Re: Hot Toys - MMS152 - Superman: 1/6th scale Superman Collectible Figure

I'l post some later. the short of it is, the plastic bubble part of the packaging, where his head is, got a inward dimple that was pressing into his forehead. he was in storage for a while, and it wasn't SUPER HOT in there, but it was a little warm. This created a "shiny dimple" on his forehead about 1/2 the size of a pencil eraser. i'll try to post pics tonight.

Ouch.
That's not good.
Post pics later.
And also, i have bought several CR headsculpts on Ebay. The only bootleg is this one(The rest are good):

mine got a little damaged in the move.... his head is a bit warped now :/ i now need to find a replacement head for him. anyone know if the heads on ebay are good, or counterfeit?

Man sorry to hear that. But if you don't want to go to ebay, toyanxiety.com still has the sculpt. If you haven't bought from them, don't worry, they're good ppl. I as well as many of the freaks here probably buy stuff from them at least once a week

Awesome. I see a few for reasonable prices, The blemish isn't THAT noticeable, but it's still present, and it annoys me

There are loads on Ebay. There's a seller i have been trying to haggle down, but they have the cheapest one on Ebay right now(With free shipping).

Plus, you could always sell your blemished one to try and subsidise the cost.
I once bought one with a shiny nose tip and it worked out fine for the custom i used it for.

Maybe someone else got the link and ordered the head?
I have often been sent links on the forum here only to find the item gone. Someone else likely got there first.

That is simple, but beautiful!

Thanks. I got my inspiration from this:

No worries.
There's no sign of Reeve supplies drying up any time soon, so you will always be able to pick a head up.

I like to imagine him wearing costumes from alternate Superman characters.
Suits Reeve never wore, but some Superman from the comics did.
Like Justice Lords, or the SR suit. There are no rules with customs.

Oh I agree. I'm kinda leaning in the direction of Red son.

Tony Meis can likely hook you up with a suit.

Are you referring to the Justice Lords one?
I made that for my Brother for his birthday last year.
He's a BIG Superman collector...
