Re: Superman EX - Do you like the Fame eyes or not

JAWS up know I respect you m8, and that I think everyone has a right to their opinion. If this gets changed I won't be crushed ... Especially if Jorge's work is any indication of what it will look like:wink1:

Yeah. I have no issues with someone deffending this piece. If you like then defend away. I don't know why anyone would not want some good hearted debate.

We can all agree that this Superman is a WIN. Just some of us find it to be 95% win and others find it to be 100%

I am in the 95% win camp and it's why I am on this kick to get it changed.

With the red eyes only look it could be 110% win and that is what I hope we get. I don't care if it's an extra head or if they just ditch the flame effect. To me they took what is an amazing sculpt and put something on it that will distract you from the sculpt. That is a no no.

I agree. If SS can adjust this Ex (just to remind new people reading this, they did it for Green Lantern's and Cobra Commander's PFs) then this would be IMHO one of the BEST PFs SS has ever done. Superman deserves better and I really hope they get this right. Nothing wrong in admitting you can do better and upping this PF a notch SS. :lecture SS already nailed it by changing the Reg portrait, now the same needs to be done for the Ex. :) Heading out now all, but look forward to reading your thoughts later. :peace
 
Well i know im new here but this is my two cents on the matter. Sideshow is getting cheap. This is an amazing statue with amazing portraits and the exclusive is an easy way out imho. Everyone wanted/expected light up heat vision for the EX. Or atleast red eyes. What they came
up with here again in my opinion is a cheap alternative. They seem to be good at that recently (rhino). If they dont change this i think we will see many damaged deliveries coming our way.

Re: Superman EX - Do you like the Fame eyes or not

When you look at the EX head what's the first thing that comes to mind? I think the most common answer I've seen has been ,"it looks like his eyes have been poked out." :thud:

I think so too. I applaud the effort :clap of SS to do something different, but the reaction hasn't been positive. :lecture It's a prototype in pre-order so we know they can easily change it and I think they should change it if they're monitoring customer feedback. Give us what we want if you can help it. That's what a cool company would do. :dunno We'll see. :)

Hey new or old ALL pinions are valid and important. My two cents is it is the opposite of them being cheap though. Red painted eyes would be easier and cheaper SO they took a chance, but many don't think it paid off. However, as for a light up feature a lot of people don't want that either. I am not sure if there is a proper answer at this point.

Yes there is. Just paint the eyes red.

Put up another poll with "What would be your choice"

Light up eyes
Noodles
Paint

I'll bet you my noodles (with fast shipping) 70% will tick red paint.

Sorry I ment an answer that 95% of people.
 
Re: Superman EX - Do you like the Fame eyes or not

I voted that I don't like the look of the exclusive, but I admire that they tried something new. Also, who knows if it will look better in person. Still, I would want just red eyes, and I do think those things will break in shipping.
 
Re: Superman EX - Do you like the Fame eyes or not

In my opinion the person who thought of the ex version, and the person who approved it are totally lost in the brainpan. And no, I don't feel bad for dissing you, whomever you are.

I would have ordered the regular instead but the savings don't generally do much for me in the end.
At last. We can hope for some changes now since BG has spoken.

LOLol. First I couldn't stop laughing at your eyes-out Supes signature pic and now this. Can't change myself to look at the EX normally now. Brilliant.
 
Re: Superman EX - Do you like the Fame eyes or not

bought the ex, dislike the heat vision aesthetic effect though. doesn't look right, hope it gets revised and removed on the final product.
 
Re: Superman EX - Do you like the Fame eyes or not

I don't even like light up features on 1:6 figures. It would look exceptionally stupid on this.

Also, Christopher Reeve PF <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< flame eyes
 
Re: Superman EX - Do you like the Fame eyes or not

WOW the poll results are overwhelmingly against the ill-conceived exclusive eye steam.

But if people keep placing orders for it then Sideshow has no reason to change it.

A vote with your wallet would have been better than voting on an internet forum.
 
Re: Superman EX - Do you like the Fame eyes or not

They've made changes before based on customer out cry. So it's possible. I somehow doubt it though. We'll see.
