Re: Hot Toys Superman

Also, with the Jor-El figure, you really need it new/mint in box.
If I had not already got one earlier I would jump on Toys2 sale.

If I would have had extra income money I would have been on that too.

BTW, how accurate is jor el's resemblance to Marlon Brando. Does it look like him or with these new improvements that HT has can we expect a better version.

I think the figure looks pretty close to his likeness but, the one that really comes too...is the Godfather figure...that one is dead on !!

it's really good for a sculpt which is a few years old, they could definitely do a lot better now, but it still stands up..

I'm a Brando fan -the likeness is fan-f'n-tastic!

Can't wait to display my Jor-El next to Reeve.

Here is a pic of mine holding a custom Kryptonite, he just waiting for his son to arrive and give him the Kryptonite Gus Gorman gave him

Re: Hot Toys Superman

Jor-El is an A+ fig IMO.

The likeness there looks pretty spot on, imo. Better than Brandon Routh's, that's for sure.

Re: Hot Toys Superman

Just wanted to share this. Picked up a DCD World of New Krypton Superman today because of the head sculpt and popped it on a History of the DC Universe Superman body. The sculpt is a great Reeve sculpt and it fits just about any DCD body. First is my pic, which is crappy.

And an Ebay auction with better pics and a different body.

Re: Hot Toys Superman

That is a nice head-sculpt. But I like the body from the eBay pic better.

Re: Hot Toys Superman

Yeah. I actually have the figure he used for the body, but it's the original release, MOC, which is extremely hard to find and I'm not gonna use it for a custom.

Re: Hot Toys Superman

Cool. I wonder if the head would fit one of the DCUC Superman figures.
