Who knows why SS did it like that. But there is also a seem below his clavicle and around his shoulders for the head. They arent PVC lines. They are different pieces that were glued on. Pull up the sleeves and take a look. Can even unzip the back of suit and see the different piece for the head.

That's... weird. Whoever used the Frankenstein monster analogy got it right, lol.

The way the cape is on him is weird too. It has the buttons like the Hot Toys cape does. But then it has ties that goes under suit in front of shoulder and then under arm to tie in back. It isnt difficult to remove as to get a custom cape added. Although SS should give everyone new capes cuz they are not up to SS standard.....at least mine isnt. Other than the cape I am happy with it. I have no lean and when I put it all together right the base seems sturdy enough. I vote it as a win overall....besides the cape. Not sure if I mentioned the cape at all

He was brilliant whoever he was.

Just got mine. Feel bad for those who are having issues. Personally I think it's pretty cool. Defiantly going to keep him.

Daaammmmmmn they do look great together though. That Keaton Batman is pretty awesome. Quite the collection you have there too by the looks! Wow!

Considering the tone of the thread, it's kind of funny when a spelling mistake like this actually works out for the better.

This statue is amazing.

 

[thedorkknight74]

Riggo. Its hard to tell from pics but how is the cape on yours? From the pics it looks like its not as bad as others ive scene.

Haha....that's what I meant!
Capes a little thin but it works for me.

I mean how is the stitching on the bottom? Is it all frayed and uneven with some white residue all along the stitching?

 

[Riggo44]

It's not great and there is some white stuff now that I look really close. It rubs off though. Overall I thinks it the best Christopher Reeve statue going. Far from perfect but still pretty cool.

Glad to see you're also happy with how it came out, Riggo. It's funny, it seems like there weren't nearly as many people in an uproar back when the Cinemaquette Superman came out (granted there were probably less people interested in purchasing that in the first place, being about four times the price of this PF). And let's be honest, this looks like a masterpiece compared to how that turned out (IMO).

 

[izunadrop!]

Got mine. Chip on left boot, leaning, one of the water parts can't go all the way in the dam and badly stitched cape

Good for you, got yourself a way out lol

Something about the lighting and picture quality of this shot makes Batman's face look like Kilmer Batman to me.

This piece looks exactly like the prototype, though i always disliked the design and pose, I think sideshow nailed it. I saw an unboxing of this piece and the main body had no type of wrapping it was just stuffed in the styrofoam like a toy, i'm guessing that was just a one off though.

The review (sort of) of this statue. Let this review reveal the statue and make your own judgement because it shows a very good detailed unboxing and assembly of the fig: Christopher Reeve you did not deserve this....

I did not see an odd looking S, frayed cape, or massive lean on the proto like some of these are showing up with.
