    12" Superman body/suit combinations?

    Last week I picked a 12" Superman suit and boots (from France if that helps). Now I am looking for a body. The two body styles vary in (chest) size. Does anybody know if the suits were altered at all to accomodate the different size. Obviously I want to make sure I am on the lookout for the right style body/head.

    Thanks in anticipation.

    The suits would likely be slightly different, as there is a distinct size difference between the two bodies, and the suits have a skin tight fit on both versions. I know the standard bodied Supes was released in France, but not sure if the muscle body version was.

      Yeah, that was my understanding too from the galleries. My thoughts would be to look for the comic version rather than the movie version especially when reading this 'Stop the Presses, a new discovery! In France, Pin Pin Toys released the standard comic headed Superman in the Movie box.'
