Hey all, I've got a thread in the Commerce section about two auctions, one of Marlon Brando Jor-el and Clark Kent from the Superman Returns hot toys line. Check it out in the Commerce Section. Cheers
Sorry to resurrect this ancient thread (which I'm amazed even still existed), but I finally got around to updating my Routh Supes using Waruna's sculpt. It's still on the stock body, but only after being heavily modified and buffed up to try to better match his physique. I also switched out with seamless arms and lengthened the legs.
That looks really, really good! I’d definitely buy this again if HT upgraded the body and sculpt.
Thanks! And yeah this is another figure I really wish they'd revisit someday.
looks good man! i have a soft spot for the routh supes lol
Incredible work!
I got that head too, but have yet to get it painted. Do you mind me asking who you got to paint yours?

This looks great. One question, how did you get the suit off?
The suit is in two parts. Shirt and trousers. The seam is concealed with the belt. Take that off and you will have to undo the stitching to get it all apart.

That looks great, although I can’t unsee the ears on that sculpt.
Best I’ve seen however, congrats.

Thanks. And I just got myself to paint it.
I guess that's one way, but I just cut down the back of the suit and pulled the whole thing off that way, so I could keep the suit as tight as possible on him, and since the cape covers up his back anyway. Then I just sealed the outfit back up afterwards with some double-sided tape.

Well, that is incredible work. Well done!
I have a couple of Routh Superman figures, but it would break my heart to cut that suit! Even if i was the only one who knew it was cut, lol.
Amazing work DaveJames! 
love your paint apps on that sculpt as well. I have W2's painted version but have felt like something was off. You've captured Routh really well. And the work on the body looks just as good. Nicely done!
This really make me want to get back to work on mine
You could do like i did and just undo the stitching behind the belt where the lower half of the suit combines with the upper half. It's a natural seam and you just sew it backup like it was before. It's a bit more of a pain but you won't have a seam down the back.

Thanks! And yeah it's always a bit painful to damage any one of these outfits, but the original body and proportions were so awful that I just had to do something.
If that’s what the HT version looked like stock, it’d be an easy purchase. Great work.
Hello, and Happy New Year to all, I am new to this site, and am interested in purchasing a really good screen-accurate Brandon Routh Superman Returns at a reasonable cost. Can someone assist here please? Thanks very much,
