On the classic Superman is there a way to remove that dumb "S" chest emblem without damage to the costume?

Based on your pics, I actually feel like the armor sits better on the body with yours. I have 2 of the official Mez versions and I'm considering picking up this up.
 
yeah i agree ,when i saw in hand pics of the mezco i thought the proportions were off ,so much so that i lost interest in buying one

on the bright side you should have no problem selling yours if you want to and make a bunch of $$$s doing so :hi5::lol
 
quick update

second Armored bats arrived ,die cast chest still not painted or very lightly painted ,figure seems a little darker than my first ,i like it looks great like the hot toys black chrome version could be lightened with a little dry brushing :)

Hey Libby
What did you do, cut the undies off the Chris Reeve Neca figure? I mean I assume so, but wanted to verify. Looks nice, does it hamper articulation?
 
Also, what are the chances that there will be bootlegs of or re-releases of Shazam and Classic Superman? I missed both of these. Shazam I dragged my feet too long, on Supes I wanted to see reviews and by the time they hit, he was gone faster than a speeding bullet:gah:
 
As far as I know they don't do re-releases.

Your best bet for Shazam is to ask for it in the One 12 collectors and One 12 collective collectors FB groups, I've seen Shazam pop up at retail price a few times, if you're lucky you could get Supes too, but not at retail.

@Libby, that looks much better, well done!

About $100 for Shazam on amazon. Link

or

$100 - 20% (code: cyber20) + shipping at: manofactionfigures.com
 
I picked up my Shazam on Ebay for $68 new back in August. The buy it now listings are $95-$100. Pretty sure it goes for less in an auction.

If you're patient enough, people will put up a figure you want for a great price. That's what I did. Took me a few months to catch up on the line, but I didn't overpay for any of the figures.
 
Can't wait to get this in 2025. Unless it's a Mezco exclusive, in which case I'm screwed for not living in the USA.
