🛡️ Wonder Woman Trivia: The Myth, the Line, the Legacy
🟡 The Only Woman in the First Wave:
In a toyline dominated by capes and cowls, Wonder Woman stood tall as the sole female superhero in Series 1—a bold and progressive move by Kenner in 1984, representing both the character’s enduring popularity and her rightful place in DC’s Holy Trinity alongside Batman and Superman.
🟡 A Design Rooted in Mythology & Iconography:
The figure’s design pays homage to the pre-Crisis Silver & Bronze Age comic iterations of Diana Prince, complete with her iconic red corset, blue star-spangled skirt, tiara, and red boots with white trim. This was the era when artists like José Luis García-López defined the “style guide look” of DC heroes—a visual language that would dominate merchandise for decades.
🟡 Real Power Action, Real Influence:
Unlike most static female figures of the time, Wonder Woman was given a unique and empowering action feature—a motion-based deflection mechanic that allowed her to hold her own alongside Superman’s punch and Batman’s karate chop. It wasn’t just token representation—this was intentional equality in play pattern, reinforcing her status as a frontline warrior, not a sidekick.
🟡 The Steppenwolf Offer Connection:
This particular 12-back variant includes the Steppenwolf & Darkseid record redemption promo, one of the coolest mini promotions tied to the line. The synergy between figure, comic, and audio record created a rich play universe that predated the concept of “extended multimedia storytelling” we see in modern brands like Marvel Legends or Star Wars: The Vintage Collection.
🟡 A Timeless Cultural Icon:
Wonder Woman was already more than four decades old when this toy was released, and yet this figure helped renew her legacy for a whole new generation of kids in the ‘80s. The Super Powers Collection introduced her to a post-Lynda Carter TV audience and prepped her for a pop-culture resurgence in the 2000s and beyond.
