1/6 MMS216 - Man of Steel: General Zod Collectible Figure

[Helghan]

Can't argue with that!

I third that!

 

[The Iron Koob]

Well I caved and ordered, now to try and forget about it

 

[moose]

This is because all persons of discretion and taste want Zod on their shelves.

No doubt about that

 

[jra81984]

Just ordered as well! Can't wait!

 

[mr.fan]

awesome awesome figure The helmet on = total badassery

 

[snoop101]

Zod is back up for PO at bbts.

 

[jedibear]

PO'd him....

I like it a lot. I don't mind the expressive sculpt, but I wish they would include an alternate one that had a more neutral (but stern - it is Zod after all...pretty serious guy) expression, but it looks good.

I'm with those who wish there was an environmental-styled base..rubble or something. Don't mind the chevron, but wish HT would include "basic" stands too,with every release....

Wonder if they've got Fiora on deck next....

Guess I'll be leaving the helmet on him when displaying them all together. Looks like he's peeping on Superman.

 

[ShadowX81]

Im going to wait for the non-armored version with a hopefully more neutral expression.

I still think it was a stupid idea to give Kryptonians armor. Besides not making any sense, its way too over designed and the elephant tusk helmet makes him look like that alien thing from Prometheus

 

[juicemaster310]

This looks great.

 

[The Iron Koob]

That's not a good pose for that expression

THAT PIC IS HILARIOUS!!! Owner's pix are going to be pretty funny, I bet. With that said he is still gorgeous.

On the other hand the likeness looks fantastic... I dunno, that pics really pumping me up for the figure. Makes me want supes too, but I think I'll just get Zod. He'll look great next to Bane as I don't have a batman fig. Villains shelf on the way ^_^

LOL Pervert Zod

If they were going for the creeper Zod look, they should have done this one instead:

 

[Burning Saber]

This is the problem I believe some people have when Hot Toys does these expression faces. The majority of people display museum style, which requires a neutral expression. Anything else ends up looking derpy and doesn't go with the rest of their set up. Zod screams action pose with that head sculpt; I think if displayed in a mid air fight scene, Superman and Zod will look awesome together. Standing side by side in a detolf ... not so much. I understand completely why some people are upset with the expression choice, but personally I'm willing to set my display according to the needs of my figures rather than setting my figures to the needs of my display. I'm perfectly fine with this head sculpt, I think Zod looks awesome and if I can get him posed right, I think it will look completely kick ***. The only thing I'm a little disappointed with, is because of the armour, I was hoping he would have had articulated fingers.

 

[Silasya77]

Only nitpick I could really find in my own opinion is the lack of light up eyes..

 

[DGTWoodward]

I don't recall clearly...wasn't Avengers Loki sold out on PO, then back available again about three times, then there was the continually increasing and decreasing (not to say laughable) numbers of the 'Low Quantity' alerts.

Did that bleed over into his 'in stock' period? I don't think it did.

@ GasparZ...

I have not seen that guy for ages! That's funny, thanks for the reminder.

Completely agree with everything you said. Good post
