Superman Robot

Custom Minimate figure Custom Minimate figure

In the Gold and Silver Age of comic books, Superman was really, really smart. He was so smart that he built robot duplicates of himself that had his super-powers. Superman would have them patrol for crime, perform hazardous tasks, and help convince Lois that Superman really isn't Clark Kent at least twice a week.

In modern times, Superman isn't smart enough to create robots by himself anymore. But Superman robots still pop up, like in this Justice League of America story, which inspired this particular custom.

The Recipe

The Robot Superman is made from a repainted Superman Minimate. His hair comes from a C3 Superman. Robot Superman's face is made from a water-transfer decal, while the "S" emblems on his chest and cape are digital printouts.
