InArt: 1/6 Superman (Cavill)

Can't wait to see him straight up and down in the lightbox.

I agree. While I’m not the biggest fan of InArt in general, theirs is definitely superior. And when the light is on it properly, it shines how it’s supposed to.

The airbrushing on top of the suit that a lot of these custom artists do is just plain wrong and inaccurate.

I do, however, wonder what the HT 2.0 will look like

It's one of those things that when you notice the shine is on the raised part it just looks wrong, almost damaged.

That body does have good shape though.

Yay “influencer batch”. Inart need to take note how much this pisses of actual paying customers. So the people that buy your product aren’t as important as some other douches that will spam videos & pics - most often badly - months before the people that actually support your business by paying for these items.
I got the batman in the 1st batch & it was absolutely ruined for me by getting what seemed like an old figure by the time I got it. I look at the Batman on my shelf not in awe of the great work of the suit or the headsculpts but with a feeling of disdain for the figure and the company behind it. It was an old figure by the time I got it & many haven’t even got theirs yet

Really looking forward to the Superman being in hand , hope it'll be so good that I won't want or need another Cavil version.

 

[Dave_W]

I'd be down for a MoS Superman as well.

Isn't that too bright and blue? I don't like the airbrushing, makes his muscles look painted on rather than sculpted muscle underneath the suit, so Inart looks better to me.

I don't like the bright colors either.

I agree the airbrushing method makes it look cheap. But I think it can work if it's really subtle, to accentuate what's already present, such that you can't tell the paint apart from the light that's catching it.

Maybe..

But what I do like about the Hot Toys figure (and it's the only thing I like) is the way the chrome and texture come through under natural conditions with very little effort. It's more sensitive to light, and much more reactive than Inart's.

Everybody keeps referring to those pictures from that last event when Inart had their figure on display, but my goodness there are like 6 lights pointed at the figure in close proximity just to get that sheen to come through.

Now, on one hand, I'm not keen on having 6 lights cluttered around my display to get the figure looking the way I want. Especially that they'd have to be on the entire time. But on the other hand.. ideally, I want the figure to react in the same conditions as the real thing. Otherwise I'll be very limited with how I can light the figure.

To set my mind at ease, I'd like to see both figures compared in the same natural conditions.

The thing is no matter how subtle it is it's on the raised areas which shouldn't reflect more than the lower areas.

One person's not reflective enough is another person's too reflective. Those photos from the last event are lighting it to its limit to show off how it can look but it's way too much in my opinion.

Everything is shipping together I swear. Truly wonder when we should expect the invoice, I hope not around Christmas/New Year bc during that time shipping especially international is a hot mess. I hope it won’t ship before January, I truly don’t have energy for Xmas drama.

Influencer batch this month

Influencer batch this month

Hope the shipper steps on Justin's lol !

 

[i_amjam]

Can definitely tell production has ramped. Definitely a delay with Batman, but once that second batch hit it feels like all their batches are continually rolling out now. Like @JorjeCroft said, I'm hoping to get my invoice after the holiday season. Shipping anything around then sucks

Can't wait to see him straight up and down in the lightbox.

I can’t wait to see Riley’s pics.

 

[Hologram AI]

I can’t wait to see Riley’s pics.

Leak photo from his review:

 

[Scout Trooper]

Skipping Riley's review as usual

 

[vspectra]

He actually surprised everyone with his Aragorn and those pics ended up looking pretty decent. But it's still hilarious to poke fun at him for how bad he botched The Batman

 

[Nine Inch Nails]

Jesus christ, why bother with the influencers for a SOLD OUT product.

 

[ThorRagnarok]

Concerned the suit will end up looking dull. I don't think Inart will beat this...

I don't see why they can't though, given the fabulous work we've seen from customizers. I really don't like the stock Hot Toys figure, but they definitely did some things better.

The way they blatantly call it 'influencer batch'. I am starting to dislike InArt, or at the very least the way they conduct themselves.

PRIORITISE CUSTOMERS.
Not DIMfluencers.
