Firestorm (DC Total Heroes)

Firestorm is a nuclear powered superhero made up of two people fused together in a nuclear accident. For a more in-depth history of Firestorm you can read this post. I like Firestorm a lot and was glad to be able to pick this figure up a few years after it was released.



This is a Total Heroes Ultra figure and comes with a bunch more accessories. The alternate heads represent the various forms of Firestorm from the New 52 series "The Fury of Firestorm: the Nuclear Men." You've got the classic Ronnie Raymond head, the Jason Rusch head in his yellow costume, and the combined monstrous form dubbed Fury. But my favourite is the disembodied Martin Stein head that pegs into Firestorm's back.


















Ronnie's costume was all red in the reboot just as Jason's was all yellow and Fury sported the more familiar red & yellow.




Prof. Stein is not amused.




Jason Rusch. 





The yellow head looks weird on the red and yellow body but obviously we weren't going get 3 repainted bodies.



Nuclear burst!


Clearly a repurposed Green Lantern accessory.


Jason and Prof. Stein were Firestorm for a brief period.

Fury. 
Creepy details.




Not the gigantic proportions found in the comics but it's only one figure.




Ramming speed!

The classic pair.

I always loved Prof. Stein's ghostly head floating around kvetching at Ronnie.
