Superman 12-Back Unpunched, Super Powers Vintage Toys by Kenner 1984
Vintage Superman – Super Powers Collection (1984) | Kenner | Unpunched 12-Back | Mint on Card
Suit up for truth, justice, and nostalgia with this original 1984 Superman action figure from Kenner’s iconic Super Powers Collection—a vintage gem that’s soaring back into the spotlight just as the Man of Steel returns to theaters this week!
This unpunched, 12-back carded figure features the quintessential look of Kal-El: bright blue suit, red trunks and cape, and that unmistakable “S” shield. But what truly sets this toy line apart is the gimmick: squeeze Superman’s legs and unleash his “Power Action Punch”—Kenner’s way of putting super strength in the hands of every kid on the playground. Tucked behind the figure is the original mini-comic that adds to the lore, with colorful art and storytelling that brings the DC Universe to life.
🔴 Fun Fact: The Super Powers line was a joint effort between DC Comics and Kenner, with designs directly influenced by José Luis García-López’s classic DC style guide art. In fact, this Superman figure is widely considered one of the most definitive representations of the character in toy form—often cited by collectors as the gold standard of pre-90s Superman merchandise.
The reverse card features the first 12 characters released in the line (hence “12-back”), including Batman, Wonder Woman, and The Flash, as well as a peek at the Hall of Justice and other legendary vehicles like the Supermobile and Batmobile.
Whether you’re riding the hype of James Gunn’s upcoming Superman reboot or rediscovering the greatness of ‘80s superhero toys, this mint-on-card piece belongs in any true collector’s Fortress of Solitude.
