Hot Toys Clark Kent Image Thread

hey GDB, can you elaborate when you said "Take it from me: hands and neck are interchangable." ?

i recently got superman, and hopefully clark by tomm...so are you saying i can swap the neck with one another?

Sure thing, as you can see in this picture, I've swapped out the bendable hands that come with Clark on the Superman figure, pretty standard. And I've swapping out the neck posts. The top of the necks are different, unfortunately, so CK has to have the old Superman head on the old Superman neck or go headless until I can get another neck post which I understand come with the new Gen. body from Hot Toys. Just apply pressure to the heads so that the necks pop off (easy does it -- especially on Superman whose head isn't meant to pop off the neck) and pop 'em back on. Hope this helps and congrats on the Hot Toys addition to your collection!

If you want advanced tweaking techniques for your Supes, there's some info on lifting his heal to make him taller that FigureMaster Les posted in the Image thread I believe. It's a bit tricky and the figure doesn't NEED it but it's pretty awesome nonetheless.

gdb, when I look at those pics, it reminds me of a cartoon. SOOO wrong, but so funny. how did you hang up your HT supes like that from the top of your display, i've wanted to do something like that for a while now.

Thanks, congerking. I hook the stand between the light fixture and the ceiling of the display. It's not good to keep the light on though as it gets hot. It's not perfect but it's paid for.

That makes sense, I think I'll try it, thanks.

thank you soooo much gdb. i got clark today! looks amazing.

still on the fence about taking him out to play. i always like to buy two of each item, and i have only one clark. i'm waiting for my toy supplier to get him in. once i get my 2nd clark, THEN i'll break him out to play.

I'm dying to get a Generation Life figure or another Clark to swap out the 2nd sculpt with my Superman, its amazingly better than the first sculpt.....

You're welcome BrooklynWolf. If you like the Supes, you gotta get that second CK or bust open your MIB one because the two of them make a great set!

 

[BrooklynWolf X]

yup, just asked a friend to help me order my 2nd one (i got no paypal).

hope i get him by the end of this week.

I love the new sculpt, but cannot stand the Vulcan eyebrows.... I'd love to get a shot at repainting it.... Maybe one day I will...

One thing is for certain... it's a great sculpt.

Got a quick question for you proud owners of the CK. Does Clark just have a Superman shirt underneath or a full blue suit?

 

[IrishJedi]

Just ordered mine from Urban Samurai. Can't wait.

They're removable but please be very careful as the glasses are fragile. The glasses on my piece was abit hard to remove as the glasses was placed on the figure when the paint had not dried, resulting in paint sticking to the insides of the grooves in his hair as well as on his nose bridge.





You'll need a very firm grip to carefully wedge out the glasses bit by bit. If you're worried you might snap the glasses, don't give it a shot at all.

I made use of the extra Supes head to attempt to pull off a Clark on the farm. Yes, I know the spitcurl's just wrong, but it'd be a waste to keep the extra head in the box.



I kitbashed a Bruce (from Takara Batman) to accompany Clark as well.

Hey Shaun! Good to see you here bro. Is your regular Supes repainted? Looks damn good!

 

[nash]

Nevermind. just bought one already along with vasquez. I figure if I dont like her, i'll just sell her off no problem.

Damn, I haven't hit this thread in a long time, you guys are kicking some major ass here with these pics and all. Way to go CK freaks!

hey bro, its not repainted, didn't do anything to it.

This is one of the most perfect figures Ive seen in awhile. Notihng on this dissapoints. Not to mention LE 1000, with alternate head, and affordable price, you just cant go wrong.
