I think I'm definitely going to open my package of nitrile gloves before I remote Super from his package.

I had my Superman for the last two years and I just accidentally snagged his suit. I don't want to have to buy a whole new figure at this point, any advice?

Although it will probably come down to me buying another, if anyone has one in good condition PM me.

How bad is the snag?

How bad is the snag?

Probably 2/3 of an inch across on his waist, now it's full of snags after removing the suit... I forgotten what a death trap it is to even mess with this thing. This is my replacement Supe that I've had since release.

I pray they do a DX version.

I'd LOVE a DX version of the Christopher Reeve Superman!!

And if it's made, they need to not use the same super fragile material they used for the body suit.

Very true. I always handle mine wearing black tattoo gloves. Awesome gloves for handling this figure... And tattooing! Lol

I have a spare superman suit i bought from a member here for $60. There is the tiniest run showing on the right leg which you only see when the suit is off a figure, and a small stain just above the waist that once again only seems visible when the suit is contracted off a body.
I used to have it on a TTM19 with a Routh head:

So you can only see the issues when the suit is off but when it's own it looks flawless?

Pretty much. The small stain on the suit is visible in those images i posted above. But unless you know where to look, it just looks like a shadow.

There are also sellers selling mint ones on Ebay.

my only gripe on this is you can't put his arms close to his sides

Not everyone would know him as Bomber or Pat Roach.
I thought "The nazi who fought Indiana Jones at the flying wing" would get more recognition lol.
How many people reading this know who Bomber is?

I dose my lovely

"working on the site from morning to night, that's living alright"

Ahh memories have the first and 2nd series on dvd.

"Barry you radish"
Like those clark kent glasses with the extra bar where are they from?
Might do a clark kent sometime if I can get some bloody money together to finnish off the rest.

I was wondering, I haven't seen Superman III and IV since I was a kid (early 90's) and I do have the anthology blu ray for ages now but haven't gotten around watching them. I adore the 1st movie to no end, didn't like both versions of Superman II even though I've watched both versions last year I've forgotten most of the scenes. (sorry.)

I watched Superman Returns once. I've just finished rewatching the entire animated series though. So should I watch II, IV and Returns? I've heard so many bad things about them and I don't wanna ruin the perfect image of the 1st movie in my mind.

II is okay. Could have been better, could have been worse.
Superman Returns is my favourite because it's not only more contemporary, but is notable for showing his frailties as well as his strength.
A good story has it's characters weaknesses laid bare and i like Superman Returns for this facet more than anything else.
But burn the disc for Superman IV...

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

Something about Richard Pryor's performance rubs me the wrong way. (No offense to him though). The ONLY scene I remember is the evil Superman fight. God I'm senile.

EDIT: My bad, I thought you wrote "III."

Superman Returns is my favourite because it's not only more contemporary, but is notable for showing his frailties as well as his strength.

I watched it once in 2007 while hanging out with buddies at a bar but I hated Superman had a son and that turned me off big time. But I've also forgotten the movie and I think I should give it another chance.

But burn the disc for Superman IV...

That bad huh?

So far my 2nd favorite Superman movie has to be All-Star. My God it nearly moved me to tears but I was surprised that many people hated it. (for the record I have the graphic novel), and Christopher Drake has to be the new Superman composer from now on- his work on that film was absolutely beautiful.

All star is good. There's a bit more in the graphic novel as you well know.
My favourite Superman story is in Superman/Batman, when Lara comes to Earth and brings all the kryptonite with her.
The government stockpile and the mountains of it under the sea were cool touch.
Give Superman Returns a watch if you can spare the time to watch it all the way through. In my eyes it's the first story i had seen with him seeming vulnerable. Most stories have him being totally invulnerable. It's a great dichotomy. A guy who is strong enough to throw the earth into the sun able to have his heart broken by a woman. We've all been there(The heart broken part. Not tossing the earth into the sun...).

Sound intriguing. I guess I'll do a III, IV, Returns marathon tomorrow. There are also plenty of bonuses on the Anthology set that I've checked out. This has to be one of the most generous blu ray boxsets ever.

Which is why Mask of the Phantasm is my all time favorite Batman movie, way better than TDKR in my opinion.

It's a great set, for sure. Let us know your thoughts when you've watched them.
