    Idea for RA exclusive...

    I would really dig a Lex Luthor Power Suit variant. Anyone else feel me on this?

    I smell what you're cookin', and I'd love to see that variant offered. Great idea!
    "It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

        Yeah, that is very cool.

        Not to hijack your thread but anyone down for a Reverse Flash? I think that would pretty cool too.

          No way. Too much work. molding is what costs money. that chestpiece and boots are too unique.

              Funny, I was thinking that I would like to put Lex in a suit to make the business man version. I'm probably the only one who would take that over the battle suit.
              It's all good!

                  Yes! I grew up adoring Kenner's Super Powers line - and that is my favorite version of Luthor.

                  I think it would be really cool to one day be able to recreate the Super Powers line-up in Matty Mego, like what the DCUC has done. Slightly different demographic, maybe... but dreaming is free.

                    That would be really cool. Plastic would be ideal for the armor but do to cost you could always do something fabric like. I can't imagine how that would look or work though. Although the plastic used. May not be as much as you think. The peg warmer solution is matty collector so that aleviates that. Honestly id rather see other characters like the wonder twins, etc before another version of Lex.

                      Screw the Exclusives! Let the figs be available to everyone. I hate the "hard to get" ones.

                        I can see most of it being done in printed cloth and vinyl, but the chest/head enclosure would definitely need to be plastic for it to work, I think. It would be a pretty awesome-looking figure.

                          Given how ridiculously bulked up the armour has gotten in recent years, I had forgotten how slim and sleak the original Super Powers design actually was. It would be perfect for Megos. It would be great if they could make a few snap-on pieces for Luthor's armour.
