MAN OF STEEL Toy Commercials Give Us A Look At Zod & His Army; Reveal Some New Details

Want to know exactly who or what "Black Zero" is? What type of back-up General Zod will be bringing to Earth with him? Then click ahead, but if you want to stay completely SPOILER free I would give it a miss..

These leaked toy commercials are clearly far from the finished product (they use footage from Superman Returns) but they might just give us an idea of what to expect from General Zod's final costume, and some possible details on his "minions" too. Although the toys themselves are very cartoony likenesses of the characters, there are a few details revealed in the commercials that, if represented in the actual movie, would definitely be considered spoilers, so SPOILER WARNING..





Remember those rumors of a new villain called "Black Zero"? Well it seems that will be the name of Zod's pretty devastating sounding spaceship. Plus, we should probably expect him to show up with a "robot army" in the movie too.

It looks like there'll be a version of superman that's orange and yellow in the film, purely from the fact there's a version of that look in two different toys, which means it must come from the film in some part.

I'm guessing it's going to be a view of him flying extremely fast that he starts to burn up as opposed to a different suit colour...

Obviously they are using footage from Superman Returns because they are not the final versions, and they didn't want them leaking - which they were clearly right to worry about - with footage from MOS.

The only thing that's stopping me from saying "fake" is the fact Zod's chest emblem looks something like the little bit that we saw in the spy pic.

That said, where's Faora?

So robots, tanks and Black Zero is a ship of some kind?

Bring it on.

@YOUNGBL00D. Here you go.





The robe isn't part of the costume. It looks like Zod will have a cape.

´´Zod is activating the gravity beam`` - makes sense since we saw a blue beam in the Comic-Con trailer and cars flying upwards. But, since when is Zod bald? And why is the supposed date on these commercials 2011??? Smells like fake.

It's also funny how these videos have the fan made S logo and not the official one. Yeah. Fake is as fake does!
UltimaRex
UltimaRex - 10/16/2012, 7:42 AM
@GordonShumway. Probably because it was shot in 2011. Which explains the placeholder head on Zod. Of course that means they'll have to shoot it again. That is, if it's not fake anyway...

So, according to the toys, Superman will be able to stretch like Mr. Fantastic?
What's next? being able to turn invisible and/or set himself on fire at will?

I am not looking forward to this flick at all. Which means, maybe if my expectations are low, I may end up thinking it didn't suck all that much once I see it.

And what looks fake about this commercial? Yes, it was made last year, It takes a while for manufacturing and final changes to a massive product like Superman, and remember, this movie was suppose to come out in Decemeber of this year, this could have been made with that in mind. And of course they used footage from SR. They needed to fill this space and there's NO WAY they would release clips to a [frick]ing toy company. And above all else, quit bitching, its a toy made for a 7 year old. get over it.

I like the idea of a robot army simply because it gives Supes a chance to really tear ass in the movie. We need lots of action from supes and fighting the same 2 people the entire movie would get dull.
