Super7 Finally Gets SilverHawks Ultimates Right … Four Waves In


Aside from the normal gripes, one of the biggest criticisms of Super7’s SilverHawks figures was that the heroes’ armor was a dull shade of silver rather than shiny like the classic toys and cartoons. After multiple waves, Super7 is finally addressing this problem.

Wave 4 is a rehash of previously released figures with some improvements and changes. All four figures in this release are called the “Toy Version.” Yes, we’re getting recolors of Steelheart, Buzz-Saw, Mon*Star, and Quicksilver that mirror the color palettes of the 1980s toys.

Including the vac-metal finish on Steelheart and Quicksilver means they’re $10 more expensive than usual. The Ultimates figures are now $65. Even though Buzz-Saw is a repaint and lacks the chrome finish, he is also $65. Meanwhile, Mon*Star is the same price he was previously: $85.

If you purchase the Wave 4 bundle, you’ll get a bonus Super Pack that contains alternate heads for each of the four figures. These variants capture the limited colors found in LJN’s 1987 toy line.

Super7 added a tiny disclaimer regarding the new finish found on the SilverHawks:

Please Note: Due to the fragile nature of the vac-metal finish, this figure should be handled with care and posed delicately to avoid chipping or cracking.

This is a real concern given the issues we’ve encountered with the paint on other Super7 figures.
