If you have the Hush Batman, some dude on YT showed the swap. You have to swap the neck too because of the skin tone difference, but it looks pretty cool to have smiley Bruce on Clarkie's ripped bod.
fr like its my ideal superman design its just so perfect to me i wish we really got a friendly smile head like no smirk no smug all we want is a smiling happy symbol of hope face
I can’t wait for mine to arrive next month, this is exactly everything I had ever wanted in what I consider to be my definitive 6 inch Superman figure for my DC-Justice League display
Just incase this helps anyone: It seems pretty common amongst these (from articulation segments on reviews anyway) that the should joint is a little frozen out of the box. The socket for the shoulder connects to a ball joint in the torso which, if you get out, you can sand it down a little and give him more of a butterfly joint. You can see the intended effect more on Batman who has a ton more shoulder range since the joint has a better socket in the torso there. The only reason I realised is because my Carnage and black Hush Batman both had a shoulder joint frozen in a similar method, and it confused me that Supes' range was so little despite using the same mechanism.
I'm just super happy haha that they brought back the yellow symbol on the back of the cape I think they originally took it off during the animated episodes because it took too much work to draw it but I always missed it
This review gets me excited for their AzBats! And also the possibility that they might do the 4 "Reign of the Supermen" Supermans... Superboy, Steel, Eradicator and CYBORG SUPES!
I waited anxiously for your review to confirm what everybody was saying but I got the figure two weeks ago. And it is PERFECT. I've been longing for a perfect Superman and it sure checks all the boxes and sweet spots. He looks good with the Mafex Batman. He looks good with the Figuarts Hulk. He looks good with the Figurise Goku (closer in size). He's the real deal and your review just highlighted it all. That's 3/3 perfect figures for Mafex. Spider-man, Batman and Superman are pretty much the ultimate comic figures of those 3. 60-70€ isn't that expensive for definitive figures of the best and most popular heroes of pop culture. I am now praying for a comiv Wonder Woman or a comic Captain America.
Due to the pandemic I had to sell a few figures which wasn't a very good feeling...luckily I am doing much better and I just ordered this and the hush Batman figure.
That 1:25 bear joke is one of the many reasons I love watching Robo and the Fwoosh. Such genuine, light hearted, and hilarious moments that come out of the blue.
Nice review. This figure is good 👍. The cape is just right as the yellow symbol on the back reminds me of the George Reaves, TV series Superman. Thanks again for sharing your treasure.
Love mine due to the design, despite the qc issues. Sorry yours came with a badly painted S, visible glue and mark on the 1st head. I guess I got lucky.
I recommend you to pop off his torso and look for imperfections inside the plastic. Try to shave them to avoid scratching your figure. Mine came with stuff inside and it has a nasty scratch on his abs now :( I think the same happened to D-Amazing on his review. Oh, also mine didn't pass the arm test lol, but it only happens if you rotate the bicep too much.
Would love a repaint with a smiling head. I need a happy, confident Superman in my display; Batman already occupies the "brooding" slot. I hope it'll come soon because the hips in my DCUC Superman has not aged well.
By the time there were five reviews on TH-cam it was sold out everywhere, and I decided to wait to see if there’d be some common QC issues before I bought it. I’m so mad I missed out on this. I really hope they restock but I doubt it.
Probably won't get restocked, but Mafex is pretty good about reissues. They even fix QC issues or improve them with 1.5 or 2.0 versions. They just reissued a bunch of figures that came out years ago. I am sure this will get reissued again. Also, with how well this sold, I am 99.9% sure they will drop a variant up for pre-order this year. They wasted no time giving us a black/gray Hush Batman.
I wish the QC issues weren't so common with Mafex, I can't justify spending that much on a pre-order without knowing if I'm going to get something that'll just fall apart.
Yeah I love this figure so much. And I can not wait for the new mezco Superman coming out. This figure has it's flaws but man it's so good I'm willing to look past it. This guy goes so well with other darkseid figures. Especially the old DC classics darkseid.
Noticed the yellow "S" shield is missing the triangle at the upper part forming the serif and the lower part forming the reverse apex. Mafex should have included a fine tipped Sharpie to remedy that. Lol!
The left arm of mine would definitely fail the intro test. And the small head compared to Batman kinda irks me but all in all I am happy with it especially since I got it at half price.
Cool looking figure! I’m not sure how I feel about all these companies using soft rubber parts like crotches. They look great but I’m not so sure about the longevity of these pieces
Does anyone know what color red is used on the figure. I just got the re-issue and he’s got a paint chip on the trunks. Looking for a good match to fix it.
Ocht the legs are still thin and don't quite fully straighten. Was hoping they'd have fixed that from Batman. Still looks great, just frustrating that it isn't perfect when it's so close
Great looking figure, especially the colours. I just wish it came with another head that had a facial expression more along the lines of a traditional Superman. If not smiling, then at least a neutral expression. When I think of a traditional Superman, I don't think scowling or gritted teeth.
Oh Robo, you can't do me like that with the MAFEX arm test at the beginning, I literally spent yesterday being driven mad by their Carnage figure due to the loose left arm, which sucks since the rest is so good on that figure. Also at 11:19, damn that's a good looking figure, looks ripped straight out of Jim lee's art.
My Carnage has the arm issue too, BUT, my figure came with TWO left arms 😂 For some reason one of the arms doesn't has this problem and thankfully AmiAmi sent me a right arm as I requested. Now my only problem with that figure is that my right butterfly joint is completely stuck, maybe glued :(
@@nhyar Yeah it's not a complete deal breaker, plus it can still hold a pose and it doesn't just fall off when on display, but at the same time I feel like I'm on a balance beam whenever I pose that figure, one wrong move and it all goes to hell, so it kind of sours the experience. Still though at least it looks incredible.
@@tomtudorweaver1078 Definitely. That Carnage figure is one of the best, if not THE best ever released. Sadly, the QC issues stop ne from saying it's perfect. I love and hate that figure 😂
Great video. I love this figure and thank you for doing such a great job going over this MAFEX figure. Mine had some paint rub off the foot where the toe joint is located leaving a small blue area. Does anyone know how I could fix that?
That's how I feel about pretty much every Mafex release. Are they great figures? Absolutely! But are they worth the $80+ it takes to get your hands on one in the United States? That question is a lot harder to answer.

I do wish he came with a friendlier face option, but otherwise he's perfect.
Yup, but then Hush was angsty. Cheery head would have been icing.

Never know what will pop up on the custom market :)

My definitive new Superman figure, Mafex 3 for 3 now making my favourite figures of Spider-man, Batman and Superman.
I agree I think this Superman is the difnative Comic book Superman!
I agree. Hasbro's newish retro Spidey is nice, but that MAFEX Spidey is superb.
Looking at your username, I can only dream... Imagine if they made a KINGDOM COME line...
I love mafex, but those are 80-100$ figs and some qc issues are unacceptable for me any more. Untill they sort thier shit out im out of pre orders.
@@MateusDrake would be a dream come true, or even just a line dedicated to Alex Ross' work

No it's "Mafex Batman hush superman"

That mysterty machine photo made me laugh out loud 👏👏👏
Haha, I went looking for a more realistic vehicle, but the urge was too strong. Mystery Machine wins every time.

Thanks Robo! Appreciate you as always! Stay Blessed!!!
The review/reviewer that I've been waiting for.👌🏻
Now we need a definitive true 1/12 scale Doomsday.
Best Superman figure atm and I'm definitely getting his Black suit variant. Only way it could be better is a smiling head.
Got mine yesterday, just in time for the Superman & Lois premiere. I love this figure, it’s terrific.
Mine will be here Monday. Can’t wait!
This and the black Hush Batman are my grail rn
I love that they did the hush version. Imo its the classic look. I'd still like some chains or something instead as an accessory though.

Really a cool figure i have 13 Years, and have this figure you are the best , AND the versión black Superman
Awesome review! Just ordered this figure and cant wait to get him
Great figure and review! Looking forward to getting mine.
Would love a repaint with a smiling head. I need a happy, confident Superman in my display; Batman already occupies the "brooding" slot. I hope it'll come soon because the hips in my DCUC Superman has not aged well.
That figure looks dope! Great review!
Does the default head on yours have a mark on his cheek or is that intentional?

Should have better quality control for the price mafex charges.
I love your shirt.
Great review this is the best 1/12 superman. Try yriel yellow mixed with white scar citadel paints takes some mixing but it worked for me 👍
I want to sculpt a smiling face and a frost breath blowing face for this to make the definitive Superman
Fwoosh is my shit. Much luv, Robo and other fella. 🖖🖖🖖
Great review, Fwoosh!! I'll take an entire case. ❤️💯❤️
Mr Robo, solid review man.
I love that intro
I can't wait for Mafex Comic accurate figure THE FLASH!!! Best seller for sure!!!
Got mine 2 weeks ago and it’s my most favorite Superman figure ever! My only gripe is that the left side of the cape is an inch longer than the right.
I noticed the sides of the cape drape further than the middle but figured there was a reason.
I wish the QC issues weren't so common with Mafex, I can't justify spending that much on a pre-order without knowing if I'm going to get something that'll just fall apart.
Love your reviews, Robo.
Can you make Mafex Miles and Petes.B soon!!? 🙏 I've been waiting for 'em forever
Yeah I love this figure so much. And I can not wait for the new mezco Superman coming out. This figure has it's flaws but man it's so good I'm willing to look past it. This guy goes so well with other darkseid figures. Especially the old DC classics darkseid.
I wanna get this, but his face is too mean. I want a kind super boy face. Where's that big blue boy Scout?
Mezcos new one has a smiling head
Noticed the yellow "S" shield is missing the triangle at the upper part forming the serif and the lower part forming the reverse apex. Mafex should have included a fine tipped Sharpie to remedy that. Lol!
Wow the NECA toys ones look awesome
Nice T-shirt robo
it should say toyhub instead
Missing the two "triangles" in the S on the cape
Thanks for the review.✌🏾🔥
Nice shirt, robo
The left arm of mine would definitely fail the intro test. And the small head compared to Batman kinda irks me but all in all I am happy with it especially since I got it at half price.
I have one on preorder. I can't wait till you get the recently announced Marvel Legends Quasar
When Storm collectibles finally releases injustice Superman, we will see a good ole fashion Superman showdown!
Cool looking figure! I’m not sure how I feel about all these companies using soft rubber parts like crotches. They look great but I’m not so sure about the longevity of these pieces
When does it come out on bigbadtoystore I pre ordered it in December
I really want to love this figure but the headsculpt really isn't working for me.
I love Superman 😎
Turn the ball peg around on the neck and you’ll get more head articulation
Ahahahaha that shirt is hilarious
Nice shirt...
Does anyone know what color red is used on the figure. I just got the re-issue and he’s got a paint chip on the trunks. Looking for a good match to fix it.
I hear if you turn the neck peg backwards (it is angled), you can get him to look straight up when flying.
That's exactly what I did, and left it there. Still better forward than front.
@@TheFwoosh Damn. Too bad :(
I wish I'd preordered this.
Wish I preordered more than 1 for the prices I see him going for LOL
Ocht the legs are still thin and don't quite fully straighten. Was hoping they'd have fixed that from Batman.
Still looks great, just frustrating that it isn't perfect when it's so close
I like the packaging it looks lnice
Ooooooo he’s nice
This might get me to start Collecting DC figures
On the cape it’s missing a little part of the Superman symbol
Great looking figure, especially the colours. I just wish it came with another head that had a facial expression more along the lines of a traditional Superman. If not smiling, then at least a neutral expression. When I think of a traditional Superman, I don't think scowling or gritted teeth.
Test the paint on the belt under the cape to see how it holds.
I'm still waiting for my mafex far from home advanced suit spiderman to come out let alone get to my hous3
Awesome review im pretty sure he passed the test lol
YES YES YES
Be careful Robo,
*the bear knows where you live*
You said you didn't see like the stands I'm curious about which stands you prefer
Mezco makes them tough, and Figuarts seems a bit more fluid.
Never seen one of these with so many issues, very strange! Where did it come from?
Mafex/Medicom has a history of horrible QC issues with most of the figures that they release.
anyone else love that smell of plastic right out of the box
Just ordered one... I can't wait until it arrives! Hey Robo, where do you buy yours from?
I hope pre orders go up again for this Superman, I refuse to pay almost 300 bucks for this figure
Oh Robo, you can't do me like that with the MAFEX arm test at the beginning, I literally spent yesterday being driven mad by their Carnage figure due to the loose left arm, which sucks since the rest is so good on that figure.

@@nhyar My thoughts exactly, it was 99% the perfect Carnage figure but then someone said 'it's too good, screw up the arm.'
man I want mafex to make the Ultimates,
especially Thor
Ooo, that would be something different and ripe for some good 6-inch figures.
I hope Mafex don't stops at Hush and they give us a complete JL. Wonder Woman, a green lantern, the martian, Aquaman and a Flash.
And some classic villains. Bane, Darkseid, Lobo, etc...we can dream...
Perfection. Now please more DC villains even deathstroke and Lobo
I expect more for spending 80 bucks on a figure. Better QC is needed.
I agree 100%
Well now you can’t get it at all it goes for 200$
Great video. I love this figure and thank you for doing such a great job going over this MAFEX figure. Mine had some paint rub off the foot where the toe joint is located leaving a small blue area. Does anyone know how I could fix that?
Hey Robo He's sold out everywhere do you think that they will come out with more of them?
They don't reissue a lot unless it's super popular, but seeing "Hush Ver" on the front makes me think they will make different versions.
@@TheFwoosh I missed out on it and I was hoping that they would reissue it.
@@TheFwoosh thanks for answering Robo.👍☺️
Is there a way to put the ads at the end or beginning
The reissue I received has none of these issues other then the yellow they used.
please note, the mafex miles Morales just released. I have been waiting for like, 2 years lol.
Cannot find online anywhere , only pre order
I am looking to buy one on Amazon. But I can’t tell if it is the newer version or the original version? Does anyone know?
amazing figure, only got a few mafex, & theyre great, but not for a hundred bucks. if drops to $65 like Cyclops or Wolverine Id buy it.
I really hope they make a purple version of joker man
That paint slop is unforgivable at this price point, still cannot wait for my preorder to come in though!
Just add a smiling face and it’s perfect
I can't wait robo review the black series asajj ventress
Love your video's man but when 3 to 4 adds pop up during your reviews it can be annoying. Good review though
this does not look like a figure to spent $90+ on
Up close camera in HD will make alot of stuff look terrible
Agreed. People who bought it, sure are trying to convince themselves that it is.
That's how I feel about pretty much every Mafex release. Are they great figures? Absolutely! But are they worth the $80+ it takes to get your hands on one in the United States? That question is a lot harder to answer.
