Today's review will be the final figure from Mattel's DC Universe Series 6,
Superman (Recovery Suit Variant).
If you're looking to buy this DCUC Superman (Recovery Suit) action figure from
eBay,
click here . Now, on to the review.
The body is generally a reuse of body parts but the head is a new sculpt complete with mullet haircut. The figure stands at about 6 1/4 inch tall.
Really a simple figure, Other than the silver "S" symbol on his chest, and the silver around his wrists and toes, His uniform is all black. Not much to screw up in the paint department on this action figure.
The head sculpt is good and resembles Supes pretty well. Its paint job is pretty clean except around the ear where the black and skin tone colors tend to overlap where they shouldn't.
The picture above is just to compared to the
DCSH Superman action figure and DCUC Eradicator to this DCUC Superman Recovery Suit variant.
Don't expect this Superman figure to come with any accessories other than the standard collect and connect piece of Kalabak.
Since the body parts are mostly reused, you can expect the articulation to be the same as most other DCUC action figures as well. Mullet head Supes has all the standard joints. Neck, shoulders, biceps, elbows, wrists, abdominal, waist, hips, thighs, knees and ankles.
Despite the simple costume design and constant reuse of body parts by Mattel, this is still a decent
Superman action figure which collectors should enjoy. The other variant for this Superman action figure is with the same mullet head sculpt and the classic red and blue costume so you have two to choose from. They both come with the same Collect and Connect piece of
Kalabak.
Sculpt/Design - 8, Paint - 8, Accessories - 0, Articulation - 9, Fun - 8
Overall Score - 7.5/10
