Re: MMS200 - Man of Steel: Superman Collectible Figure

yeah i get what your saying ,it looks as much like Matt Bomer as it does Henry ,but luckily they both look like superman lol ,this is the head play stand alone head sculpt ,not the modern life one or the hot toys knock off

Re: MMS200 - Man of Steel: Superman Collectible Figure

even though its a bit redundant now ,i finally finished off my superman kit bash ,thank in part to Barry kindly passing on a couple of his unwanted head sculpts ,thanks again Barry ,jorel boots ,suit plus marker pen ,and jorels cape ,i noticed in the movie dream sequence the capes on the black suits seemed to be a rusty wine shade ,so as i had one spare and hot toys put a lot of work into it ,i used it lol ,looks a little like some of the concept art unused versions of the suit

Very nice, I love it. Only 2 quick suggestions, please keep in mind these are suggestions not me trying to pick at you or anything we are all friends here. The head sculpt from a HT man of steel I think would improve it a lot and perhaps if you took the suit off and airbrushed it with an acrylic semi-gloss black. That would help to ensure you don't have hints of blue poking through. Oh yeah and a mound of skulls for him to sink into LOL. But seriously looks pretty good. Hope I didn't offend man.

I guess it's hard to describe it for those who don't have the MOS in hand yet, but if you zoom in on the HT HS, you can see Cavill's presence IMO

Already been charged by SS. Tempted to get expedited shipping so I can have him by the weekend since Vader seems indefinitely delayed.

That's what puzzles me why are the UK collectors getting the SS figures like Vader before most people in the states. SS is the U.S.

I always get anxious about this time... waiting for the text from the card company saying that the deed is done.

Apparently there was some sort of customs issue which caused a split to the Vader shipment but what's annoying is they haven't admitted that to me when I've talked to them. They keep telling me each day that it's shipping that day and it doesn't. I mean just level with me that mine's not in stock yet. They charged me six days ago too.

Interesting, maybe but Joebizz got his for his review and he is from NY/NJ so maybe it's your customs.

Tomorrow I need to contact Sideshow and ask them to charge my last 2 flex payments on this guy so I can get him sooner. I am so excited to have him, and have my World's Finest shelf setup. All the reviews for this one just make me want him more.

Yea a bunch of guys got theirs already. It's ok I mean I didn't order him the day he went up anyway but I just wish SS would explain what's going on. I guess I'm just spoiled by places like Amazon that ship so fast.

I hate the shipping carrier Amazon uses for my area, they have messed up my packages time and time again, either losing my packages , destroying the boxes or delivering it to the wrong house.

I tried to use someone else with Amazon but it's out of their hands.

Let us know how that goes. I want to do that too but was told non flex-pay people have priority. Once an item shows in stock or now shipping, us flex payers can pay the balance. Which i'm assuming by the time it does change status, we will get an email asking if we'd like to pay figure in full. I'm thinking at least another 2 weeks.

Re: MMS200 - Man of Steel: Superman Collectible Figure

I guess Sideshow hasn't received these in their warehouse as of yet. I'm excited to display this guy on a shelf next to MOS Jor-El!
