This year marks the 40th anniversary of Frank Miller’s iconic comic book miniseries, Batman: The Dark Knight™ Returns. In this classic story, Superman has become a clandestine operative for the government. When the Dark Knight returns from his retirement to clean up Gotham, a clash between these two titans is inevitable. Sideshow and Hot Toys are excited to present the Superman™ Sixth Scale Action Figure based on his impressive appearance in Batman: The Dark Knight™ Returns.
This sixth scale action figure features two newly developed head sculpts that bring the character to life. The first captures his stoic, authoritative expression, while the second features a battle-damaged, gritted-teeth expression with blood-paint detail. To take realism to the next level, both head sculpts are equipped with separate rolling eyeballs and a specially applied UV luminous reflective effect, allowing collectors to recreate Superman’s menacing heat vision under UV light.
Detailed to capture the distinctive and rugged art style of the comic series, this figure stands approximately 34cm tall, featuring a newly designed muscular body that perfectly portrays Superman’s massive physique. The costume is expertly tailored, comprising a blue elastic fabric material that highlights the muscular form, complete with the iconic red and yellow Superman symbol on the chest, a yellow belt, and a bendable wire embedded red cape embossed with the yellow Superman symbol for dynamic flying poses. To recreate the brutal battles and dynamic flying scenes from the comic, the figure comes with six newly developed interchangeable hands, such as fists, claw-presenting, and flight gesture hands. To enhance display possibilities, the figure also comes with key weapons from the comic, including a kryptonite arrow and a damaged sonic gun. The figure is completed with a specially designed display stand with the comic series logo.
