Taking a closer look head sculpt, McFarlane nailed the likeness of Christopher Reeve, even down to the squiggly hair that runs over his forehead. We can also see the wired cape and how that fits into his collar as the cape looks a lot more fluffy than the official images.

Here we can see the incredible packaging for this 1978 Superman The Movie figure! I love the rear of the package that features Christopher Reeve himself!
This version of Christopher Reeve looks amazing! They did a spectacular job at the face sculpt! He also comes with a wired cape and multiple alternate hands. One of his hands includes a piece of kryptonite being gripped in the hand! I just love this version of Superman and he came out stunning!
