched all the way threw
I'm betting Walmart will have them first. You could always order them from BBTS or ToyWiz or Paulmartstore if you are itching to get them. That's what I did. In Canada there isn't even any guarantee I'll find them at Walmart or ToysRUs.
I absolutely despise the DCUC male buck so I'm glad they're finally starting to change it. Also how well does the Icons Supergirl scale with it? Is she horribly out of scale or could it be fudged with some posing
I don't care about that ankle pivot garbage cry, I care more about the sculpt, and the figure is good but I wish his face look more "young". For me, looks thin and old.
BTW dude, you remind me a little bit to Glen Webb for the passion you put in the video.
From certain angles I can see a little bit of Christopher Reeves in the face sculpt.
King A.P.E. absolutely!
Great review. Im new to collecting multiverse and DC in general, and have been looking for a good modern superman with decent articulation. Hope Mattel continues to improve this line, Im definitely picking up this whole wave.
It's a great time to start a new collection!
Good review. I'm excited for this wave and happy to see you started with Superman.
I can’t wait to get this wave, especially this Rebirth Superman. Great review as always Brad
Thanks Captain! I'm pretty stoked for the next wave too when we get Wonder Woman, Ray, and Simon Baz. :-)
Brad The DC Universe Geek heck yeah! I’m hoping for a Red Hood, Rebirth Red Robin and nightwing this Year
It's a improve. Love Rebirth Superman. Great review.
I agree! Thank you!
I hope Mattel makes a more current version with red boots, yellow belt buckle and no "man of steel" movie inspired wrist cuffs. That would be a great candidate for a multipack.
Love the new articulation in the legs but please Mattel give it ankle pivot.
Thanks again I'm glad. I didn't pass on this one .Now I also have the Trinity war Superman with Body armor and he is taller than the new multiverse version . And I like them both and my crisis on infinite earths too .O.G SUPERMAN. .. YOU MAKE ME FEEL PROUD TO BE A COLLECTOR ! .. THANK YOU ! BRAD ..👍😊☺️
I'm in love with that Wonder woman figure she's awesome .
ok 👌 face sculpt do looks great and the cape is almost a winner. And yeah good neck and head articulation more needy for this than ankle pivot.. wouldn't hurt to get both though.
I never owned a 6-inch comic Superman before, I'm excited to get this one to go with my Rebirth Batman!
They look swell together!
What a nice review! Love the comparison with the other superman as well the customization part. Keep up the great standard. I will get this superman when is available for sure. But the want, I am waiting is the Lex-armored Supeman! Can't wait for your take on that figure!
Thanks! I'm pretty stoked for the Lex CNC too. I think he has gone back to his old way now. He ripped the S off his chest last I saw him.
Brad The DC Universe Geek no way! Lex is not longer wearing the S ?
122superboy Yep. Superman 36. He ripped it right off. I think at the very least he is back to his old ways of completely hating Superman. Exciting and sad and yet feels right all at once. DC is slowly returning all the big stuff to the status quo from before new 52.
im deciding whether to get this Supes or wait for the DC Essential Supes
ahmad maliq I just get both 😉😜😆👍
So Multiverse finally has a leg up on Legends. It's only the packaging but moral victory nonetheless.
The wave looks great but it's the two face that's calling me. Gotta get him for my Batman collection. Clay face too. Great review Brad.
I like that Two Face as well. Some people are upset about the look of Clayface but in person he looks pretty sweet!
Brad The DC Universe Geek seriously? Clay face looks awesome. May be everyone wanted a more BTAS style and smoothness but this one looks great.
With superman rebirth for. Try a swap with the dc direct superman www.amazon.com/DC-Direct-Re-Activated-Superman-Action/dp/B000N5UHHI. The head may work pretty good with the rebirth body.

I can't wait to get this Superman! I'm also very anxious to see a revamped version of Batman!!
I hope they can give us a version of Batman with new articulation in some sort of multipack. That would be rad.
Brad The DC Universe Geek that's what I'm saying! An updated Batman in this new articulation is WAY overdue!!
I hope so. Maybe they could replace the headsculpt too. I really really don't like the one they chose in the first place. It was removed before the video review was even complete. lol.
Brad The DC Universe Geek Absolutely! A whole new Batman sculpt with this new articulation would be most appreciated!!
I love the head, cape, and shield, but don't like the costume. Might have to do a kit bash. Nice to see the modern articulation, but could really use double elbows and ankles.
I agree with the sentiment about this suit in particular. I would have preferred the current Rebirth suit.
Take that Dinosaur now get back in the kitchen and make me a samich......
Great video dude it's a shame he didn't come with that cool shaded paint job they first showed off for him but I am impressed with the hidden peg holes

I think it’s all that blue that makes it look too bland for me. The red and black in the kingdom come version breaks it up and adds detail to the figure.
I like the head sculpt on this one better than the new DC Essentials Superman
May i know which head is that on the superman icons body? With the blown hair one, thankyou in advance
Great review dude, the figure seems to be really nice, but the body mold looks a bit skinny. I think it needs more muscle definition.
I agree, the legs look pretty narrow in the groin.
Great review! Is this line supposed to be the successor to DCUC? Not so sure if it’s as good overall
Great review Brad, hope you will review the Batwoman figure, I'm kinda on the fence about it.
Just reviewed her. I'm getting the whole wave up. I'll likely review all of these as they come out.
Brad The DC Universe Geek haha i know , the Batwoman review was up abou 2hrs after i asked , i thought " blimey that was quick" lol. Great work 👍👍
I think the blue of the costume MIGHT match the old Target exclusive Mattel Public Enemies Superman, actually.
You could swap the Rebirth arms on and get an Action Comics #1000 costume. For the full effect, you'd want to paint the belt loops (they were unpainted on PE Superman) and swap heads. But PE Superman was extra tan so his neck might need a repaint. The blue itself was a match.
Maybe you could just attach the lower waist of PE Superman on here.
Finally! A video review of him. Still waiting for my order from Paulmartstore
Paulmarts was the first place I saw list them so I jumped on it! Hope your order gets to you soon.
Brad The DC Universe Geek my Superman just arrived here in Vietnam (i got Paulmartstore to deliver my fig to another shipper that brought my figure here). My Batman hopefully would arrive next week. I guess I would use your suggestion to just use a new 52 aquaman and flash and start building my rebirth JL.
Why are the capes on DC figures getting narrower? DC Essentials are like that too.
I think it’s an articulation thing. I remember a few folks getting annoyed with the DCUC Batman and Superman capes so maybe that what it is. Then again, Rebirth Batman has a ginormous cape so I’m not sure what is going on. Lol.
Great review brad just curious but did you ever try putting the Jim Gordon Batman head on the rebirth Batman I just got the rebirth bats and did that and it looks fantastic
I tried it but felt the head looked a bit too large for my taste so in the end I plunked it down on a kitbash using a new cape on the body of the Batman Unlimited figure. The bulkier body looks great. There is a picture of it on my Instagram linked top right on the channel banner.
HOLLY MOLLY, that superman rebirth is tall, very tall, its like a big brother to other dcuc superman lol XD
It is a little taller. Partly because the head is a little bigger and partly because the body is longer due to the legs being longer.
Can you compare this with an Alex Ross (justice) Superman . Next time.thanks for posting .
Great review
Thank you!
What head did you use on the Superfriends Superman?
I showed two of them. The first was the Lee Bermejo and the second is a custom headsculpt from ToyBox Customs. You can see his profile on Instagram.
First person I've seen put up a review of this fig, oooo hope it's good
Ok just finished it, looking good supes looking good. Def a step in the right direction.
I agree. Take this with a grain of salt, but the word on the street is that there may be a classic Superman on the way too.
Are the articulations loose ? Cause the DC icon rebirth version is so tight that it just broke
My figure doesn't have waste swivel and the belt doesn't seem to be centered with the top part of thr figure... Anyone else encounter the same issue?
Great video. BTW, not really comic book related but, Have you heard of a UA-cam channel called "We are change" ? You sound just like the guy in those videos ( Luke Rudkowski ) . Maybe it's just the Canadian accent.
Thanks! Never heard of him but I am interested to see. I'll have a peek.
I have this one just he is not as tall as he appears to be . The cape should have been wider . It's an okay figure .
Might pick this up,because he looks pretty dope. Oh yeah there is already a turd monster character,his name is Shithead. Yes i'm serious his name is that,he's created by Mark Millar on the book Wanted
we need a new multiverse rebirth batman figure
I didn't even know there was a rebirth Batman figure...
When will these be on stock ?
Who will have them first ?
I know u probably don’t have all the answers but worth asking
Btw , nice review watched all the way threw
I'm betting Walmart will have them first. You could always order them from BBTS or ToyWiz or Paulmartstore if you are itching to get them. That's what I did. In Canada there isn't even any guarantee I'll find them at Walmart or ToysRUs.
Can supes look up and do a flying pose?
Eric Valenz he can't look up really. You have to fake it by leaning his chest back.
Yeah, that's pretty much it.
Thanks guys
I absolutely despise the DCUC male buck so I'm glad they're finally starting to change it. Also how well does the Icons Supergirl scale with it? Is she horribly out of scale or could it be fudged with some posing
Supergirl can absolutely be fudged in because, as a teenage girl, she is actually quite a bit shorter than Supes in the comics. :-)
Superbe
Prototype looks better but what can we do
I know. Sad reality that the prototype always looks better. :-( They are painted by professionals.
Its got a little Christopher reeve in it I like it less Elvis
No ankle rockers?! Cheap move on Mattel. Shame on you Mattel.
I don't care about that ankle pivot garbage cry, I care more about the sculpt, and the figure is good but I wish his face look more "young". For me, looks thin and old.
Justo lo que buscaba, ahora ya pueden complemetar a mi colección de marvel legends.
