    Default The worst ever Superman toys

    Okay, so the other thread gave me this thread idea. Only rule: no bootlegs. Official stuff only, por favor. Bootlegs are a whole other level, but official toys deserve their own mention because they aren't a hodgepodge of random popular franchises and toy ideas slapped together. I give extra credit to JLU-line toys, because I feel like by 2005, DC and toymakers should've known better.

    Anyway, here are the two worst I've seen so far:

    1) The Justice Jogger

    2) Some Superman motorcycle with a red-headed Wonder Woman in the sidecar

    I think we should do story ideas based on toys - a sort of 'caption this' (without hijacking your thread).

    I think you pretty much nailed it with the Justice Jogger. I first saw one in a Cracked article and if anything summed up the "make money off anything" mentality of the eighties, it's giving a guy who can fly a device that was defeated by Ewoks. My other favorite useless toy was the Flash on a motorcycle.

    I know, right? If the people who came up with the toy ideas actually watched the cartoon, they would've made a sweet van!

    That doesn't look familiar, was that part of some storyline?

    Looks like an answer to the 90's trenchcoat wearing trend.
