When Superman punches a button under the chin, the mouth of the monster flies open, his chest explodes, and slime runs out. How did something this violent get made?

When I was a boy, the most we had was dino damage in Jurassic Park toys. Before my time, they had a He-Man toy that took damage to chest armor. Is this acceptable for figures now?

>>11456532 (OP)
fuck off faggot dc shill street shitter. No one cares about the exclusive ollies line of figures.

Kill yourself sheltered faggot

Eating fake alien guts? That's cute.
EVEN IN 2006 I'M STILL BURNING CHILDREN FOR MY DELICIOUS TREATS.

>>11456562
In all fairness, the alien is already dead. Otherwise, it would be an alien vivisection playset. And it's the kid doing this to a dead alien, not Superman making a living monster's guts spill out. It isn't like those 90s Crash Test Dummies that flew apart or even any villain figure that falls apart UNLESS you can find a two pack where the action feature is clearly "The good guy kills the bad guy." Like yeah, the T-1000 exploding figure is violent but you can make anything explode him.
>Rock'Em Sock'Em Robots
Not the same. They didn't bleed.

Yet another episode of "they see themselves in the bugs/demons"

>>11456654
There's a Baby Alive doll that makes wee wee for real. There's also stretch screamers that ooze, so you squeeze it and it writhes in pain in simulation

When I was a boy I had Captain Alexi.

Star Wars AotC line had Geonosians that were completely dismembered, amputee Anakin, and a decapitated Jango Fett figure.
RotS had crispy Mustafar Anakin.

Desperate shilling of an incoming turd hahaha

>This is so horrible. How would you feel if you got punched and all of your guts spilled out? The monster's life matters too and you're heartless if you don't think so. It's called having empathy and being a good person.

>>11456771
Wow, look at all that paint, must've cost them a fortune to make those

it's the resident schizo. he's been going around in most threads in /toy/ shitting them up. ignore him

stranger still it's bug parts

My action figures were stabbing each other all the time, this isn't a big deal

No idea what you're talking about but... Superman is going to suck and hasbro and disney are also garbage!

>>11456834
It has four points of articulation.

aside from the violent toy perspective, I was shocked to see this "spoiler" in the store last week.

it's fine for DRAX to violently explode the insides of a monster. might even be funny. but NOT SUPERMAN. he should be better than that. there's no reason he couldn't just pick it up and fly it to the mountains, or whatever. why does he need to explode it? even if this scene results in him having grief over his violent act, and he resolves to be better, they shouldn't have made a "fun toy!" out of the moment.

my expectations for the new movie plummeted to zero. it's le-edgy-dark all over again, but with a colorful snark filter this time. ugh

>>11457320
No one cares, everyone wants omniman and homelander.

>>11457358
which is why we have Omniman and Homelander

Superman -himself- AS "Superman" should not become the parody -of- himself.

this toy out of the context of the movie (and I fear even IN the context of the movie) makes Superman look like a menace exploding the guts of the bad guy, a bad guy who looks to be bipedal and perhaps intelligent, even if only a little bit

if you want Superman blowing up monsters not giving two F's, then it should be the Homelander movie instead, and have Homelander blow up stuff, and do not sell that toy to kids as a funny "ha-ha look at the monster's goopy guts! whee!"

>>11457440
Yur a faggot lol

>>11456532 (OP)
At my local Walmarts this toy went on clearance almost instantly and most of them are still sitting there a month later. Just saw em today

>>11456834
To be fair, Resaurus has been defunct for many years.

>>11457093
NTA but does the (skull)head not swivel?

>>11457762
It's doesn't, but that's because it's also removable like his skin and slots into a peg in the torso.

>>11457767
I can forgive the 4POA if it has that kinda gimmick along with those gory details. I barely saw the Virus stuff in any stores when it was out and don't remember this figure in particular. Might hit up Ebay now.

>>11457320
I can’t tell whether you’re a pearl-clutching boomer or an overly-sensitive zoomer…

>>11457848
just exhausted with the many re-attempts at making "a new Superman! it will be good this time!" and watching them destroy the opportunity

I'm not going to write an essay on "what Superman should be" nobody wants to read that. but that essay would include "he doesn't blow up goopy-chests of probably-intelligent monsters"

>>11457890
Not even counting Elseworlds and Injustice bullshit, Superman has killed dozens of times. Fuck, in the Donner movies he depowered Zodd and co, and then dropped them down a fucking chasm.

>>11457890
Are you saying people would prefer a movie where he’s a goody-two-shoes who never kills anything? I mean, did you complain about the Jedi disemboweling swarms of sapient bug-people like in >>11456785 ? What about the Chitari all dying via their brains 404’ing in the first Avengers?

>>11458150
>Are you saying people would prefer a movie where he’s a goody-two-shoes who never kills anything?
That would be Superman, yes.

>>11458168

>>11457948
>>11458150
We JUST went through 12 years of debates of Zod's snapped neck. Half the criticisms over MoS was how Superman killed Zod.

>>11458150
yes. goody-goody Superman is the ideal we all strive for, even if it's not realistic

it's like how Star TREK is a hopeful future where people are nice and talk about their problems, vs Star WARS where it's cool to cut off a Wampa's arm.

it's totally fine for other space shows to kill the alien monsters, but Star Trek is the show to stop and say "let's try and understand this monster instead" just like it's fine for Drax to burst a monster's goopy chest, but NOT Superman.

>>11458190
Yeah, so? 1st appearance Batman killed too. We've moved past that.

>>11458251
I'm so glad he was found by simple, kind-hearted farm folk to raise him to be a good ol' boy. They made sure he knew that he was above the plights of humanity. Just think, he could've been found by a retarded communist instead and spent his life laser-eyeing the baby to death in every pregnant woman he came across. Good thing the Kents instilled the correct morals.

>>11458266
I once had a good debate about this, where I pointed out the Kents were the true heroes of the story, since it was they who raised Clark to be a good person, and the Kents are just normal GOOD people, trying their best in a harsh world. just like "you and me"

my friend countered by suggesting Superman was inclined to be good, by nature, and even if he was raised by evil people, he would just instinctively know what was right, all by himself.

>>11458280
I mean I think that plays into the general hope that good people are out there to help create something as pure and hopeful as Superman.

Especially on Earth.

Americans are way too puritanical for their own good.

>>11458282
exactly. my ultimate point in the debate was the "meta" argument that the guy who created the character of Superman was himself, just a regular guy, and trying to give the world a positive, hopeful hero, and thus the creator guy was the true hero! (whoa! lol)

>>11458251
Year 2 Batman killed as well. It's funny how all these heroes never kill, except for the times they do kill, but we'll ignore those times so we can keep saying that they don't kill so that we can complain if they do kill in the newest movies.

>>11456532 (OP)
If you remember dino damage then you should remember Spawn figures from the 90s invading the shelves with blood, gore and breasts.

>>11458324
Because those times are crap and nobody likes Year 2 Batman.

>>11458335
Todd McFarlane seems to

>>11458345
Yes and see where that's gotten us?

>>11458363
Better than the marvel legend treatment Mattel is gonna be making.

Enjoy your easy to find but not-wired capes.

>>11458280
Tell your friend to read Red Son.

>>11458504
lol we were both like "didn't they do that in a book already? A what-if, where Superman crashed in Russia instead of America?" but neither of us had actually read it

we both concluded that, while on some levels it could technically count as "official" Superman, since it was professionally published and all, that it could also be just one artist's fan-fiction. similar to how Disney F'd up Star Wars in an official fan-fiction way (not true to the core spirit of the original creator, but still, technically, "official")

unless Red Son WAS done by the original creator, I don't know if it was or not...

>>11458280
Your friend’s argument falls flat when you consider that there have been villain Kryptonians. It’s not as though Supes’ kind were incapable of lusting for power, specieism against other sapient races, political sabotage, etc. even if you don’t count Red Son, there’s always the Justice Lords and other alternate timelines to prove that Superman (and the other JL) is capable of becoming a villain despite his upbringing.
