I got #617...my bro got #615 I think.

I hear ya sm and I'm sure you'll dig Clark as much as me.

I just bought the SR CE DVD and watched it again last night, the HT outfit is about as exacting as you'll ever find but, you can still hunt one down on ebay for a decent price if you are diligent.

That will have to wait awhile. I can barely keep up with my Sideshow orders and I'm now trying to save for the Endor Rebel troopers and the White Queen Comiquette.
At least I got my BB Batman and Catwoman figures I bought at the time HT Supes was shipping.

The online pics don't do him justice. The Clark head is a perfect likeness to Routh. The extra head I stuck on Supes since it is painted better, a little dark skin, but nice. The layered suit looks great. Looks like SUPERMAN wearing a suit hehe. I'll post some pics up tomorrow.

Cool, so glad you're diggin' Clark EF, and I haven't seen one good pic which shows the way he looks in hand, including my own....

I took mine out again today, you know, after the initial buzz it's sometimes interesting to get a second impression to see if you get that same buzz and I'm telling you this guy looked EVEN better. It's like having a mini movie version of Clark, great job HT!

Darn! Mine left HK on the 9th and still no sign. Anyone want to do side-by-sides with the Medi?

Well said, pjam! He still has those HT diamond shaped eyes but the paint ops is the best I've seen on a HT figure. The material of the clothing is fantastic! And the craftmanship of the clothes blows me away.

And here's some quick pics. I'll get some better ones once I familiarize myself with the figure and clean off the area I usually photograph.

 

[pjam]

Wow, WOW... Great shots there gdb! Thanks bro.

Love this one, like he's lost in contemplative thought, his outfit is truly amazing.

Wonderful pics. Makes me jealous I don't have this coming my way. Does anyone think I will have problems in the future trying to obtain this of ebay or through other places?

it's not selling as fast as the first version, but yes, eventually it will be harder and harder to find. (all boxed hot toys figures are)

if you really want this, i'd cancel a few sideshow orders and get this one now(if funds are low). you'll probably be able to get the regular version of whatever sideshow figures you cancel a lot easier later on.

 

[Batman5]

Thanks for the advice Cap. I actually don't have any SS on pre-order right now - although I would like to order some of those Leagcy Bonds...

Got mine today 612! I love it but I really want to take the head off of my Superman figure and replace it with the Superman head that came with Clark. I got the neck of with head from the original HT Supes but now I'm receiving some resistance in popping the head off....SOMEONE HELP! I'm afraid of pulling too hard....

use a hair dryer or hot water. it should come off.

 

[Dr.Mirakle32]

I never owned the original HT Supes, but as a huge Superman fan, I did not hesitate in preordering the CK for Christmas. It should arrive anyday now.

For those who own both, which one is the superior figure? I've never owned a HT figure, and don't want to have to go back and buy the original!

What Captain Sack said! Heating it up will help loosen it.

 

[The Mike]

About how long do I hold it under there?

 

[Bardoon]

I've never tried the hot water method (I usually hold anything under a lamp light and wait till its warm)...but I assume maybe 2-5 min. depending on how hot the water is.

Usually I just take it away from the heat source after about 2 min., if it's not working...then I put it back and wait a little longer.

 

[EVILFACE]

Do not remove the regular superman head from the neckpost, the post is small on this one and will rip from the head, even with the head method.

you will need the neck post from one of the naked HT Generation figures. It has the correct neck post head for the extra Clark head.

 

[The Mike]

Success! Only probably is that he's on a different neck post, its triangular and the hole on the bottom of the new Supes head is round....damn.
