I feel like I've been bamboozled with these large figures(even the smaller ones) over and over again, that I think I'll keep my money in my pockets
 
I think all weathered the way it looks there would make a really cool figure. I don't know if it would fit with the other SSC DC figures though. Looks kinda 'Hot Toyish', but I want it.

If you're talking about the Lex Armour I posted, the question was what I'd maybe spend $500 on. For $500 I'd want something more detailed. I know you like more classic looks Groovy, & that's cool, actually a few of us like that, but I don't think I'm going to spend $500 on a SSC that looks something like this:

It's too basic for $500. Maybe $300 or under, simply because of the size.

If it was fully articulated--again with good AB crunch, able to take a knee, double jointed elbows--I'd buy it in 1-2 heart beats.
 
I don't understand the love for all these super huge armored figures ala the Starcraft suits. Are people supposed to sitting in them in a "starfish" position?? None of them work on a realistic level. There would be no control system that worked for these the way the people inside are positioned.
 
It would be like stipping a car engine taking it apart to paint it...

Looks great Chris! That body looks amazing. Thanks for the heads up!
I just messaged you pics of the head with eyes installed. Let me know if your wife still thinks he's about the cry! I reckon this is a real Fleischer-esque head!

I have to ask. Which body did you use for that Supes? Did you then do modifications?

It's a beast and looks great.

You really don't understand? They're big and cool.

Are people supposed to sitting in them in a "starfish" position??
Yes? No? Does it really matter? Some of them are so huge, it could be starfish position, Maschinen krieger-esque controls, neural link or whatever, it's fantasy.

None of them work on a realistic level.
bruh

And no, it would work, a good concept can work in any way, if you actually mean right now real life realistically realistic, we're barely on the 1st levels of exoskeleton suits, be serious.
There would be no control system that worked for these the way the people inside are positioned.
OR... You have no imagination.

That is pretty damn cool, well done. :rock
 
I paid my superman off last wednesday and asked for a replacement part for my r2d2 and Sideshow said no problem will ship out. Its now Tuesday this week and called to ask sideshow ship my figure out right away. Note to self i hate waiting ,and figured wouldnt be too much of a hassle for sideshow add my xtra rd replacement part with my superman order. Sideshow told me can take up to a week to inspect my r2 replacement part. I dont understand how it takes a week to put a drink tray piece into a box with a order. Sorry 4 Rant just hoping , wishing my superman get's here faster then a speeding bullet. Sick of waiting.:impatient:
