Glad I saw this. I cancelled my Amazon pre-order because it still said “July 3”. Placed a new order and it will arrive in the morning. I can’t believe I’ll finally have a 3.75” Brainiac (besides my customs).

Was there no coverage of what spin master had to offer? All i see are two picture Specter posted in here, and that's it? was there anything else ?

Not that I’ve found. I think the next merch we can expect from them will either be the Superman ‘78 (or Batman ‘89/Returns) retro line or the 4” Superman movie stuff. I imagine the latter is still under wraps per WBD.

Yeah, I was surprised there was nothing shown from Superman by Spinmaster or Mcfarlane. I wonder how much the change back to Mattel for the license had to do with it. Was it they made the announcement to stay in the news because they weren't showing anything at toyfair or were they not showing anything at toyfair so it didn't get lost in th3 license news?
I'm Not hopeful about Mattels tenure. I remember full well the feeling looking forward to see what they were doing for Man of Steel only to announce that that they were focusing on 6 inch scale. Yes, jurrasic park figures are 1/18, but really that's so they can produce in scale dinosaurs. DC is more character focused. No need to keep them small.

Well while we wait to hear about Superman movie figures, here’s a pic of the Non and Ursa I 3D printed to go with my old 4” Mattel Multiverse Zod and Reeve Superman. 3D printing is basically saving the hobby for me at this point.

Awesome! Great job painting them! Where'd you find the STL files, if I may ask?

Also, I totally agree about the 3D printing saving the hobby. That, and making my own dioramas.

Thanks man! They are on Cults3D, $17/ea. And they have Zod as well, if you need him. Gotta be honest, I had to do a good bit of dremeling because they aren’t tooled perfectly. But I was able to get all the joints to work with some patience.

Thanks! I have the same Zod as you. I plan on converting the stl files to an editable format and adding articulation to Non and Ursa before printing. The elbow and hip joints will change anyway, but I will mod the others so I don't have to dremel too much. Thanks for the heads up.

Does anybody want a spinmaster 4" Carapax?

Also have f5 Deathstroke, Red hood and first series Batman if anyone was interested.

Depending on the cost.

Antony916 · 04-04-2025, 11:13 AM

Found these on IG today. Hard to tell the scale but I believe they are 4'...but I could be wrong. Just wanted to share.

Yep just came here to post these. Here's the rest of the image, you've got Pops, McFarlane figs, a 12-inch Superman... Love it so far!

Anyone able to make out what's in that 4" multi-pack? I see Metamorpho, Mr. Teriffic, Superman, Krypto in some sort of cylinder thing? And maybe Lex?

snake5289 · 04-04-2025, 12:20 PM

When are these supposed to hit stores?

Captain Morgan · 04-04-2025, 01:59 PM

I hope that multi pack isn't those small 3-inch Page Punchers they look to small to be 3.75/4-inch figures.

Antony916 · 04-05-2025, 09:41 AM

Just saw this....

cool that's the one I was looking for

I really hope we see those Superman figures soon.
I've been trying to see if any of those tiny pics happen to have a Spinmaster logo on them

Haha same. The waiting is the hardest part…

tlasjr · 04-06-2025, 08:23 PM

I'm betting on 4/18. DC is doing a Superman day event. Makes sense to me to have it be the release day for the figures. Just speculation though. We'll that and I'm betting they tried to get the fifures to distribution centers stateside before the tariffs went into effect.

FoxGlove · 04-07-2025, 05:35 PM

Custom 3.75 Batman, MU body and f5 parts mainly. Almost no painting on this one so finally i have a batman with no risk of paint rub at this scale!

Awesome! What's the recipe?

suprdave71 · 04-15-2025, 07:00 PM

Anyone else who loves DC and also loves this scale ever shake your head at how poorly Spin Master has handled the license? McFarlane has put out more than 300 different DC figures over the last 5 or so years. I know they're different audiences, different target ages... but the stark contrast in SM's enthusiasm (and love) for DC is bizarre—and honestly, infuriating.

I don't know if Mattel will do any better with 1:18 DC figures. But frankly they can't do any worse.

snake5289 · 04-15-2025, 09:30 PM

They likely won't make any figures this size. I'd call that worse.
