ORION
The Scourge of Apokalips

ORIGIN

Orion is Darkseid's son and half-brother to Kalibak. Raised on New Genesis in an aborted attempt at peace, Orion turned against his father's evil ways to fight on the side of justice. Aided by a holographic helmet that disguises his true visage, Orion uses his greater than average strength to abet the Justice League in their struggle against Apokolips.

FIGURE STATS

Orion comes with a helmet which houses a two-sided head. By turning the knob on top of the helmet and then squeezing his legs, you can see happy Orion turn into Mean ol' Orion.

COMMENTS

Orion was a logical member of the New Gods to be turned into a figure, but what is not so logical is the redesign of the character. Presumably the only reason was to accommodate the action feature. Still, the original Orion with a removable helmet would have been much cooler and a much more graceful way of showing his true face.
