Hey they made a Jor-El from Superman ReturnsThey will make a Zod... from Man of Steel.
Nope sorry not official don't get butt-hurt.
I am making this thread as i have a theory HT sees these and gets ideas. I think the outcry for so long for a CR supes helped.
We need a Zod! Period! It will sell very well HT, and be a great companion to CR supes.
Let your voice be heard here! And for all you facebook kiddies take it there as well.
In an age of too many Iron Man and Batman figs, let's not forget the real cool characters that will live on forever!
(and throw in Black robe Jor-El while you're at it please)
He could come with the Phantom Zone window thing, and a couple other accessories for Supes (say, a Clark Kent head with glasses) that would make him more desirable. I would probably buy Zod if the head sculpt were good, but frankly, I'm not sure he would be all that popular among collectors in general. Lex would probably be a better move from HT's perspective, though I'm not even sure he would sell. Beyond the 'Man himself, it's too old a movie for many HT collectors looking for their Predator or Iron Man fix.What would Zod even come with? A machine gun and a laser vision burned rifle?
Not enough. I guess they could give him a Fortress of Solitude base to extend the environment that collectors have from the Reeve Superman. Though, the crystal base that Supes came with is virtually useless to me. I kept mine in the box.
Zod would be a BAF.
This character does feel like a con exclusive more than a full release, if anything. That way, he would sell out anyway (assuming they don't actually produce 4,000 or so like they tend to do for con ex's). I can imagine a con 2-pack with Zod and Ursa, but Non would be pushing it I think
I doubt Jor-El is gonna happen again, since the Brando likeness seems to require its own license, and HT has already gone there.Simple, release two two-packs. A Zod and Black Suit Jor-El, and a Non and Ursa, then take a move right from their Iron Man hand book and rerelease Zod after he's long sold out, with the light up ring prison stand for himself and the other figures.

Superman is just not selling right now, Batman has taken over pretty much everything on the DC side, look how long the Chris Reeve one has been up, would make no sense right now for HT to make one, reguardless of how bad we want it
