I don't collect Mezco, but if I were, I'd definitely start with this one! That light up eyes headsculpt looks amazing! I even like the scale. Great review!
Not gonna lie I was I bit skeptical after seeing a few shorts on UA-cam but I was also waiting for your review on UA-cam (I consider your channel the best action figure one) and my worries are gone. This is by far my most anticipated pre-order of this year. Great work as always and greetings from Brazil!
@@Forty3Snakes Well I respect your opinion but I really like this chill casual vibe that he brings in his reviews not to mention the amazing (no pun intended) shots angles and light that really values each figure atributes. As a non professional photographer I can appreciate the work and effort he puts in each video.
My biggest problem with it is the emblem I know shouldn’t be a big deal but I really wish they just went extra on it like an actual insert in the cloth not just the printed sticker…but love your work as always even with all the negative you shine a bright light on all the positives like a shining beacon of child like wonder and nostalgia…your the reason I started collecting mezco I appreciate you my guy thanks for all you do
Fan of Superman, and I’ve been looking for a Superman figure that had a smiling expression, and this one might be the one for me to get… if only it was just a tad cheaper. Its pretty darn expensive, I feel like if you cut off a lot of accessories and just kept the hands, lasers, and heads, this would be a lot cheaper. Still, really tempted to get this! And your review and the pics at the end REALLY help!
I've never been a fan of Superman but this figure looks pretty slick. I love the bright colors, and that they didn't shy away from a fully cloth costume, as opposed to the weird basketball / carbon fiber texture that is often applied to modern Superman designs. Still not sure that I can justify the price tag to myself for a character that I dont really care for, but the execution is still pretty tempting.
@@Bane520 SuperMan/Clarks lack of flaws is ironically his only and biggest flaw he has nothing wrong with him and therefore is a pretty bland character personality wise and is unrelatible
I've never been a fan of soft goods when it comes to characters that wear skin tight suits, but the heads and accessories on this Supes look SO GOODI wish mezco could sell the accessories by themselves lol
THANK YOU! I've been so excited for this figure and been refreshing the results on "Mezco Superman" hoping someone reviews it. Just started the video, can't wait to see what you have to say. Edit: Finished the review, you sold me on it! Great review as always!
Awesome review! All fears put to bed, this figure looks outstanding, especially with all the head sculpts giving so much variety of expression! Can’t wait to get him in-hand. Keep up the fantastic work! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
You seemed to have brought back the confidence of everyone who ordered this. Let the FOMO begin. Glad I didn't cancel my preorder. Makes a big difference when you can actually pose this figure properly before taking pictures. This will be my definitive Superman for the shelf.
Thank you for D amazing review. I almost canceled my pre order for this figure because of all the pictures and complaints but you really showed the great things about it ! Your always my favorite reviewer because you stay so positive! Please keep up the great work!
Dammit D, I wasn't in for this Supes until now hahaha. Man the way you break everything down in your videos is ALWAYS a delight. And the comic refs hit hard homie. I wonder how everything will hold up and I'm thinking about breaking for this figure. I love my Mafex but a smiling Superman is always wanted. Plus I love the John Byrne feel of him.
What bothers me is that chest symbol. I feel it’s too small and there should be NO black there. Just red and yellow. Makes it look like they just stuck a sticker on his chest.
I just ordered this the other day and I wish I had watched reviews of the toy beforehand, because this discrepancy between the MeZco previews pictures and the actual production release with the black lines was immediately noticeable and glaring. 😕
Great review! I’m not loving some of the changes that Mezco have made (such as the S symbol), but seeing all the accessories has made me glad to have pre-ordered this figure! Keep up the amazing work!
Great review and some awesome accessories! The full on heat vision reminds me of Supes stoically saying “Burn” to Mongul in “For the man who has everything”
Thank you for the review! You've really eased my worries about this figure! I'm still not pleased with the logo, but Mezco have REALLY delivered on a great superman this time.
D you sold me! The heads turned out much better than the pics showed. The logo isn't as bad as everyone says but I do wish it was a tad bigger. I didn't get this first Superman so I may grab this guy. Now I'm just waiting on the TMNT set
Part of me wants to thank you for the video the other part wants to blame you and request a couch to sleep on after my wife finds out I got another Mezco because of D! Lol great video!
Man I love putting these mezco figures next to Mcfarlane Mega figs like Lobo and Bane because it kinda makes them look accurate to the comics. Bane is all big and can pick up and bend the bat, lobo looks like a 7 footer next to superman and Mongul will for sure looks like a 8 footer next to this Superman. Can not wait to have this guy in hand.
Those head sculpts are a good interpretation of the character. A good middle ground of most Superman looks. I wonder if those heads would look good on a McFarlane figure?
I can’t wait I‘ve waited so long time to get my hands on what thought would be a definitive Super Man. I’m building a Mezco justice league , I’ve already got Sovereign Knight Batman, Flash, Aquaman, Wonder Woman, John Stewart Green Lantern, I did order Green Arrow from China but some one stole it on delivery, and I missed out on the Doctor Fate so unless they do a re-issue I’m out , now I just need for them to do a Martian Manhunter, Hawk-girl, I think they should have mad him a little taller I really like your first Mezco Super man
Ok D first of all awesome review. I am a big fan of your reviews and pics at the end.The figure itself is great. I really like all the accessories that he comes with. They only missed out on a head that shows his ice breath. I guess there is only two things that bother me about him. One I wish he was just a little bit taller. And the second is his chest embolum. I know it's nick picking but I it's not the same as the original images. Other than that he's great 👍.
This is the first mezco I have ever pre-ordered/ordered. The first (and second) MAFEX I ever ordered were the Hush Superman and Batman. This Superman brings some much *needed* head sculpts that other Supes figures have absolutely missed. I mean, really, how hard is it to get a smiling Superman head. That's like Superman's thing! That's what sets him apart from everyone! Cap...another boyscout but his face is partially covered. Spider-Man, full mask. Batman, half mask and more brooding. You take the top 5-10 all-time recognizable superheroes, and Superman will be the one with a face in full view and with a smile. To me, that is significant to him as a character. However...I am super disappointed in the height. I was hoping to have him somewhere between Cap and Thor. I don't think it'll look bad but I realized "My" superman would be in the image of Chris Samnee art and be a slightly bulkier chest and shoulders like the new Mezco, but a waist and leg slenderness of the Reeves Mezco. I'm not tempted to mix and match those two but that could be my ideal. Either way, I will be happy to get this Mezco figure.
Like others I was sus after seeing initial inhand pics of the fig but after this review its acceptable. Not the end all be all but def better then what i was seeing initially. Real judge will be having it in hand. I'm liking the light up function. Not digging the fact they changed the emblem from the promo pics. Fig is cool for now unless someone like muff comes out with a full blown Superman vs. Clark Kent. Thanks for vid.
I really like what I've seen of this figure save the chest emblem. I preferred the version they showed on the prototype. That one was larger and looked more “real world.” The black outlined one is too small looks like a cheap sticker. It makes it look like a Mego os something. Perhaps I feel better once I have the figure in hand.
Was your Mafex Hush Superman the original color blue or did you custom paint it? The color looks darker and so much better than the one I have. Thanks for the great review 👍🏼
I like the portions on this one. I thought it looked a bit like Christopher Reeve... until you bought out the actual toy of him... hahaha... I agree with you. The first one looks okay alone, but comparing with the other 2, the newer ones are better.
Mezco, imo the #1 best toy company for accessories and innovation. Like the laser head and the magnetic chest! Have never seen any company do that before, amazing.
First, great video review. Second, why does it not bother you that the shoulder muscles appear dislocated in any pose other than the "A" stance? Imo, they make his arms look like they were made for the Gumby claymation show from the 70's. Did Mezco's first Superman have the same problem?
While I'm still anxious to get this, I would have probably enjoyed it much more if that "Return of the King" KC Supes figure hadn't come out because THAT figure is incredible despite the lack of accessories.
It’s a good figure, but I still think the definitive 1/12 Superman is the Mafex Hush one. It’s also cheaper if you can still find it at retail. This could be an alternative for the people that missed out on the Mafex. 🤷♂️
Peace D- amazing my guy long time no talk to my brother you killed this review as always much respect to you king I appreciate you your reviews it always help my brother my Superman is on the way I can’t wait to get it many blessings to you my brother keep up the great work and remember to drink your water hahahaha peace
I was going to skip this superman as a superman fanboy as I seen some of these with ugly seams on the Cape with the blue bleeding through the red. I went to out local shop and the receptionist was posing it and taking pictures for their website. He absolutely sold me on it, especially in the awesome flight pose he had it in with the smiling face. He absolutely sold me on it.
I don't collect Mezco, but if I were, I'd definitely start with this one! That light up eyes headsculpt looks amazing! I even like the scale. Great review!
I have the 79 Superman from Mezco I prefer more expensive action figures
You should get the Mezco Damian Wayne Robin. It has to be rank among their best pieces.

I was legitimately just waiting for you to review this, hopefully mine will arrive soon enough! I can no longer wait!
That one leaked picture didn't do this figure any justice, while I wish it was a bit taller, it looks like a great figure, can't wait to get mine

@@ronnyd89 yeah the promotional shots were great. The end result, not so much. Definitely feels like a bait and switch.

3mins in and im absolutely GEEKING!!!! Sick friggin figure
Great review! I’m not loving some of the changes that Mezco have made (such as the S symbol), but seeing all the accessories has made me glad to have pre-ordered this figure! Keep up the amazing work!
I'm glad your review popped up on my feed first. I know your poses are going to be Poppin!
Great review and some awesome accessories! The full on heat vision reminds me of Supes stoically saying “Burn” to Mongul in “For the man who has everything”
Great review as always! I get mine on Tuesday and can't wait. Do wish he was a littttttle taller and bigger, but he still looks (d)AMAZING!
D, you got me again bro. Went and ordered him immediately after this excellent review. Can't wait to get him!
Thank you for the review! You've really eased my worries about this figure!
I'm still not pleased with the logo, but Mezco have REALLY delivered on a great superman this time.
Was skeptical, but as usual D you gave a great review. Keep up the quality work, man!
Cool review man keep the good work!!! You help me a lot when I have to decide when to pick a figure
Fantastic review, thank you. You convinced me to keep my preorder, he looks wonderful.
D you sold me! The heads turned out much better than the pics showed. The logo isn't as bad as everyone says but I do wish it was a tad bigger. I didn't get this first Superman so I may grab this guy. Now I'm just waiting on the TMNT set
Thanks for posting this. Very helpful.
I'm not feeling it. I'm glad I never redid my pre-order after a certain company went under. I really hate the black linework around his chest logo.
Great review, we need to see him with the Golden Age and Caped Crusader Batmans! I feel like his size is more suited for those guys
Awesome review. Killed any doubts I have about picking this up!
Been waiting on this guy. My order's been processing for about a week now.
I just ordered this. Impressed by the figure and accessories.
Awesome. Can't wait to have this grail in my collection.
The camera does him no justice. Mine came in yesterday and in hand he's beautiful
Part of me wants to thank you for the video the other part wants to blame you and request a couch to sleep on after my wife finds out I got another Mezco because of D! Lol great video!
Thank you for starting to show McFarlane's in your size comparisons. Great photos.
Just placed my preorder for it cause of your review! It’s an amazing figure!
This looks like a fantastic figure, thank you for reviewing and sharing your thoughts.
It's a great looking figure. However, I do wish that the S on his chest was a bit bigger and his cape was longer.
finally..... i was waiting for someone to review it and who better than @D Amazing
You know what else would’ve been fire a headsculpt that was blowing and they give a frost breath effect
Fabulous review of a fantastic figure!
Great review mate! I'm excited for mine to come.
GREAT REVIEW!!! I definitely want this figure!!
That looks really cool. Great review!
Man I love putting these mezco figures next to Mcfarlane Mega figs like Lobo and Bane because it kinda makes them look accurate to the comics. Bane is all big and can pick up and bend the bat, lobo looks like a 7 footer next to superman and Mongul will for sure looks like a 8 footer next to this Superman. Can not wait to have this guy in hand.
just had a great idea, we know that the chest area has metal studs, why not make a switchable magnetized shield S emblem for superman
Fantastic. Definitely redeemed the early photos that dropped.
fantastic review. love the excitement
Finally a review of this figure thanks for your opinion
This an a amazing figure! The light up eyes are dope
Those head sculpts are a good interpretation of the character. A good middle ground of most Superman looks. I wonder if those heads would look good on a McFarlane figure?
Amazing figure, this is and iconic and gorgeous execution from Mezco! Love the review, I really enjoy it!!!
This figure is the definitive superman! I couldn't be happier with this figure!

i stopped collecting mezco awhile ago, but i still had to pick up this guy.
I’ll admit, I lost faith for awhile but your vid made me glad I pre-ordered.
Would kill for a Lois and Jon two-pack.
I must not be a hard core Superman fan but I just don’t get why the black outline on the symbol is a deal breaker for mostly everyone.

Getting more n more excited for this figure
Lovely review. But I don’t understand how you like the superman being shorter than batman and Wonder Woman.
This might be the best superman figure I’ve come across cross I can’t wait to get this one and the whole superman mafex figure
Looking good, mang!
Hey great review. I've been a fan for awhile. I was wondering where you got the mouth swapped short eared batman head?
It ain't a D Amazing Video without something going on outside lol
I'm absolutely in love with this figure!! Awesome review ❤😊❤😊🦸♂️🦸♂️🦸♂️🦸♂️🦸♂️
Welp now I know what I want on my wishlist!
I like the portions on this one. I thought it looked a bit like Christopher Reeve... until you bought out the actual toy of him... hahaha...
I agree with you. The first one looks okay alone, but comparing with the other 2, the newer ones are better.
Would lover to have a new Flash revision and maybe a Mezco Cyborg!
I can’t wait for mine to arrive!
Mezco, imo the #1 best toy company for accessories and innovation. Like the laser head and the magnetic chest! Have never seen any company do that before, amazing.
Wow, he looks fantastic.
Been waiting for this
Will there be a matching release for Batman? Or was there already one? If I get sups I’d like to get bats as well
Can’t wait to add this guy to the collection.
lmfao fkin enjoy your nerdy quips like that santa one from the JLU episode lol. Def some prob with this fig, but I still love it
First, great video review. Second, why does it not bother you that the shoulder muscles appear dislocated in any pose other than the "A" stance? Imo, they make his arms look like they were made for the Gumby claymation show from the 70's. Did Mezco's first Superman have the same problem?
While I'm still anxious to get this, I would have probably enjoyed it much more if that "Return of the King" KC Supes figure hadn't come out because THAT figure is incredible despite the lack of accessories.
Can you swap the neck pegs so that the light up feature slides into the eye beam head?
How is that polystone Darkseid holding up after these few years after release? I want to grab it but I’m worried about it’s stability.
It’s a good figure, but I still think the definitive 1/12 Superman is the Mafex Hush one. It’s also cheaper if you can still find it at retail. This could be an alternative for the people that missed out on the Mafex. 🤷♂️
Hopefully Mezco will do a Deluxe Steel Box edition for Captain America.
Now I need to see a series of Captain America and Supes playing spades
Can the light up head battery be replaced? Or once it's spent that's it?
Great pictures!!!!!!
Ik people have a lot of problems with this but I like it I’m looking forward to it this will be my first superman figure
Peace D- amazing my guy long time no talk to my brother you killed this review as always much respect to you king I appreciate you your reviews it always help my brother my Superman is on the way I can’t wait to get it many blessings to you my brother keep up the great work and remember to drink your water hahahaha peace
I want the head sculpts and all the accessories but the figure itself just does nothing for me at all...
