Pretty good deal!

I know I couldn't believe it when I saw the price. He is a hard one to come by under $200. I just checked the tracking number and it is scheduled for deliver tomorrow by 10:30am. The seller overnighted it to me. I also have the hot toys batpod scheduled for delivery on Thursday this week.

V1 Clark and Supes are far superior to the 2 in 1.

What do you like about V1 Supes over the 2 in 1 Supes?
In the pics I have seen I like the head better on the 2 in 1.

No, I have to agree with Snake Eater. I have all the HT Supermen, and the V1sculpts are really better. It's only hidden under an inferior paint job and less skin texture, but the faces are more accurate!

I take the V1 Clark headsculpt over the V2 but not the V1 superman headsculpt. Some might say the underlying headsculpt of supes is more Routhesque than the V2 and maybe they're right but since I can't do repaints and would never send it away for one I'll stick with V2 for its superior paint and skin texture.

I'm not sure the V1 Superman hs is different from the one included in the V1 CK box! The difference is just the paint! V2 is a great hs, but he doesn't look like routh IMHO.

I don't have the original HT superman but I think the extra headsculpt that came with V1 clark is pretty crap - at least in its paintjob. The eyebrows are painted so high up that they look like an old lady's fake eyebrows.

 

[**16k**]

True!

Like I said! Great sculpt, bad painting! If I wasn't collecting and wanted my stuff to remain original, I would have repainted it entirely!

I got my 2 in 1 superman today. I have to say I like the 2-1 version much better. It looks far more realistic than the original version. The body seems a little different as well. Did they use the same body for both?

I agree. Been saying this all along. The V1 Supes Sculpt is a better representation of Brandon. The V1 CK is also a better sculpt than the CK 2 in 1.

My V1 Sculpt painted by FML...

 

[rw23]

Yeah the v1 sculpt with proper paint looks ace! Wonder how the v2 would look painted up?

 

[POWER1010]

Sadly I missed out on all of these and just checked ebay again, wow these guys are going for pretty big money, especially when converted to Canadian $$$

 

[OSCORP]

DC and Marvel in the same picture.....Oh my!

 

[Devil_666]

Will you be replacing the Medicom Wolvie when HT makes theirs?

 

[OSCORP]

Not at all just gonna add HT to the mix. Medicom wolvie kicks too much ass. (well maybe if they added the X3 suit but i doubt they are)

 

[unmc2001]

I just picked up a Medicom Wolverine X3 off Ebay. Hopefully I have it by the end of the week. He looks great.

 

[karamazov80]

I agree. Been saying this all along. The V1 Supes Sculpt is a better representation of Brandon. The V1 CK is also a better sculpt than the CK 2 in 1.

More evidence:

Took this shot a few weeks ago. I used a dark blue background over a wall of boxes and placed the fig about halfway up to create a flying or supended in air effect. Anyway, gave it a go.

And yes, it is a V1 Routh Repaint. Again, the best Routh Likeness IMO. I don't think there's much doubt.

 

[firefly2121]

WOW...that looks very nice...I wish I had one.

 

[Iceberg66]

Nice pose, pjam.
I repaint mine also. I like the CK's superman head sculpt than the 2in1 ver.

I have the Hot Toys Jor-El and love it! I got it for an awesome price too, but I searched forever to get one. I switched the waist stand out with the modern leg stand so his robes would flow better.

I wish he had come with the crystal scepter. Thought about customizing one.
