Rocafort Man of Steel looks amazing. Can't wait for mine to arrive in the mail. I am a bit worried though about these statues leaning over time though.

I don't have a solution but I admire the problem.

I got mine today and am quite happy with it. I was hoping that the base would be separate like some of the others. I was going to bring the base to get signed by Ken Rocafort at a convention later this month. Guess I have to bring the whole statue now. Only flaw I could find is a bit of a discoloration right where the rod joins the base at the hole. Almost has a lighter halo around the hole.

Like supahman, I went to my LCS today to pick this and a few other items up. Every piece was being claimed as damaged due to paint chips, blemishes and minor breakage - particularly in the hair. Hopefully they will get their replacements soon.

I wouldn't keep it. That's a pretty blatant defect.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking as well. Dang it. Alright back he goes, better luck with the next one. I hate DC's paint application... Great sculpts, but the paints always.... arrg.

defiantly send that back, that's really messed up....

I ordered Frank Miller's Man of Steel because DC had it for 40% off but they sent me Kenneth Rocaforts instead for the same 40% off, A DC screwup that finally benefits me... I didn't think I would like these 8" statues but there pretty awesome once you get them..
