"Man of Steel" Superman in 1/6 by Hot Toys

HOT TOYS PRESS: "Man of Steel is one of the most anticipated blockbusters this summer. Directed by Zack Synder and produced by Christopher Nolan, Man of Steel will reboot the Superman franchise by giving audience a new look at the origin of the iconic superhero and his rise to become the protector of Earth and its people.

We are also excited to announce that the Hot Toys’ 200th collectible figure of the Movie Masterpiece Series goes to this one of the most well-known superheroes of all time. To celebrate this milestone, a 1:1 scale Kryptonian Command Key will be included with the Collectible Figure as an appreciation for all of our fans’ support over the years!

The movie-accurate collectible is specially crafted based on the image of Henry Cavill as Superman in the movie, featuring a highly detailed head sculpt, finely designed costume with embossed pattern and the iconic red cape."

"Man of Steel" Toys in Singapore

DISCLAIMER: I have no idea if any of these toys reveal any story plots or sumach spoilery-notions, so I'd just err on the side of "caution" and warn: *SPOILERS AHEAD* (if any, that is ;p)

Available NOW at your Toys'R'Us - or rather stores in Singapore, specifically in Tampines Mall where these were snapped (while I was there naively looking for "Pacific Rim' toys from Neca muahahaha) - a selection of blister carded and boxed action figures and playlets from Zack Snyder's upcoming "MAN OF STEEL" Superman movie!

And while the quality is nothing to rave about, the prices had me stumped - with the above-left pieces (including a closer look at Superman and a bare Zod) had a price tagged at the peg for SGD$49.90 each (*gasp*) but I did not ask anyone if this was a mistake or reality … Nevertheless, more snaps below to gawk at:
