Sideshow Collectibles, in partnership with Iron Studios, has opened pre-orders for the Superman Absolute 1:10 Scale Statue, a new premium collectible inspired by DC Comics' Absolute Superman, one of the defining titles from DC's Absolute Universe which began publication in November, 2024.
Absolute Superman reimagines the Man of Steel from the ground up, presenting a version of Kal-El shaped by a far more unforgiving world. In this alternate continuity, Superman arrives on Earth as a young outsider in a society dominated by industrial power, private militaries, and deep social divides. Lacking the traditional support system seen in classic tellings of his origin, this Superman must forge his identity while confronting fear, mistrust, and institutional resistance. The series explores themes of power, responsibility, and hope in a world that is not prepared to embrace a hero.
The Superman Absolute statue reflects this darker, more grounded interpretation. Sculpted at a 1:10 scale, the figure depicts Superman in a resolute, commanding stance that conveys both physical strength and quiet determination. The design draws directly from the modern aesthetic of the comic series, capturing a hero defined as much by inner resolve as raw power.
Produced primarily in polystone, with additional resin, PVC, and metal elements, the statue features detailed sculpting and hand-painted finishes that emphasize anatomy, costume texture, and expression. The piece exemplifies Iron Studios' signature craftsmanship and attention to detail, offering collectors a faithful representation of this contemporary take on an iconic character.
Part of Iron Studios' Art Scale line, the Superman Absolute statue continues the collaboration between Iron Studios and Sideshow to bring high-quality, officially licensed collectibles based on modern comic storytelling to a global audience.
The Superman Absolute 1:10 Scale Statue is now available for pre-order through Sideshow. The collectible is expected to ship between October 2026 and December 2026 and will retail for US$255.00.
