Superman (1941): The Mechanical Monsters - Mezco 5 Points Deluxe Boxed Set

[CasualCollector]

I've been WAITING for this

[Ninjinister]

Ninety dollarydoos? Ugh, I was hoping these would be individually carded.

[emeraldnite]

Man, at that price point I just can't pull the trigger. Now if they did a Fleischer One:12 Superman--BOUGHT!

It's $80 on BBTS but yeah it's a chunk of change. I might get the Batman set and then decide on this. I have a couple of carded 5 Points but I haven't opened any yet.

Probably better than Super 7's pricing. What does $80 get you from them? Four reaction figures? Super 7 would ask $40 just for the robot.

[ShabbyBlue]

Still waiting for the Scooby Doo set!

Good point, I just don't like dropping all that at once, especially since I only need the figures and not all of the other gubbins.

[Sybok]

It would be great if Mezco released extra of the robot separately to make the "robot army" from the cartoon.

Also, waiting patiently (sort of) for Scooby-Doo.

Man. If they only had a Super Powers like cape

[Colossus Prime]

Not gonna lie, this set is so pretty and perfect I got a little choked up.

There's people that make and sell reproduction Super Powers capes on ebay, so if the plastic cape can be removed on this figure without damaging it too much, you could probably replace it with a cloth Super Powers style cape.

This is RAD.

It's just so expensive. But...I mean...a playset and figures based on a Fleischer Superman cartoon? I still think I'm dreaming. It's just too good for this world.

Cloth capes people. I’m sorry.....no, I’m not sorry, every cape for every scale should be cloth/fabric.

For what you get I feel more than happy with the price. I went with BBTS.

[JerpJerp]

That robot is pretty neat! I think I'd get that.

[WallySparks]

Wasnt there an episode of the old 1930s Superman cartoon where some monkey or ape grew giant size and kidnapped Lois or something?

Yes the 9th short "Terror on the Midway" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terror_on_the_Midway

The last of the Fleischer Studios cartoons before Famous Studios took over production

[Skoob]

Absolutely love the Superman figure. I'll grab one if it sells separately.

Agreed! Plus the scientist who invented them!

Yeah, I'm hoping for a single release at some point too.
