Official 12" Hot Toys Superman returns Image Thread!

[cr0w]

Finally got my hands on one thanks to a generous boardie (Echo 7). I really love this guy. In pictures his head always looked too big and his body too skinny, but aside from stuffing a little cotton in his shoulder/traps area, I'm 100% happy with his proportions. The entire figure is just phenomenal. I kind of went a little crazy and am going to end up with two of these guys, so whenever the second arrives I'll be able to display Clark as well.

I think the Superman dolls are among the most fun to pose. . .

cool pics of Sups

 

[Bruce Kent]

Hi, No. I just got one the other day, but don't think I want to take the suit off the one I have and put it on the Leonidas body. I am sure that would be a better fit and much more possable, too....

 

[villainsfan42]

honestly, the puffiness of the shirt doesnt thrill me, but that pose is awesome. consider that pose stolen.

 

[dragonsleeper]

Is it possible to switch this with the upcoming true type articulated muscle body?

 

[SanShouXMA]

Yes it is. Thats what i did with mine, and it looks amazing.

 

[ferrod]

Yes it is. Thats what i did with mine, and it looks amazing.

I wouldnt even try to put the suit on that body. If you are going to swap, use a Wesker TT body that is coming out.

@cr0w...he looks amazing...I've got him in a very similar pose as well. He looks awesome when hes posed in a serious look. I still think that version 2 headsculpt is superior to version 1. I think when V2 released they bumped up the headsculpt quality to the fine texture on the face and detailed hair. That was a big deciding factor cause the rest of my collection started after they did the better headsculpt. Back that, even for Hot Toys the paint quality was comparable to nowadays sideshow face paints, which is a bad thing. Smooth headsculpts looking like barbie dolls. Hot Toys have come a long way and the new Chris Reeve needed to be released at the right time, I wouldnt buy it if the headsculpt was the same quality as version 1.

 

[ferrod]

nice. would've been nice if we can view it. i think superman returns 1/6 scale is the most underrated toy of HOT toys. it's nice and all. but becoz of the body size, some collectors aren't just as excited with the whole aspect of the figure. but for me.... it's still top notch. hope they make a re-release and put some new body in it. be fitting to Routh's proportions.

thanks.,

Its a 2 in 1 Superman on a Wesker body with a Clark Kent head.

 

[JQuest64]

Great looking figure

 

[karamazov80]

Repaint that head, man!

 

[cr0w]

Just got my second 2-in-1 in today, and I'm thinking about selling off the extra Supes and Clark heads I'm not using. Would anyone here be interested in them?

 

[Iceberg66]

Repaint that head, man!

You're right, Kara. I'd paint mine.

Is there sewing involved in this conversion? I hope not

 

[SanShouXMA]

Yup there is. The whole suit is sewn together. The only way to convert it is to un-stitch the suit and sew it back up.

Repaint that head, man!

I would repaint the head but I have no painting skills. The only way to do it is to pay someone to paint it for me, and for right now it's too expensive to pay for it. cheapest I've found is about $65 to repaint. If you could recommend someone that would do it for cheaper I actually have 4 heads I need repainting.

 

[ericvalenz]

Pardon the interruption. I need a repaint too. I have a Superman/Batman project. I have a SS Admiral Thrawn head that i need to turn into Supes. I'm using the arnie's t-800 body. Dc direct's suit seem to fit it perfectly. @sansouxma, who offers the $65 repaint? I cant paint n sculpt as well. Thanks.
