Hot Toys new Superman teaser... he's coming guys!

[RIDDICK]

Superman (1978) / Superman IV (1987)

Wtf...

It's finally a Christopher Reeve 1:6 Superman officially licensed and spectacularly done. The thread will explode into photoshops and knitpicks but I can't wait to order and receive. I will admit it's not perfect but I'm still geeking out

 

[pjam]

Enough of this thread...


Can't wait for the actual product thread... should be up soon with pre-orders early next week I hope.

looks great as is. The nitpicky doll collectors will never end . Sucks for those that payed for the cm version, this one is clearly better.

This could probably be the best .GIF ever in a thread with different opinions all over the place

Geez, dont encourage him.

Who cares about those pr__s buying such an expensive ___

 

[batfan08]

I just wish the nitpickers who "don't like it" wouldn't buy it. That way those who do won't miss out.

Nope. Hot Toys must be special. Not even Medicom takes as much heat from its buyers.

Hehe too true. "I don't like it .................. but i'll be getting it"

That the problem my friend figures made from a motion picture with this huge costs and extreme details needs to be SCREEN ACCURATE you probably are ok with this release but the hype (yeah that we all created here and btw most of the collectors around the world wanted) docent mesh with this release, i expected more, i respect youre opinion, and ill wait for the final pics hoping HT prove me wrong, still when you see a DX Sparrow you wondered if they take more time or hired another sculptor to do this how would it be?

You're kidding with this ____ right? All the drama you guys have caused, I'm surprised the owner of HT didn't have a high-res pick of his ass taken, distributed everywhere with a big " YOU, YOU !" tattooed right there across his cheeks. You guys hold the SSF record for single-handedly making more drama than every thread in the SW section COMBINED! HT should've canceled this ____ just to make you guys realize how much self-inflicted ____ you've caused. It'd serve each and every one of you right.

So I guess we'll be getting the full specs tomorrow since the cats out the bag.

I hate the Spider-Man costumes from the first three. The webbing was garbage, and I didn't like the sculpted-on muscles.

As far as Superman goes...his is pretty much the easiest to use on-screen, because quite frankly he doesn't need anything fancy. I wasn't saying luthor's wrong, far from it...I just wanted to point out that 100% accuracy sometimes doesn't work as far as comic costumes on-screen go. Superman is the one exception that I can think of, because again he just doesn't need anything else.

I didn't have a problem with the updates to the suit in Superman Returns aside from wishing the emblem was larger, because the basics were still there. Do I wish the colors were brighter? Sure do. But they would have clashed with the palette of the film. I liked the addition of the seams to the outfit and the texturing, because it was more visually interesting to me.

Again, I'm not saying those changes needed to be made. They didn't. I just thought they looked good on film, and today's audience (not us old farts) needs more visual stimulation and may have a harder time accepting a guy in simple spandex.

Actually, if you watch the behind the scenes of SR, they liked the spiderman movie suit and copied it, it has the sculpted muscle-on wetsuit underneath the suit.
Even though Brandon Routh got big for the role, they still had to use the wetsuit to give him the muscle definition on film

Oh Yeaaaaaah....madness biotches!!!!!

Glad I am not interested reading all the back post, I like it. I couldn't tell you how movie accurate it is / or isn't but for my money looks like Reeve. I'll gladly purchase.....

Interesting. I guess I just bought Routh being muscular more than I did Tobey Maguire.

How vastly superior and grandiosely epic this would've been if released by NECA, MEZCO or even McFarlane.

They just do it to hear themselves because no one else will listen to them. Happens with every Hot Toys release. But funny how you can't find it a few months later except on EBay.
