Re: Hot Toys-MMS20(?)-Superman III- 1/6th Scale Evil Superman Collectible Figure.

They could have made this a 2-Pack with Clark Kent ala Demon Bats & Scarecrow. Maybe then everyone would've been happy?

Nah...

I predict it'd go something like this:

"WTF HOT TOYS!?!???? Y U MAKE DIS EXCLUSIV???":gah:

"Seriously, that was really stupid on their part. They could've made a killing on a Kent figure by himself."

"Why do I have to buy that ****ty Superman III figure to get Clark Kent? This is bull****!"

"Everyone calm down, I'm sure there will be plenty enough for everybody."

"I really hope this isn't more than $400.:("

"This sucks. Where's my John Blake, Hot Toys?"

"Stupid figure. Pass."

"**** YOU, HOT TOYS! WHY YOU DON'T DISTRIBUTE TF EXCLUSIVE TO MY COUNTRY??? OH WELL, I GUESS GO TO EBAY NOW.:( :( :( :(."

"I hope all of the scalpers die in a fire."

"Damn, I really wanted a Clark Kent figure, too. I just can't see myself paying that much money for both figures. Congrats to those who are getting it, though."

:lol Yeah, pretty much.
 
Re: Hot Toys-MMS20(?)-Superman III- 1/6th Scale Evil Superman Collectible Figure.

That's a theory but why would DC not approve that? If I were them, I would think it was BA and make it a must-have for my MoS figures!

Licensors can be weird like that and want consistency across the line.
 
Re: Hot Toys-MMS20(?)-Superman III- 1/6th Scale Evil Superman Collectible Figure.

I see lots of complaints about this, but I wonder what the reaction would've been if it was "Clark Kent (Oil Rig Rescue Version)" from Man of Steel, complete with raincoat, shirt, ball cap, Command Key, and two pairs of pants (one scorched )pair?

I can see that hence why Superman and Jor-El have the same base essentially.

There's always going to be a bunch of people who have no interest, clogging any thread up with their waste of time "I will not buy this" comments.
You have to be used to it by now!
:rotfl
Oh, and i would have pre-ordered a "Rescue On The Oil Rig" Clark in a second, lol.

People would of lost their minds. Did you read how many accessories you just listed?

Nope, I kind of zoned out.:lol

EDIT: Just read it. That was pretty much 100% outfit, with no accessories listed.

Yeah something like that would suck if it were an exclusive because that's something people (myself included) would want. This is something that the die hard fans really want so it makes sense as an exclusive. I actually want that figure though now, damn you :p

:lol It would be pretty neat. I wonder how they'd hide the joints, though.:lol
 
Re: Hot Toys-MMS20(?)-Superman III- 1/6th Scale Evil Superman Collectible Figure.

very cool!!! love the idea of the evil Reeves Superman for a limited edition exclusive. the first Reeves is one of the their best figures IMO so more Reeves is a good thing. It will sell out easily if its only 600 pieces. Hope I can get one!!!

The darkened evil suit is cool because its one of the only variants you can do with Reeves Superman suit. There were really only very slight differences to his suit from all his movies most you cant even see, but this was one of the more obvious differences. The capes they made for Superman the Movie were still being used on the later sequels or some stunt capes had no S on the back. So this is a cool variant i think for Reeves collectors.

Yah would be nice to get Zod or someone else from these films, but maybe in due time.

Freaks are freaks. they will complain about anything. People who love Superman and the Reeves movies will be very happy. If not, then move on and don't buy it. No reason to get all bent out of shape. They arent forcing you. Just move on if your not interested.
 
Re: Hot Toys-MMS20(?)-Superman III- 1/6th Scale Evil Superman Collectible Figure.

This is exactly what a con exclusive should be. An unnecessary but really cool redo. IMO.
 
Re: Hot Toys-MMS20(?)-Superman III- 1/6th Scale Evil Superman Collectible Figure.

this isn't a terrible figure but I can totally see someone who owns the original release looking at this as a waste of an exclusive, I for one love it, its something you would never expect to be made which makes it perfect for an exclusive, this along with the DX14 release has me very excited for what it has in store for the future when it comes to the past

Very accurate lol. This is good for an exclusive IMO. Usually exclusives are just variants of a character already available and that's perfectly OK. Its the times when they're not that kinda bug me.
 
Re: Hot Toys-MMS20(?)-Superman III- 1/6th Scale Evil Superman Collectible Figure.

Damn I want that base for an MoS Superman :gah:

I'm a huge Superman fan. But even I will pass on this one. Its too close to the other Chris Reeve Supes. Like others have said. If they came out with a Clark Kent figure. I would be down for that.
:lecture
Same here

Licensors can be weird like that and want consistency across the line.
It would explain why the majority of the collector based items have the 'S' shield as a base (movie masters, Kotobukiya statue, DCC iconic statues). The only one I can think of that doesn't have a shield base would be the SS PF

I have no quarrel with this release even though I'm more than likely passing. It makes for a great TF EX IMO. But yea, I'd totally buy that MoS Clark Kent you listed :D

I've thought that could be a cool figure myself.
 
Re: Hot Toys-MMS20(?)-Superman III- 1/6th Scale Evil Superman Collectible Figure.

It's funny. I was trying to think of something I'd find to be pretty cool, but most people would find boring, and it wound up backfiring.:lol
