Christopher Reeve as Superman 1/4 Scale Action Figure

Pretty much the only time I’ve been a real Superman fan was in the year or so preceding the release of the 1978 Richard Donner film. I seem to remember DC Comics running a mini-feature in the back of some of its comics in 1977 about the casting of Christopher Reeve as the Man of Steel. It’s sad that the two Donner films are still the only decent contemporary versions of a live-action Superman film, even though the problem really has as much to do with the character itself as anything else.

This 1/4-scale action figure from NECA does a nice job of capturing Christopher Reeve as Superman.

Superman Classic Costume ArtFX+ Statue

Another statue in ArtFX’s line of DC Universe statues inspired by the original Super Powers line of figures. These are all 1/10 scale (about 8 inches tall) and only cost $29.99 each.

It’s been awhile since I picked up an action figure-related item, but I might have to start collecting this line when it comes out in August 2015.
