Gott DAM! That mawfakka is HUGE! He could eat that poor little dame for dinner!

I know. It's an impressive sight to see him in armour.

I like it but maybe I'll wait for the black suit or removable armor version of Zod.

The armour does come off. Just pops off the body. It's held in place with poppers and rubber glue.

So what's the suit underneath look like? Is it on ebay?

Yes. It's basically the Superman suit with all the ribbing, no glyph or belt buckle, but with a zip up the back.

I wonder what the deal is with not putting the glyph's on the suits for Jor-EL or Zod. C'MON HT quite playing with my emotions!!!

My Brother's review is up.

Just finished watching... Never realized that was your brother man, he's an awesome reviewer.

if you do end up casting it in clear resin would you try and get the flesh look underneath?

also love the Fringe quote in your sig

Thanks. I am sure he will enjoy hearing that.

I have absolutely *zero* skills casting in clear.
Although i *considered* the clear casting idea(And didn't think he would be telling people we talked about it, lol), i was going to ask a friend in Canada to do the job.
My idea was mainly going to be to get the helmet in clear, and very lightly wash the top layer in a few layers to gove the impression there is something underneath.
But it would be impossible to paint in skin underneath.

also love the Fringe quote in your sig

It's a quote from Thor 2.
But it's possible they homaged a line from Fringe(Which i have never watched).

I could swear that was form fringe when the other side starts poking holes in the fabric of their universe... Gunna have to rewatch. though I do remeber it from thor 2 as well lol

Yeah you could cast in clear and hollow out underneath... then paint it and then put in a new neck plug..? just a thoughy

They might have paraphrased the line in Thor. You never know.

Well painting from the inside is a skilled job beyond my experience.
But it could be cast in clear easily enough.

Zod's cape looks like the capes that SSC screwed up with Vader!

 

[amusedjester]

What I'm really afraid of this figure, is how the armor material is going to interact with the rubbery surface of the cloth underneath in time. I still had to get it but it's just one of those things that are freaking me out.

That doesn't sound good, especially with the heat we have here (bkk) and that rubber thingy in the hs....
Anyway, that was a very in-dept review there. Thanks for doing and sharing it here.

I've heard (read) about a this neutral expression quite often, is there really someone doing it or is it just
what people are hoping for and kept repeating till it seems that way?
