Re: MMS200 - Man of Steel: Superman Collectible Figure
Kal-El finally made it from Krypton to my house this evening via UPS. I have never actually given a formal review out here, and thought I might give it a go this time. All scholarly, with plenty of big words and all that. So here is my 30-second review:
OMG GORGEOUSNESS ABSOLUTE PERFECTION IN EVERY WAY AND COMMAND KEY, WHOOOOO! There is quite simply nothing not to like about this figure, he is beyond awesome. No oversprays, no flat spots, none of that. Likeness might as well be Cavill hit with a shrink-ray. Even the cape has almost no wrinkles! I'll take care of those few tomorrow with a gentle ironing. Beautiful packaging and the fabric-pattern printed all over everything is just the bomb. Gorgeous!
Few minor nitpicks: I don't need to be able to point his feet like a ballerina's, but a little more foot-drop when he is "in flight" would be nice. People suspended in the air don't have their feet at 90 degree angles. And lets face it, this stand is at least double the size it really needs to be. Its a really nice base, just so huge.
NOW BRING ME ZOD.
