CYBORG
The Titanium Titan
ORIGIN
Victor Stone was helping his parents explore trans-dimensional
warps at S.T.A.R. Labs when an extraterrestrial creature came
through the warp they were testing. Killing his mother and severely
wounding Victor, the creature was banished by his father, who
then replaced Victor's damaged body parts with cybernetic replacements.
These new parts gave Victor super strength and agility, which
he then used to join the Teen Titans and fight crime.
FIGURE STATS
Cyborg comes with three hand attachments that can be put on
his arm to simulate transforming parts. The hands are a normal
hand, a drill hand, and a claw/wrench hand. When his legs are
squeezed together, Cyborg waves his wacky hands all around.
COMMENTS
Easily the prize of the Super Powers collection, Cyborg saw
very limited release after the cancellation of the line. In
addition to his scarcity, Cyborg is also the only Black character
in the line and one of the only vac-metallized ones. In 1989,
Pacipa released a Cyborg figure in their Super Amigos line,
but it is inferior to the Super Powers version due to low grade
plastic and cheap paints that flake off. Amazingly, Cyborg has
already gotten a second figure in the Dc Direct line, and a
third one is possible as a tie-in to the Teen Titans' cartoon.
