Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

This is the best Flash on the market, period. Ignoring the anatomy proportions nonsense, it is concerning regarding the extreme ambition of the pose angle, fearing breakage or leaning down the road. But, if SS can pull this off, it will open up a whole new and exciting realm of posing possibilities. Can’t wait to see what SS have in store.

Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

Well there isn’t much in the market so sure, best flash lol. This statue is not perfect and I have issues with the open hand look of it. Would be great if there was clear resin used in this.

Regardless if not many Flash statues are available on the market, this will be considered as one of the best for a long time. The anatomy and detailing are stunning. The pose is well, perfect, executed to the highest degree, just look at images of real runners.

Open hand(s) while running reflect reality, so what is the problem?

As for your reference to clear resin(?), not sure what you mean. If you are suggesting that this master sculpt can be improved by adding tacky lightening bolts(?), you are sorely mistaken.

A good sculpt starts with line and form, captures a character’s essence through portrait, and brings sculpt to life with fine plausible detailing. This sculpt hits all the marks, so you don’t need all the noise with useless switch outs, and tacky, cheap looking gimmicks.

Meh. Doesn’t convey super speed imo.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Also doesn’t fit with the rest of the line, at all.

Agreed. I think it’s a nice piece for a stand alone statue but I wouldn’t want to display it with either the old PFs or even the new PFs. It just doesn’t seem to fit with either imo.

All that said I still may pick one up as I don’t display in group settings.

Couldn't disagree more. He looked perfect next to Green Arrow at SDCC.
