George Reeves Superman?

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got a spring. Come inside and chat about Funko Wacky Wobblers (bobble heads, for the less sophisticated).

George Reeves Superman?

Postby AshleyWilbanks » Fri Jun 01, 2018 7:06 am

Has there ever been a George Reeves Superman wobbler made? I would love to get one of these. Since this version of Superman is about as "Americana" as it gets, you would think one would have been created, but I guess licensing could play a roll in it as well...

I remember watching him as Superman when I was a kid. Bet you most people nowadays don't even know who he was.

I’m not old enough to remember him as Superman, it’s always gonna be Christopher Reeves for me but I can appreciate the sentiment. Was George the first to portray Superman in live action?

I believe there was another actor who played Superman in the late 1940's. Pretty sure George Reeves came next in 1950's.

They can make a good Superman multi set with all the actors who perform the super hero. Starting with Kirk Alyn, George Reeves, Christopher Reeve, Dean Cain, Brandon Routh, Henry Cavill. Maybe I miss some in between who play Superman few times, but I think those are the main ones and will be cool with this figures.

Oh man I grew up watching the George Reeves Superman. I would love to see him as a Wacky Wobbler. They could do a black and white variant too since the first two seasons were in black and white.

The “oldest” looking Superman wobbler was the 80s comic style. They only recently started doing Funko Pops and Dorbz products with the classic and Superman #1 skin.

A George Reeves Wobbler works better than a Pop!. It just have that look from that era.

This would be a great wobbler. I wonder if someone can make a custom for you?

Wobbler would probably be the best version of it, yeah. I bet the hardcore Superman fans would be all over it, hehe
Or did you think I'd be too stupid to know what a eugoogoly was?
