I was always nervous to doing any mods on this hot toys figure, it is the first hot toys figure I purchased since i loved the Man of Steel film and what they tried to do with it. t thanks to some videos I have seen on the cape and wiring, thanks Clipper King for the idea.

I was able to finally do it and get this figure displayed as how I think superman should be posed...

What do you guys think, will the clamp effect the suit at all after some time?

What mods did you do to the figure?

Regarding the pose; it looks cool, but I personally wouldn't leave it that way as a permanent pose. I'd only do something like that for photos.

I cut the cape and placed a cut shirt hanger, since it's a little thicker and sewed it to the bottom of the cape to get that effect that I have seen some people do with the cape, surprisingly holds very well!

Thanks for the comments! Do you think it would damage the figure keeping him like that?

I personally don't think it would damage it. It's not heavy enough to do that. If it was a die-cast figure, yes but this isn't die-cast.

Probably not. But I'd still be concerned about it in the back of my mind.

I would not leave him in any crazy poses for long. The suit tends to stick together. I was hesitant on doing the Cape mod but I found it very easy to do and looks sooooo much better after.

Finally jumped in and did the collar mod and wired cape. Can't be happier

Looks good.

Has anyone swapped the stock cape on this for the stock BvS cape? If so, I'm just wondering what that looks like.

I did awhile back when I completely customized mine

Damn... That "after" pic is what I want for the Superman in my collection.

Thanks man!

The icing on the cake would be if Tony Mei would do a run of his thinner cuffs so I could replace the stock ones

Ah ok, I actually do recall you posting that picture before. That looks really good, thanks for posting it again.

So is that painted at all? Or is it just the photo that's making it darker?

No problem sorry if you were looking for a modless figure with the BvS cape. I don't think anyone has done that yet

The suit is slightly painted but not the way others have done it in the past. The suit is not what's making the metallic shine. I broke down my process in post #10994 of you'd liked to read it.

No worries. To be veracious, that actually is more what I meant; the stock figure with simply the collar mod and then just swapped the stock MoS cape out for the BvS cape. However, yours still does give an idea as to what it would look like, since it's still the MoS figure. Looks great.

Awesome custom Gippeto.
It gave me ideas and i modded a Mos Supes i had.
BVS body customized
- shoulders sanded to give them a more round form (i did it on my BVS too)
- triceps muscles added with miliput (did it on my BVS too)
- forearms muscle add ons removed
- bigger bulge with miliput then painted silver
I left the thighs muscles add ons.

suit had the usual cape holder lowered mod (i tried putting the BVS one like Gippeto but couldnt make it work) and Tony mei cape (might get jaxxon ´s wired cape with pleats).








Gippeto, those boots look great alas i know i couldnt do them as you beautifully did.

Gippeto, saw that yur getting some jaxxon capes, do you have a BVS cape yur not using i would need one to fix my bro figure who is stained
Let me know
