Summary
I wanted to print Lego characters that are 2 times normal size,
I adapted Supernova_6969’s Lego Figurine Remixedhttps://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2410047
Doubling up the size and make various tweaks to smooth out some things,
changed the hands a bit and a little more support on the arms.
(I tried with the Giant versions, but the peg design of the arms make it very
hard to assemble when reduced in size, so the one piece arms are better.)
Putting on the arms I use a little veg oil on the body holes,
the arms will go in with a bit of pressure.
Used Chest design from rcaslishttp://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2047694
When Printing Torso start with yellow to create the belt then switch to
Blue where you want the belt to stop.
Redid the Superman Emblem
start with Yellow filament then change to red where S starts.
modified Fringe Curl Superman hair From skimbalhttps://www.thingiverse.com/thing:446354
Legs start with Red and then when you think the boots are tall enough, switch to blue
Use pattern included to cut out cape from whatever you would like to use, I used a Foam Sheet

Notes:
There are various versions of some parts that let you choose additional supports already on it.
you might want to decide to use or not use additional supports.
When a part needed extra detail I would print at .10mm but normally .14mm
I printed the hair upside down and added supports so that the hole for the hair printed correctly, you might find a better way to print it.
