    Just got SUPER delivery!

    Today I just received my FTC Superman Series 1 figures! I already had Early Bird Superman which is SUPER and the other 3 are, too!

    Supergirl- Perfect! Always wanted a MINT Mego Supergirl and I finally got my wish! Right down to her little red slippers!

    Mr Mxyzptlk- IMPROVEMENT over original Mego Mxy! Like teen body and plastic purple boots! The imp he was always meant to be!

    Bizarro- Him has BIG head, but its not so bad! FTC nailed chisled Silver Age Bizarro head and I like Bizzaro No 1 necklace! Costume is same as Superman's except backward "S"!

    BRING ON Superman Series 2- Superboy, Clark Kent, Lois Lane, and Jimmy Olsen! CANNOT WAIT!

    SUPER JOB, FTC!

    Now waiting for my DC 2-packs!

    Out of curiosity, what does Supergirl's hair look like? The prototype looked like FTC's generic blonde head, and the original SG had a part on the side and the kind of curled bangs. Just wondering what the final product looks like.

        Disappointing, but not unexpected. Not a deal breaker by any means, but it would have helped make the head "Kara" rather than "generic blonde." Thanks for checking!

          Thanks for the info! Just how big is Bizarro's head? Are we talking as oversized as Alfred?

            Bizarro's head is bigger than Superman's but I do not think as big as Alfred's.

                      So I'm guessing SUPERGIRL'S NECK is sunken into the body 1/2 way like BATGIRL & WONDER WOMAN? I really HOPE FTC didn't send out SUPERGIRL figures on DEFECTIVE INCORRECTLT ASSEMBLED Bodies like their last 2 Super Gals?

                      So Teemu..........Does FTC's SUPERGIRL have a FULL CORRECT MEGO NECK or No? THANKS 4 any info!

                        So now it's the part of Supergirl's hair. Ok then.

                          I dunno. Personally I don't have an opinion about the part of Supergirl's hair, nor does the neck issue on the super-gals bother me; however for the collectors who value fidelity to the original Megos above all, it is a valid complaint. Has FTC commented on the neck issue anywhere?

                            My Myx says "Worlds Greatest VILLIANS" on the front, but "WG Heroes" on the back. Anyone else?

                            Also, Bizarro's head is big. They haven't fixed the problem.

                            Supergirl is a big disappointment for me. Her head/face just looks super weird, her hair is too poofy, her body looks like it's going to fall apart, and her shoe fell off so it's banging around in the clamshell.

                            Actually, the entire group of four is a letdown for me. Coupled with the fact they sent me a receipt showing they charged my card a full 7 days before shipping, I'm rethinking buying any of their product going forward. Regardless of retailer.

                              So, that's a charming, in-character detail you don't think FTC should have tried to replicate as a good, if not "exact," reproduction?

                              OK then.
