The heat vision head looks great on this. And I love the movement effects on the bullets and rockets. I am not a gun expert, but is that what a bullet looks like after it's left the barrel? These look like the casing is still attached.

Yeah that’s definitely a mistake, but I guess someone contacted them about it and they replied it was the artist’s interpretation or something so they’re not fixing them.

It seems like this just isn't going to your cup of tea no matter what, but I would encourage you to look through all the photos they posted on their site. They obviously couldn't have bullets floating in the air, but as you turn around the statue, from certain angles the bullets do appear like they are going straight at him. I think there is some genius perspective work going on in this piece that people may have not noticed yet.

It really isn't my cup of tea though you're right that you can get a bit more out of it by changing the angle.

You are correct. Bit of a silly oversight there, especially since the bullets weren't represented like that on the comic cover they're replicating. Apparently they're being thrown at Superman and not fired from a gun.

That's pretty ridiculous. I don't think "artist's interpretation" covers a fundamental misunderstanding of how real world items function.

One example:

We did spend a lot of time working on the perspective. Thank you for noticing

Amazing job on this.
If I collect statues, I would have definitely picked this up.
I mainly collect 1/6 hot toys.

The headsculpt is definitely one of the best portrait of Superman I've seen. And that base is magnificent.

Any chance there will be similar style statues for Batman and Wonder Woman?

I don’t think it’s that ridiculous as unfortunately/fortunately a lot of people don’t actually know what a bullet actually looks like. They probably just did a simple google search to make a 2D item on the page 3D and replicated the first search without doing further research.

Though even I admit it’s pretty obvious something was odd, even with my near total lack of knowledge of bullets...everything I know I think I learned from watching CSI

Coming from the UK I honestly didn't know the difference lol

Is great that they're providing both styles for the more picky gun nuts

You don't have to be a "gun nut" to know that the casing doesn't travel with the bullet. Once you're aware of it, it looks quite stupid.
