One of the most famous matches of all time comes to action figure form from NECA.

In 1978, legendary boxer Muhammad Ali proved that he truly was “the greatest of all time” by defeating the strongest man on Earth: Superman. Far from a grudge match, this battle in the pages of DC Comics’ historic Superman vs. Muhammad Ali would ultimately set the two up to save the planet from an alien invasion. Now for the first time ever, that iconic team-up comes to action figure form in a stylized set that pays tribute to the philanthropist, social activist and three-time World Heavyweight Champion.

Both 7” scale figures have over 25 points of articulation and feature comic-stylized deco based on Neal Adams’ spectacular cover art. Superman includes alternate ungloved hands.

Look for the Superman vs Muhammad Ali figure set this November/December. Pre-orders are currently open at many online retailers, including BigBadToyStore.com where the set is priced at $39.99.
