Has anyone purchased one of these DC Comics Crazy Toys Superman Figures? They are described as Statues but they do have some movement. They also come with a Cloth Uniform and Plastic Boots which would be the main reason that I am thinking of purchasing this Statue/Figure, as the price is low enough to to buy it just for the Costume alone. If anyone knows anything about this product or the company in general, please let me know. THANK YOU!:thumb

It's not a statue at all (even tho Crazy Toys does make those as well). The Supes is a rather decent knock off of the sideshow 12" figure. Body is a standard eBay China muscle body, not the Sideshow body. Does not include all of the heads that come with Sideshow's, but what's there is pretty decently made. Clothing is well done... better than my mattelbsuperman.

I live in the Philippines and there are lots of this in a nearby flea market. Also saw Crazy Toys Wolverine, also a knock-off of Sideshow's version.

I have one, and wolverine coming.

Head is awesome, suit is awesome, body, well, much less. Not a bad body but I suggest replacing it with another and keep this one for more mundane figures. For the price, it's highly recommended though.

Thanks everyone! I tried looking online but found nothing. I guess I wasn't looking in the right place! As for price, the lowest price I found was on AliExpress.

.
Two things. First of all I really don't want to get into all the licensed vs unlicensed, and recasting, issues etc. which I treat on a case by case basis, but this is pretty much as flagrant as it gets, total clone, the absolute exact Sideshow headsculpt and making no bones about it. And secondly, the only thing I really liked about that headsculpt in the first place was that it seemed specifically designed to achieve cool effects by swapping the 3 versions "normal," "angry," and "heat vision." It feels kind of incomplete as stand-alone. But yes, I do understand this is much cheaper than the real one.

I'm curious how easy it is to remove the outfits. The brown and yellow, in particular, looks like he's wearing his father's suit.

Well, I expect that I'll have to put a slit in the back, which I can close with either snaps or velcro.

I bought this one and then bought the real thing two weeks later:knock it's fine and the paintjob may be better but the body is shorter than the original I think, haven't made an on hand comparison

I wish they would've made a knock off Man of Steel or BvS Superman. I would snap that up in a heartbeat.

I got the wolverine and a while back I tried to post photos but couldn't do it
But I love it I swap out for the muscular body the biggest one
It fills out the outfit great

I received their Wolverine 10 minutes ago, and boy, I'm impressed. It looks really good. Even the arms look good. Too bad the chest and legs are too thin. I think that I'll keep him with this body but will bulk him up with epoxy.

For those who want the legit Wolvie, buy the Sideshow, it's an awesome figure. If like me you want to go cheap, the KO is really good too.

Does anyone have any photos of the actual DC Comics Crazy Toys Superman that I will receive? I just had a conversation with someone who said that the photo in the ad looked nothing like the item I will receive

Seems to me Crazy Toys used the real Sideshow Supes in their ad photos.
1. The actual body is smaller than the ad photos, adding to the disproportion of the head and body.
2. The ad pics shows the cape tucked nicely inside the neck opening like the original... while the actual cape is visibly just stitched on.
Doesn't show much on the pic because i snipped off small bits of the protruding red cloth.
3. and worst of all are the shafts of the boots which have flared top and bottom openings same as their Batman and Wolverine KO's. :doh

What's surprising is the quality of the costume, the "S" emblem and cape... the material just looks and feels great! Heck i like it even better than the snaggy one on HT Reeve!
