Anchoring the second wave
of DC Universe Classic figures are two versions of Superman. This time we
have him as the electric Superman, in this case Superman:Blue. First seen in
Superman #123, this version of Superman appeared after his powers changed
drastically and he turned into an electrical being forced to wear a
containment suit.
Details at Superman Homepage. This new Superman is very close in
headsculpt and body sculpt (without the costume detail) to the other DCSH
Superman figures previously released.
The figure is packaged with two
detachable 'electric aura' attachments which go on the arms. They can be
placed anywhere in the arm or in the body, though it's recommended you
massage them inwards to make them tighter before applying. A third
attachment is attached to his back, which seems to not be meant to be taken
out, but it can come off with a bit of a tug. This piece can still be
attached later on just like any regular attachment due to the peg hole in
the back. It is interesting to note that the headsculpt on Superman Blue
perfectly sets him apart from his other self, Superman Red, giving each
figure more than just a color-change as a distinction, but making them
separate characters as well.
Worry not! Both
Superman figures are as available as each other as they are packed evenly in
boxes. Both come with the same piece to build Gorilla Grodd. |
