Its difficult to picture anyone else playing the role of Superman, then the late, Great Christopher Reeves. And surprisingly no toy company has made a Superman figure in his image. My version was created using the body of the 12" Donald Trump figure. Why did I use trump for this custom and not a normal GI. Joe body, you ask? Well, the main reason is, I had the Trump figure laying around in my parts box and his dark blue suit was perfect for Clark Kent. Also trump's right hand was in his trademark "Cobra" "You're fired" pose. This lent itself great to holding open Clark's shirt and jacket to reveal his Superman outfit underneath. When creating this custom figure, I decided since you were not meant to change his outfit, I didn't need to make his entire Superman costume. The top of his outfit was cut from silk blue fabric, shaped to fit over his torso and glued onto the body. I cut his glasses out from a clear piece of plastic and painted on the black frame.
