The reviewer notes that the updated version with a cloth cape is an improvement, but argues the figure is ultimately held back by an outdated mold that features skinny legs, single-jointed elbows, and awkward proportions. While they consider it a great-looking shelf piece, they conclude it falls short of being a definitive Superman figure.
The reviewer praises the figure's sculpt, paint application, and articulation, highlighting the large, easy-to-swap hand pegs and excellent range of motion as standout features. They conclude that the figure provides a fantastic balance between high-quality design and an affordable price point.
The reviewer criticizes the figure for poor articulation, specifically noting the inability to tilt the head for flight poses, the lack of double-jointed elbows, and limited ab crunch. They characterize the figure as mediocre and unworthy of the iconic character.
The reviewer describes the figure as a great addition to a desk or display, praising the inclusion of swappable hands, a display stand for flight poses, and its overall mass appeal. They note that the figure frequently garners compliments from others.
