Super-sized Superman

Being used to minifigures, which measure at 1.5 inches, this knockoff Superman figure at 3.5 inches feels like a giant toy. I'm pretty sure it is not a bigfig (big figure). Bigfig usually takes on a bulky character to incorporate unusual shape. See picture below for visual comparison.

The super-sized minifigure (pardon the negation of words) is packed in a colorful box with an instruction leaflet and character card. It comes with a crumpled thin, red cape and a 4x3 black baseplate with studs that can fit in a normal minifigure head.

Nice packaging

This superman version is from the movie, Man of Steel. The design is copied from the original lego minifigure.

The belt and insignia should have been golden but this knockoff painted them too yellow. The back of the torso has the same printing as the front, which is a relief.

The face has an alternate printing - one is serious and one is gritting his teeth. It lacks the red eyes face that appear in other knockoff minifigures and the original ones.

The cape is so paper-thin that I have to retrieve it from under the cabinet when the fan threw it off. It is also crumpled from being cramped in the packaging instead of having a separate packing.

The Krypton Son

The only piece I'm more interested in reviewing is the pair of blue legs. The back of the legs are designed wide open as opposed to the closed ones with gaping holes in the minifigures. Surprisingly, this mechanism works well when connecting with the large-stud baseplate.

Dead legs don't walk

This super-sized knockoff brick minifigure is not too bad to be in anyone's collection, especially for those doing brick scene photography or filming and for those doing customization.

The DIY lot has other DC and Marvel characters as well as Star Wars.

Battle at the Fortress of Solitude

Until then.
