I've decided one of my criteria for buying is to only pick up statues that truly capture the essence of the character. I love this piece. But something is off on the EX.
It's no longer about Superman being a classic character. I believe, personally, thats what this piece is all about. Superman standing alone, looking upward probably listening to his father, in the fortress of solitude (based on the base).
The statue captures his strength without him shooting lasers, flying around or lifting a car.
I just think the essence of the piece gets lost with the EX. The regular is more than enough for me.
Someone who really wants it can have mine. It's a shame as I really wanted this to turn out well. Other than the EX COH, this piece is incredible and if anyone from SSC is reading, well done.
