I picked up Barbie Superman for $15 for my daughter. Looking at it, I started wondering if the costume would fit on a better body.

I stripped down a Sideshow figure and voila!

I know it's a bit silly, but it'd be sillier for me to spend over $200 for the awesome, sold-out Hot Toys version.

In my opinion, this looks better in some ways than the DC Direct version. It's certainly more bang for my buck.

I admire your ingenuity, but Sweet Lord, that's scary.

Ain't it though?

The head is just a placeholder until the inevitable custom Routh heads are available.

Funny thing while I was putting this together.

My 3-year-old daughter came down and saw what she thought was her doll stripped and beheaded. She didn't scream or anything. In fact she was really polite, but I could tell she was horrified by the whole thing.
