DC live action upgrade 3 - General Zod and Faora

Besides Aquaman, I think I took the most creative liberty with Faora.

 

I tried to like the Kryptonian armor from Man of Steel, I really did. That armor has 2 glaring flaws though: It covers the superb torso prints and makes it so that the figs can't wear their hairpieces. And with the helmet covering Zod's face, he just becomes nameless Kryptonian minion 3. Seems like a waste.

 

Besides the fact that Zod was armorless at the end of Man of Steel, I like to think that the Kryptonians ditched their armor (and gloves) after discovering how godlike they were under the yellow sun.

 

I gave Faora a new hairpiece that's wayyy more accurate to her look during her reign of terror on Earth. I left the cape as a throwback to Ursa from the original Superman movie, who was big on medals, decorations, and spoils of war. On a side note, Faora managed to keep her cape until the end of her screentime, unlike Zod.

 

I scrapped the Kryptonian armor, swapped the hands, replaced Faora's hairpiece with the Yellow Submarine John Lennon hairpiece, and replaced Faora's cape with a spongy cape.
