Agreed. Despite their figures having certain/some inaccuracies or inadequacies, they’re still producing the best stuff in the licensed and mass produced 1/6 game. Haters gonna hate though.

Even with its avoidable flaws, its still better than HTs efforts. If and when HT makes their 2.0 and its better than this, I'll get that one as well.

I had the same issue with mine regarding the collar. It bothered me so much I just ended up gluing the suit over the holes and made sure to align it perfectly and now there is no unsightly gap where the cape slots in.

So got my fourth Superman… and he has a huge gap at collar. At first I thought suit was stretched and tried to rearrange but didn’t work. Then removed the suit and saw that one hole is higher than another which causes the wonk. Should I complain with Kit? He’ll roll his eyes lol
This is a complicated situation, if I’ll ask for replacement they need to send entire body as suit is glued on and I’m not going to remove it to switch the body. Sculpt is absolutely perfect.

I think comparing back to Hot Toys’s prior releases isn’t fair despite them complacently reusing the same 2016 Cavill sculpt for their 2021 Knightmare 2-pack release.

I bet the prospective HT BvS 2.0 will be good. However, for me personally, I still prefer how In/Art makes their figures in the head-to-head matchups. Horrible example probably (I mean it makes sense to me lol) but it’s kinda like how I see vehicle models and makes. I’m a Mustang guy vs a Camaro guy despite thinking the Camaro has certain features that I prefer better than Mustang, but overall, I prefer Mustang’s design language. Or 4Runner (what I have) vs Wrangler. The Jeep does things better on the trails vs 4Runner, but it doesn’t matter to me, cause I prefer everything else about 4Runner and 4Runner is still great on the trails/mountain driving/etc.

Imo, the only real pros HT that IA doesn’t currently posses is their established reputation, decent and consistent QC and their ability to really nail a likenesses in terms of sculpt work when they do get it right (which is few and far between, imo). Every other facet of 1/6, I give it to IA.

I’ll probably do the same thing, once I put him on display. Annoying af and still can’t figure out what causes it. As others have said holes are molded. At first I thought one hole was higher than another and that was a reason for wonk, but probably I’m hallucinating idk.
