I preferred how the Mezco pic came out, it’s so natural looking with the fabrics, and the smile just helps a lot more lol
I think in the photo you took the mezco one look sweeter and the smiling head just adds to the Superman of it all but for articulation the Mafex wins

Even with the little that was done with the mezco's cape, it still looked much better. I bought it a few months ago, and its the best thing i own.
The Mafex is still my favourite but the accessories on the Mezco is phenomenal. But I know you complain that the Hush Superman doesn’t have a smiling face… look at the Hush comics, he didn’t smile in it. There wouldn’t be a smiling head sculpt because he never smiled in that storyline.

Actually he did smile in “man for tomorrow” which is essentially the same Superman

Man, your photography is on another level!!!
This is absolutely amazing figure! I thought it was going to be a doll (not a fan figure with soft material, except for the capes) but after getting it in my hand... just wow, perfect! Probably the best Superman figure after the Mafex one.

So glad you think so! I love this figure!
Exactly the video I was looking for :) Thanks for making this one
Such a tough choice. It’s a tie for me. I like them both for different reasons. All your points are solid. I didn’t think about not being able to use a wire stand with the soft goods. A draw is the way🙂

I’ve meet Jared a few weeks ago at a toy convention, and I’ve never seen a video on that before. (next year I hope)
It's still Hush version for me. Soft goods on this scale looks funky.
Wow Tons accessories and head sculpt Man U sold me I NEED one now 😩
wow that looks amazing, coolest figure ever for sure. I got to get me one.

Does the mezco figure look strange next to other Mafex figures or does he still fit in well? I want the mezco one but I’m worried he won’t fit in with my other Mafex
What a beautiful figure!
The figure is awesome, but my favorite part is hearing you laugh with excitement 🤘

Figures with soft goods look real nice but those without are better to play with.
I like the Mezco figure more, because I feel it does a batter job at capturing how I personally see superman. Such as him having a less chiseled jawline, less buff body, and a homemade look to his suit. It's just what I see more in superman.

What do you think about the BLACK around the S? That's my only real problem. I'd buy it, if not for that. I HATE when I see black around the S, and diamond. It should be just yellow, and red.
This 2 are great figures but looking for the photographer eyes and looking for realistic, the one with the soft goods suits ( think is the Mezco) looks more realistic with out the joints. That’s, for me, is a + 😉
My biggest gripes with this fig are the legs and the height. Mine and others had uneven legs, one longer than the other. In terms of height, it's a tad bit shorter than most mezcos. I'm lucky I had some experience modding so I was able to adjust those parts. Other than that, this is the definitive Supes
As Dope as that MaFex Superman (Hush) is, I'm going to have to put it at 3rd place for me. No. 1 would be the Mezco Superman (Man Of Steel), followed by the Amazing Yamaguci Revoltech Superman (New 52) at No. 2. And of course, 3rd place would be the MaFex Supes. Excellent video, by the way.

Hi Mr Jared. I 'm A Superman Fan Too. I also Have A Few Superman Figures Myself. I Don't Have Any New Ones, Just Recent Ones. I've Done Some Toy Photos Also.
Both of them look great. Have you ever checked the Beast Kingdom Superman?
My favourite Superman 1/12 is the one from Mafex, the Dark Knight Returns one, that is one magnificent Superman to me, and they nailed it for making Frank Miller’s art look good irl 😂😂
Just bought the Mezco Superman today! Now my Mezco Batman will no longer be alone Also, I 100% agree on the whole 'Superman Smiling Headsculpt' thing. It’s Superman, you gotta have him smilin! He’s a wholesome Boy Scout! That’s part of the charm!

Do you make your own cape ???
Can you do a full review of the amazing yamaguchi superman. He's pretty underrated.
Well, in the composition that you put, I think that the Mezco wins...! Feel more natural with the textile suit and the smiling face. 😃
For my money the Mafex Hush Superman is much better than the Mezco. I strongly dislike the soft goods costume, except for the cape. It just looks bulky and weird at that scale. The Mezco's accessories are super cool, and I like that there's a smiling head, but the Mafex looks more comic accurate (mainly because it's directly modeled after Jim Lee's artwork from Batman: Hush). Granted, that's just my personal opinion, and I certainly don't begrudge anyone that prefers the Mezco.

All great points! And I can’t disagree with you 🤔 thanks for watching!
The Mezco picture was just way more organic. It wins the photo op in my opinion.
both are great but I adore the mezco one. He does look a little robot chickeny but it doesn't bother me
All about the Mezco Superman!
The yellow on the mafex one frustrates me too much. I canceled my order on this one when it came out. I like the mezco one better. My one complaint with that one is howthe cape is bunched up in the suit.
I guess it's a matter of taste but ii grew up with Mego & GiJoe cloth figures so for ME PERSONALLY I really appreciate cloth figures ESPECIALLY in my preferred 1/12 scale figures...BuuuuT, I get how some don't like it bc of the hassle w/keeping clean, misshapeness, fading, fraying etc.
Personally, the way I see the Mesko is a better Superman action figure it represents the character in every way he smiles. He’s angry. He has laser, vision and cool accessories. They are specific to him. On the other hand would be the best generic. Superman is the best one to use for any display, and the one that can combine with most lines good with legends, DCC, DC icons he’s more versatile.
Tbh I like the mafex better sculpted wise cause the Mezco look kinda old tbh and does not look like has muscle
Do you have Superman from Injustice 2 I heard he's a great figure
I got this Psertoys Superman, very great version for an ok price. I needed a Superman, Mafex is hard to get and Mezco one is too expensive.
For Revoltech Superman Figure
I may be biased I have the Mezco it’s true about the feet articulation Mezco Wins
Mezco!!!!!
Hush Superman is top notch
I call it a tie ❤❤
I like both of the figures but personally I like the new one just because of how much extra stuff it has which just makes it that much better
The Mezco.
You forgot the dark night returns super man to compare to
Bello
Personally I think NECA's Superman from the 2-pack is the best Superman figure in the 1/12th scale to-date (even though it's a more like 7 inches). I feel like Mezco is too chunky/ugly and cloth goods at that scale aren't the best, also too many accessories that I just don't need. Not a fan of the thick black outlining on the front logo either. I loved MAFEX Hush Supes, but the lack of a "normal" head sculpt, plus the small-ish size and the looseness of my figure has bumped it down a notch for me.
Pls check Kingdom Come Return of the king Superman :)

@@sirdork730 I also wanted to ask. How does the Mezco figure look next to other non cloth goods figures? For example one of my favorite figures is my Mafex homelander. Does mezco superman look funny next to other figures who aren’t mezco? I hope this wasn’t too confusing lol.
yea i hate when people get free shit, and then whine for added function to the line they dont even collect personally. i mean the second mezco adds toe articulation to their figures and shit on all the looks of their pervious figures because of it, is the time i stop collecting them.
The mafex looks kinda bad in the photo but idk i guess mezco wins
The black around the S made me not want to buy it. I mean, WHY put the black around it?
The soft goods just make him look chunky. Not a good look
Nah, Mafex is still the definitive 1/12 Superman figure and will be for a while.

The hush one is amazing but gawt damn the accessories make the Mezco one the definitive Superman if you don’t care about any of that and store accessories away mafex is the go to but the led laser eyes , metal box and amazing accessories are hard to beat if you like taking pics the Mezco is a dream fig
You're kidding right The cape coming out looks disgusting
mafex quality sucks really bad great looking figures but the quality is trash and over priced i got so mad because few months ago i got a man of steel black suit figure and it was already broken smh
Mezco Superman figure is definitely better. Come on
Dont like it
No, I I think the best person to live your life by is Jesus Christ but that’s just my opinion.❤ amazing figure, and amazing photography. God bless.❤️🤟 4:09
