Create a Superhero With Online Hero Machine

Posted on August 1, 2006

The Sci Fi Channel has created a Hero Machine to promote their upcoming TV series, Who Wants To Be A Superhero?.

The Hero Machine lets you create a super hero by selecting body type, head type, hair, headgear, mask, clothes, gloves, belt, pants, shoes, etc. You can also select weapons for your hero to hold. You can also change the color of any part of the superhero. When you are finished you can name and print your superhero. You can also email it to a pal. Other than these options you can't do a lot with the superhero you create except look at it. However, there are enough options on the Hero Machine to make this an enjoyable timekiller. Many different combinations of hero attributes and colors are possible. Kids would probably also enjoy it. If you are bored you can press the asterix looking button and a silly randomly generated superhero will appear.

You could also put the hero you create on your blog.

Update: The Hero Machine appears to no longer be available.
