Before there was only Sideshow doing high end 1/4 collectibles but now the competition is strong with Queen studios, Darkside, Prime1, XM, Blitzway, Iron Studios and so on.

If you want to stay in the game you should never deliver a piece like this... huge visible seam, low quality logo on the back and a iffy portrait... I believe this will be on Sideshow seconds before the end of the year and a 35% off will be given by next Sideshow event or black sale...

But maybe I'm wrong.. maybe it is a very nice piece and lots of people will buy it. But regardless, 6000 is a very high ES so I think it will be there for a few years....

Ha! They're making 6,000 of this piece of garbage?

This will be like their atrocious Gal Gadot WW that they're still trying to get rid of 4 years later.

An excellent opportunity to improve the sewing skills

Good point. The funny thing is - if SSC had an in house painter fix the paint on the Gadot head sculpt, I actually think they could sell that piece as the rest of it is fine IMO.

Very true. Or at a substantial enough discount, it could be fine as is.

This Superman is rough all around IMHO. Not just one problem to deal with.

This looked terrible at Comic Con 2022, especially around any of the other pieces.

Really want a Reeve in my collection but this one is a total failure. Cape looks like one of those cheap toys and the horrendous neck seam.

Hope DS come out with one soon. Picked this bust up last week. Will do for now until there is a good 1/4 one

I believe the best Reeve statue/bust I’ve ever seen is that custom bust that I saw on Mr X’s channel.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

The degree of my disappointment for this CR Superman statue from SSC has just multiplied exponentially after I've learned about Arnie Kim and his work. It sickens me.
