C'mon now. It's no Lion-O. Or Deathstroke. Or Legendary Scale Batman.

I'm pretty impressed by it, and will eventually get one. Only thing negative to me is it will have an obscene ES like the first trinity.

I agree that it looks fantastic and the chin is not odd. But I'm not surprised collectors are going on about it. Revisits quite often get further scrutinised. It's just the nature of the game.

I couldn't agree with you more SLO_MO or said it any better. And not everyone is hating on it, I'm not. I think it's the best Superman sculpt done to date and I can't wait to own it. If I was to hope for one change it would be a better quality cape but other than that I'm all in.

I love this Superman. This my favorite 1/4 sculpt out there. I agree that the chin looks weird from that over the should position, but I'll never display it like that.

I know I was being way critical and obnoxious. When I was posting earlier about this statue. But to avoid certain positions when displaying a statue because of poor features in certain areas. IMO is just not proper. Especially when playing high dollar for it. Sorry about being a jerk before with my posts. I'll keep my future posts mature and less polarizing.
The reason I'm so opinionated regarding this piece is because of the want and excitement of this piece coming and the utter deflation of hope when I saw the profile sculpt upon it's availability. The body sculpt is epic and the profile is so disappointing. This is just my opinion.

This does look amazing!

Chin doesn’t bother me as it’s not from a angle you would display him.

There must be statue we previously have that body parts looks odd from curtain angles.

But to me that is compromising. If you have to turn a 600 dollar statue a certain way or angle to hide a flaw. I'm new to this hobby so I want it to be great from all angles. Especially when paying lots of money for it. But that doesn't mean I'm right or I'm wrong.
