1/6 Hot Toys MMS200 - Man of Steel: Superman Collectible Figure

[link2195]

the black suited Superman looks nice, was it difficult to do? did you see a video or anything on it, I have been thinking of ordering another MOS figure to do this.

^Are you asking me? It wasn't too hard to do since I used the Zod suit and didn't have to paint anything other than the collar, emblem, belt buckle/straps, gauntlets and boots. There are "how to" videos that show you how to paint him if you want to go that route. CleverGirl posted a really good one not too long ago. Just search a few pages back and you'll find it. My only advice is to use lacquer based paint instead of acrylic. Apparently, there's less concern over the paint cracking/chipping if you use lacquer instead of acrylic. Good luck!

I tried to place an order for it on May 4th with a coupon (expired on 5th) and didn't go through.

Rep told me they'll check on it and get back to me within the day. Still no reply. I see its now on the waitlist. I called today. Said its still being worked on and I'll get an update today. I asked if I'll still get it but now they said they're not sure

BEAUTIFUL!!!
That is "THE" figure that inpired me to paint mine.
Owen did an incredible job!!! I love how he also painted the shield and boots.
I'm glad you finally decided to post pics of your MOS.
Major congratulations my friend.

Looking for
jor El or Supes boots,
zod black suit
Supes blue suit (no cape is ok)
please pm me if you have some for sale.

That's awesome, drjedisith! I've got a quick question for both you and Remy: Are certain areas on the suit (for instance, the abs) highlighted with paint to make the muscles appear more pronounced? Or is that just due to the lighting or reflective quality of the paint?

Hi Olbertfrog, I'm not sure what you plan to use the Jor El boots for, but just in case you were planning to use them on the MOS body, you should know that they won't fit since they're a lot smaller than the MOS boots. Didn't want you to waste your money in case that's what you were planning to use them for.

Thanks mate.
Ive read they were compatible to any hot toys body.
Ive had recently a jorel body and saw how thin were the ankle so i ws doubtfull But Someone actually put them on a TTM19 knockoff body (Maybe heating them do the trick).

My bad. I've heard that they were too small. Comparing my Jor El and MOS figures boots, they are not only smaller, but also significantly shorter too. But like you said, maybe heating them will work. Either way, good luck!

 

[olbertfrog]

Yep saw they were shorter too but i did not realise his much.
Would you be Nice enough to post a picture comparing the two?
Thanks for the kind words and beautuful blck supes btw

Thanks a lot! And here you go:

 

[olbertfrog]

Ah thanks a lot mate!
Damn they Will look weirdly too short on the MOS body.
A ttm19 Will look ok but MOS and Zod are bigger.
Thanks again.
Mos boots it is then
What did you use to paint the boots?

 

[SaigonExpress69]

I spray painted the sole/bottom with semigloss black. Then I used acrylic paint via paint brush on the upper portion of the boot. I have been told that lacquer is more durable than acrylic, so you'll probably want to use lacquer instead.

 

[olbertfrog]

Thanks
