InArt: 1/6 Superman (Cavill)

Massaging the material has helped quite a bit. There is still a little crease in the area where it was folded over. I’m wondering if some heat will help that, shall try when I can.

Now that this has been mostly solved, to the point that I’m content enough as is. I do really think this figure looks great. I’m a big fan of the sculpt, I liked it in pics but it’s even better in hand. The physique is nice, and he has presence.

My only gripe, is trying to put the hands on. These are easily the hardest InArt hands to put on, and this suit has zero hold, so it’s a challenge getting the hands on

I think this looks really good now. I would strongly advise against any heat treatment. That material and the screenprinting are both paper thin. Any heat could immediately damage it.

So will the flying stand damage the suit more so than a HT waist grabber?

Gotta love InArt QC

He’s also got a dab of similar red-ish paint on the lower left between left his lips and chin.

I’ll have to pop the eyes out to see if this can get these marks off or if this is permanent and will need a replacement

I don’t use any of these, but theoretically it will. Rubber is printed on the fabric so if you’ll keep it stretched for a long time it will change the shape. I use peener grabber stands for everything I have.

So a waist grabber will damage the suit with the same or more chances due to the force of it being pressed onto the suit for long period of time.

Waist grabber is 1000 times worse here. The suit is already thin as it is. Having a pincher applying continues pressure onto two points on both sides of the body is just asking for trouble. I can't imagine the new flight stand will do much damage but we really don't know since that will most likely be a long term assessment.

I should probably open mine at this point and see if there are any issues. Still in the box sealed for a few weeks now.

I was waiting to your review! And I’m sorry you got quality issues, definitely ask for a new set of eyes!!! I agree with you, while this figure is gorgeous I think HT can beat this up, so we are patiently waiting I’m not HT fanboy, don’t even have lot of HT, but never had any quality issues with them, which is a big plus for me. InArt ruins whole experience with their nonexistent QC. Me and you, both of us are cursed

P.S. wrist wrinkles and collar gaps seems to be a common issue with this release, of course InArt gonna say that’s a normal thing.

Thankfully I don't need new eyes. After a bit of light scrubbing, I was able to get that excess off. Used some polishing sticks to buff the eyes and get the shine back.

I can't say I've never had a QC issues with HT figures, but I've been able to get a replacement with no fuss thanks to the great customer service from Sideshow as well as other retailers. Unfortunately with InArt, apparently they have a wide berth for what they consider to be acceptable and within normal standards which ends up coming off as they're just really not interested in making it right for ppl with legitimate QC issues. I still can't get over how they sent someone a colored pencil to fix missing paint on the nose

But, maybe we are cursed though
