Superman (Heat Vision) – Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
Leading the charge is a striking new variant of Henry Cavill’s Man of Steel. This figure captures the intense “Heat Vision” moment from Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Featuring the updated detailing common in recent McFarlane sculpts, this version highlights the raw power of the Kryptonian during his monumental clash with the Dark Knight.
Collectors have long requested more “powered-up” variants, and the translucent or painted eye effects on this Superman are designed to stand out in any display. As part of the McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse pre-orders launching this week, this figure is expected to be a top priority for those completing their Justice League movie rosters.
Superman – Superman Returns
In a move that surprised and delighted many, McFarlane is reaching back to 2006 to honor Brandon Routh’s portrayal of the Last Son of Krypton. The Superman Returns figure is a testament to the enduring legacy of the character’s cinematic history.
This figure features the iconic, smaller “S” shield and the deep maroon tones of the suit seen in the Bryan Singer-directed film. For fans who grew up with this version of the character or rediscovered him during the Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover event, this release is a must-have. It bridges the gap between the classic Christopher Reeve era and the modern era, offering a unique silhouette for the toy shelf.
Supergirl (2015 TV Show) – Deluxe Theatrical Edition
Rounding out the April 9th announcements is the Girl of Steel herself. Based on the 2015 Supergirl TV show starring Melissa Benoist, this “Deluxe Theatrical Edition” figure brings Kara Zor-El into the fold with premium packaging and accessories.
While the “Theatrical Edition” branding often refers to the higher-tier presentation, the figure itself is a love letter to the fans of the CW series. It captures the hopeful, bright aesthetic of the show’s early seasons. Given the popularity of the “Arrowverse” figures previously released—like The Flash and Green Arrow—Kara is a logical and welcome addition to the collection.
