Got mine today. Looks amazing so far. At first glance the padding looks the same as what came with Anton.

Was so excited I received my H+C set today before going off to work but I also paid for the tshirt/short set and did not receive it. Did anyone else have this issue? I have emailed Rainman but am awaiting a response.
Yep, same issue here. I just shot him an e-mail myself.
 
I super glued the neck adapter to the head, the body i'm using is a TT advanced.

Thanks, i bought a eb mib suit to put in, but i'm considering buy a tt to put with the suit, i found one eb body avaiable, but i think will be more dificult to buy one eb neck adapter to glue the head.., i only in doubt wich type of tt fits nicer in the eb suit..

Darn that's annoying...mine is already stuck in customs and if its missing the tshirt order that would be most annoying...
 
Trying to put this guy together tonight in-between screaming baby episodes. I got two Aeon heads, and one of the heads has brighter blue eyes than the other. Which is cool, because I can choose which one to go with. Also, the new Truetype foot connectors need to have little pegs in the bottom whittled off to be compatible with Rainman footwear. Not a big deal, but something I hadn't noticed before with official Truetypes.
 
Terrible photo but this is the pose I ended up going with.

Shows Vincent with his jacket open while hiding the snap and I think it looks cool haha.

Got this guy together finally, and he sure is a beaut. I initially had reservations with the choice, but with everything put together the simplicity really works. This is a classy, high end piece of art, and the product shows this all the way including the classic look of the character. I wouldn't feel nearly this satisfied with Iminime handling the release. This is really the kind of figure that reminds me why I'm into these damned things to begin with. Magnet in the jacket would have been nice, but otherwise a home run.

By the way, I tried the Lector fat suit and it was just too bulky for the outfit to work. Pants wouldn't button easily and jacket was too hard to try and force on. I think it actually gives you a better impression for Travolta's real girth than the Rainman foam, but outfit just won't allow it without putting a strain on it that I wasn't willing to risk.
 
I still think iminime would have done a fine job if they focused on improving their suit tailoring, but I think the hair could have given them problems. Not enough credit to Rainman for how he designed/attached the hair for this guy!

That said... I'm ecstatic for iminime's fight club figures. Love the Marla from Rainman, but the others (IMO) remind me of how much even Rainman has improved. From great to amazing!
 
I'm really into some of what Iminime are doing as well (I fully intend to get Narrator, Durden, and McClane). But the material in the clothing alone makes a world of difference. Thinking of the cheap suits the Seven guys and Ra's have versus what Vincent has is no competition whatsoever.

Two heads with slightly different paintwork--difference is actually more dramatic in-hand without flash:

I never got a chance to get R'as or the Se7en guys. Got pics of their suits for comparison?

You really also need to check out Memento. Lenny with Trevor Grove sculpting is going to be awesooooome!
 
That's a bummer. But, it will be worth the wait. By the way, I suggest folks take care with these heads. I wouldn't put them on a table like I did in that picture I took. One strand of hair touches the ground and apparently breaks off by the slightest touch. Just a small little speck of a point actually, but still.
 
This really is a stunning figure in hand. I finally got my H+C set put together. Now time to futz around and get a pose I'm happy to stick with. Also, I want to thank Rainman and whoever runs his website publically. My short/tshirt set was not shipped with the rest of my set and I have received nothing but spectacular customer service from them and they are getting the short/tshirt set put in the mail right away. Congrats to all who got or are getting this set.
