I am just starting a Batman/Superman Animated action figure colection (and boy am I paying the price, why didn't buy these darn things way back when?) My question what do you guys consider the "defintive" Superman figure from the series? Vision Blast, Power Swing, the new Quick Change Supes, or is there another one? Anyone know? I'm leaning towards the Vision Blast.

I have all the STAS and BTAS toys. The original Supes was the one with Superman Net Launcher. The figure itself is Supes with no frills attached at all. They also sold him in a four pack with Supergirl Metallo and Bizarro a whiles back. I recommend that rather than buying Metallo and Bizarro separately.

Found one, thanks TD! The Superman figure by itself is a hard-to-find item.

No prob. Feel free to ask any questions about merchandise from BTAS and STAS man.

The Quick Change ones aren't too bad either, I like the cloth cape better myself. The Space suit figure looks like the one Superman wore in the show, so it's a good one to have too...

The biggest problem with the Quick Change Superman is the Clark Kent disguise. Before the TNBA line finally put Bruce Wayne in a suit, he was always dressed in some kinda Nascar racing like outfit. The Quick Change Clark Kent makes him look like he's going on a camping trip (backpack and all that).

The newly-repainted Superman figure released through the Batman line is really cool. It's a Quick-Change Superman, but the paint job is darker to match his look on the show (the original one used a red and blue that were much too light). His skin tone isn't as pink this time around either.

Its ok. They released a Clark Kent figure with a Superman Convertible Couple. That is by far the best Clark Kent they've released. Unfortunately he's not in his work suit. He's wearing jeans and some sort of brown leather jacket. But either way if you want an accuarate Clark Kent you're best off buying a TNBA Two Face and throwing on a Clark Kent head.

On yeah I forgot. I agree the new Quick Change Supes is the closest they've ever gotten to getting his colors right.
