SNEAK PEEK: 1/4 Scale PREMIUM FORMAT SUPERMAN
Sideshow Collectibles has a great article on their website about sculptor Andy Bergholtz and his work on their upcoming Superman 1/4 scale Premium Format Figure. This looks like it could be the definitive Superman statue!
Andy Bergholtz Working on the Superman statue
“It’s not a specific comic book version,” he says. “That is, the design isn’t based on the artwork of any single artist. Our idea was to just sort of draw a little from one artist, a little from another.”
Illustrator Kris Anka’s concept art for the figure lies propped up behind the sculpt. In it, the Man of Steel stands wrapped in a frozen fog atop an icy pinnacle of the Fortress of Solitude, eyes stern and burning red, his brilliant blue uniform and billowing red cape the only colors evident in the harsh arctic environment.
The figure will come with two head sculpts. “He’ll have one staring-into-the-distance portrait,” Andy explains. “The other one will be looking down, like in the Anka print, with very stern eyes, like he’s getting ready to light something up with his heat vision. After working on Batman, it’s rather exciting for me to be working away now at another iconic figure from the DC Universe.”
