Holy Grail might be easier ?

The 2 pack Supes has a wired cape. The standard version has a plastic cape. I believe there's also a rumored battle damaged variant too.

I don't really know how to feel about this fusion of modern movie and old school Super Friends aesthetics but I think it was worth a try, considering there's certain niche of people who love this line and people who do buy smaller figures at cheaper price.
Toy Habits touched on this and said Anaxon also lists a 5-pack with a mystery figure. Itll either be the robot or possibly Hawk-Girl. Mr. Terrifics vehicle is also coming. There are links to the items but nothing there, yet.

Its easy as anyone else. Email them and say cancel item number from order number and its done. It happens same day.
There was no snookering here. If these come with figs it clearly states it and this clearly states theyre not included. This isnt the first Super Powers item to have 2 versions. One with a figure and alternate deco and the other the opposite. I know its easier to crap on the guy but hes not conning anyone.

Keeping track of McFarlane's releases and variants is like looking for the Holy Grail. And just about as fruitless.
Yesterday we saw going up for pre-order at places like our sponsors BigBadToyStore.com and Entertainment Earth the new DC Super Powers: Superman Movie Fortress of Solitude Playset from McFarlane Toys.Since then there has been a bit of confusion as to whether the playset will include a 4.5" action figure of Robot #4. The Robot is featured on the packaging but down at the bottom of the packaging it says "Figures Not Included."
To make it more confusing their was not indication Robot #4 would be getting a single release. So then how would one obtain the figure shown on the packaging???Well based on overseas listings we first told you about back in December 2024, it appears their will be a GOLD LABEL version of the playset released that will include the figure.- DC DIRECT SUPER POWERS PLAYSET FORTRESS OF SOLITUDE WITH SUPERMAN ROBOT #4 FIGURE (SUPERMAN MOVIE)(GLD LABEL)
The Gold Label version of the playset has yet to be officially announced by McFarlane Toys and has not yet gone up for pre-order anywhere. It's not 100% clear which store the playset will be exclusive to, but their have been some indications that it might get released through Amazon.When more details about the Gold Label version become available we will be sure to let you know, but just BE AWARE that the regular version that went up for pre-order yesterday will not include Robot #4.

Because it's a deluxe ?
I almost thought they wouldn't get a pedestal or a stand, because they are only visible in the box (I was afraid they would fall like the barn door).
