Re: New Doom PF?

Just saying there are MUCH better items they could have included that would have been better for the character, but SS is rewarded for being lazy so they don't need to do anything but.

Re: New Doom PF?

Would love to have confirmation on if the masks are removable or two different heads. 2 heads I'm assuming

I understand that you don't like it. I also get that you think it's lazy on their part. However, can you think of a better EX that is closely associated to Doom? Because the options I've heard...I don't associate with Doom. Cosmic Cube, Infinity Gauntlet, and Ultimate Nullifier are objects that I don't really think are unique or closely tied to Doom. I personally would rather have the gun. An unmasked Doom would have been very cool but this is already an option on the LSF so we can't expect it with the PF.

I'm more than willing to call out SSC on lame EXs (Colossus COM and the Modern Thor PF to name a few) but I honestly don't think the gun is as lame as some EX features I have seen. Are you picking the PF up Spliff or will it be a pass for you?

Re: New Doom PF?

I would assume CoH, otherwise they would have shown the sculpted face. The question is are the back of the heads also armored like the orig PF. I would assume so.

Yeah, I would think that would be a HUGE selling point that would have been previewed on Tues if the masks were removable.

Will be switchout portraits which will be a pain in the arse if need to spend time shaping the wired hood.

Actually...Was going to say removable masks would damage/scuff the face over time but that isn't intended to be displayed, as far as we know so...

Re: New Doom PF?

Doom carries the pistol largely for ceremony. He'll use it in the event that it's more of an inconvenience to not dispatch a non-threat than the inconvenience of ignoring it. 9/10 times if an opposer to Doom isn't worthy of an altercation Doom will swat them away or say something awesome then **** off. Doom feels that ballistic weaponry is barbaric and largely beneath him, and uses it occasionally on foes that fit that criteria. He takes TREMENDOUS pride in his sorcery and tech and would MUCH rather showcase it's feats than stoop to such lowly methods.

Is this you knowing the character from the comics or did you look it up in wiki? No ill intent, just curious....

Unless you get hoods attached to each head

Re: New Doom PF?

Probably 2 separate heads

Re: New Doom PF?

Actuall sounds like the mask switches out and not the whole head...

'interchangeable classic and modern versions of his iconic mask'

If only the eyes are painted and it's not intended to be displayed without a mask this makes sense.

The seam must be way back in there

That would be awesome if his face can be exposed. I still think that they would have let us see that in the preview. Who knows, maybe they'll surprise us.

Re: New Doom PF?

I'm calling magnets to hold the mask.
Should be clearer tomorrow, or later today for me.

Edited that to probably painted eyes only.

Re: New Doom PF?

I think it'll be two masked head sculpts.

SSAlex said on the other forum that there is no unmasked option. Probably it'll be switch-out heads, not just the masks. Too bad.

light up time platform:

i'm only gonna get the PF if they screw up the LSF. for all the issues I have with the LSF once you see it in person and take in the sheer size of it it's kinda hard not to want it lol.

That would have made a GREAT base but I don't think they would have been able to pull that off as an EX feature.

I think the LSF will turn out fantastic. I won't be picking it up for a few reasons (space, money, no ES) but I still think it may turn out to be the very best statue SSC ever put out. I really like it that much.
