Too bad the word that those people that actually have it like it a lot doesn't spread as rapidly as the chicken littles that don't have it and are determined to make the worst of a good item.

The people I see complaining on FB are the ones who always complain about Sideshow regardless of what they've done lol.

I haven't taken any pics of mine yet, but I like the statue. When it's sitting on the shelf it looks great. I need to figure out how I want to pose the cape--right now it's basically hanging off him but it still looks good. Is it worth $400? I don't really think so considering the difference in quality between it and the superior comic Superman PF. However, I got a good deal on mine though so I'm happy with what I paid. At the end of the day, it looks great on my shelf and I'm glad I picked it up.

Yeah I would love to see this in hand, hopefully my LCS will get it in.
That's your opinion, but since Remy has confirmed what I thought, I believe my observation is correct. BTW sorry about the long paragraphs, I just feel the need to vent because I am pissed off still. However, from now on I try will and keep this as brief as possible.
Personally, I think it looks at home next to the other PFs because the paint job is the same quality as the paint job on other PFs.
So are you saying it has a stone look appearance?
Maybe so, but I still prefer how the proto looks, for reasons, I will no longer go into again.
Ok then what is their reason for making the CR PVC to then? Sorry I don't buy their explanation.
Well they are morons for thinking that, but I must admit it really is a nice looking suit but no way am I spending that much on a statue just because the suit looks nice.
If they do that again after CR, I am sure there will be trouble. I think they realize now that trying to use PVC for statues is a

I think we're pretty much agreeing on most of these points, DA. Don't think for a minute that I'm saying that you shouldn't be letting us know what you think. I'm happy to read your opinions here. And if brevity is a virtue, its one I clearly don't possess.
The only thing I'm trying to do, as one who owns this piece, is come is and let folks know when what they're assuming doesn't jibe with what I'm seeing since I have the piece right here in front of me. So:
1. The paint apps make the face and hands look just like the face/hands of my polystone pieces. You CAN find the seems lines if you're looking for them, but this detail is virtually invisible when viewing the piece "normally".
2. The paint job is on par with the other PFs I own. A few steps down from the proto (as expected), and nowhere near the Hot Toy's awsomehood.
3. I like the way the proto was done in terms of the musculature better too, because I like a more idealized Supes. But the production is more screen accurate.

Yeah man I am not trying to start a debate or say you are wrong, I just don't like what I see. It's just personal preference. The difference between the proto and final product is like night and day for me. However, it is still not a bad piece, unlike that Batman PF disaster.
I mainly agree with all the points you mentioned but it is just not the musculature of the suit, it is the fact that the suit doesn't look like it is sculpted on there like most PFs do. As far as the final product being more screen accurate as far as musculature goes, I will take your word for it.
I know SS Alex said that she thinks only the head is PVC and the body is polystone but that has yet to be confirmed. Judging from the pose the whole body would have to be PVC because if it was polystone the whole statue would tip over as it would be top heavy. Unless they can some how make the body lighter than than the base by making it hollow and the base solid cast.

Yeah, I have a very hard time believing that CR Supes is going to be anything but a full PVC cast head to toe. Just don't see how its possible otherwise. But SS does deal in Magic, so who knows...
One thing I think we can say for sure, however, is that sometimes SS CS reps operate on a wing and a prayer in terms of the info the disseminate, and their info is often inaccurate (no fault of their own), or at least no up to date.

I printed a couple of Backdrops.
I had a few that were more of a MOS posters, but for now, I kinda settled for this snow scene
to Re-enact the Snowy mountain First flight scene.
Kinda looked like he landed at some rocky areas and about to take flight again.
