See: DC UNIVERSE CLASSICS WORLD'S GREATEST SUPERMAN MOVIE ACTION FIGURE 6 IN' RARE | eBay

I have seen these pop up on eBay from time to time over the last few years, first around the time of a rumored Bizarro / Superman 2-pack that never came to fruition.

Anyone know the story behind this fig? Will it see retail release? One previous auction ended at $255.

^^ I heard the same story as you, it was part of an unproduced 2-pack with Bizzaro. Yet, I also heard another story, that the figure was supposed to be part of a Super Frinds 5-pack, featuring this Superman, as well as Samurai, Black Vulcan, El-Dorado and a re-release of the Lex Luthor from the Gotham City 5-pack.

Looks nice but way too expensive for a recolour.

Thats Supermans Color. Why in the Hell cant Mattel paint him the way he should be on all the figures. It fucking boggles the mind.

I agree. I always called this head sculpt "Jim Thorpe Superman," but he is very Cain-y.

Yes, Lois accidently washed Superman's super suit together with a load of whites. Sheesh, women.
