The weekend has finally arrived.DCfans believe a man can fly becauseSupermanis in theaters. TheJames Gunnfilm starringDavid Corenswetas the new Man of Steel has seen a ton of merchandise in the lead up to the first cinematic DCU adventure. This has included apparel collections, Funko Pops, and more. Now, thelatestSupermanfigures come from Thrilljoy.
A part ofThrilljoy’s PIX! Vinyl figurecollection,Supermanwill soon be joining the relatively new collectible company’s list of franchises.So far they’ve done figures forThe Corpse Bride,The Creature From the Black Lagoon,The Conjuring,Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,andThe Lord of the Rings. These are just some of the popular brands they have figures for. Now, Thrilljoy has their first wave of PIX!Supermanpieces up for pre-order. This includes the Man of Steel,Lex Luthor, andKrypto the Superdog. Superman will be the main figure while Krypto will be the “Chase” variant, and Lex will be the “Super Chase” variant.
A Metropolis Full of Merchandise
Alongside these new Thrilljoy PIX! figures, Superman has been everywhere when it comes to marketing. The Man of Tomorrow already has two waves ofFunko Pops, whichinclude other characters from the film, like Hawkgirl (Isabela Merced), Guy Gardner’s Green Lantern (Nathan Fillion), and Mister Terrific (Edi Gathegi). If PIX! reminds you of Funko’s products, that’s because Thrilljoy was co-founded by Funko’s former CEOBrian Mariotti. Funko has dominated this figure scale for almost two decades, especially where DC is concerned. Some friendly competition is welcome in this market.
On top of Funko and Thrilljoy,Supermanalso got brand-newDC Multiverse figuresfromMcFarlane Toysand a premiumHot Toy figurefrom Sideshow Collectibles. Corenswet’s bright supersuit has been perfect for the toy treatment, with the film’s merchandise flying off store shelves. It’s going to be exciting to see what new DCU products will be made in the wake of the film. Thrilljoy will most likely be back with moreSupermanwaves. Hopefully heroes like Hawkgirl andLois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan)will be in their future.
