I think it's the suit superman will use in the battle of doomsday.

It's the same suit his father wore when he was killed by zod, so it might be the same armor superman when he's killed by the new zod maybe

It won't appear.

first one in a long time. girl figures "don't sell" (read: they don't make one. if they do, they make it one figure per crate so of course it won't sell. also she's usually ugly, way off-model, and/or comes with a bunch of jetpacks and guns to make up for the leftover plastic)

Probably from the dream sequence, as herald lord Superman from Darkseid.

9 point articulation on a 3.75 inch. SW and Marvel figures are going down in quality and it appears as though the DC stuff is going UP!

Every woman in the marvel movies that had action scenes had a toy made of her.
Black widow, Scarlet Witch, Gamora, sif
The only exception to that was Gamora Sister not getting a toy ( ronan didnt either ) but then again she got a lego toy together with Ronan.

The other suits from the line are literally just their normal costumes.

This is something they had to make-up for the toyline because kids have already bought the Man of Steel toys and the costume in that is basically the same as that in BvS.

He's not gonna come out in battle armour swinging a Kryptonian axe at Doomsday.

It will appear in the scene with Mandarin and his Forklift of Death.

If it happens(it wont) then i'd say it would be a suit Bruce Wayne makes him to help fight Doomsday. it'd be similar to Bats' suit, but made specially for Superman. That would also show that trust has been established between the two, if batman is purposefully helping him become more powerful

>>77997385
I'm of the school that (power) armor is useless for nigh-invulnerable super-powered characters, and thus superfluous.

It is weird with Gamora since she is always the only one in the ensemble to be left out, for obvious reasons. But in Avengers merch Hawkeye is also usually left out as well and only Iron Man, Hulk, Thor and Cap make it, because they are the superheroes kids like.

>>77998820

Well it is. Zod was wearing it until he powered up enough to make it pointless at which point he ripped it off.

Is Jon Peters somehow still involved in this? I noticed Man of Steel seemed to conform to a lot of his Superman Lives demands, notably polar bears and a giant spider (world engine).

I've also noticed Hollywood hates wasting material from old screenplays no matter how shit it is so I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if this is the Eradicator/K/whatever from Superman Lives, just like how Terminator Genisys recycled tons of ideas from scrapped drafts for Terminator 3 and Terminator 4.

>Hollywood hates wasting material

If you've already paid a couple of million to artists, directors, and even actors who were then not used but had to be kept free to make your movie if it got funded, it's bad practice to start over completely. Nobody's seen the bulk of your dev work anyway, so you might as well salvage whatever you can; and of course, even if you do start over any creative team worth the time is going to learn everything they can about not only what has worked, but what was projected to work, what scripts made it closest to getting made, that kind of thing. So it's always going to echo back on itself.

It's not really worth the cost of producing a heavily articulated 3 inch doll because nobody would buy them at the price point they'd have to go to.

For larger toys or hotter toys, sure. But not for everything and not for the ass-end of an IP with Jimmy Olsen's dog's wife's owner: now with 51 points of articulation and real "I'll take out the garbage tomorrow" action.
