I'm itching to see some Samurai Showdown stuff!

They need to make Superman's head bigger, it looks way too small! Just like Ryu and Ken. Totally puts me off for those figures. I'd love SF2 figures but I'm skipping the whole line since those look bad.

I don't mind the smallish heads sometimes because it's an effective shorthand for conveying a powerfully built character. But not the case here and not feeling this Superman...it almost feels like he's from a different line than Storm's other DC figures. In fact, I think Neca's recent Superman looks like he'd be a better fit with the Storm DC guys.

Small heads are part of the sf2 experience. All the Japanese art rendered the characters in over muscled bodies with tiny heads. The various anime and manga took it to the next level. As a teen I the 90’s, I used to laugh my arse off coz I’d see Ryu portrayed with more bulk than Hulk or juggernaut.

Storm collectibles thankfully has better proportions.

That makes me wonder how they're going to pull off Darkstalkers since a lot of that art style really pushes the tinyhead/big body,hands&feet aesthetic to the extreme.
