First Look - McFarlane Toys "Return of Superman" Eradicator Action Figure
Posted on April 12, 2025 by Neil Cole
McFarlane Toys has revealed a first look at their upcoming DC Multiverse "Return of Superman" Eradicator action figure which is an updated version of the previously released 2022 figure.
After Superman was killed by Doomsday, the Fortress of Solitude robots reactivated the Eradicator's consciousness, driving it to 'steal' Superman's body and take it to the Fortress. With Superman's body as a template, the Eradicator was able to create a new humanoid form for itself based on Superman's own, but dependent on Superman's corpse to act as a 'battery' for it, with Superman absorbing solar radiation that was then channeled into the Eradicator. As a result of this new form, the Eradicator came to believe itself to be Superman on some level, showing access to some of his memories- although it lacked his vision powers and instead fired energy blasts from its hands- but it also adopted a more ruthless approach, such as killing a would-be rapist and breaking a safecracker's hands. After Superman's body was restored to life, the Eradicator realized the truth of its nature and sacrificed itself to help restore Superman to full strength during the final confrontation with the Cyborg Superman.
The DC Multiverse "Return of Superman" Eradicator action figure will be available for pre-order on Tuesday, April 15th at select retailers!
