I really like the concept but I'm not a fan of the portrait. I was a bit worried when I saw the title because I just purchased the latest Superman PF not that long ago.

Edit: I would be more interested if the hat is removeable or there is a switch out head (without the hat) with a more determined expression.

I like it, but what's up with the suit? Is he like 0.0% body fat, and he's vacuum sealed into it? He looks like Dr Manhattan with a S.

Hot damn - it's like a little dio! Finally, SS Looks really good.

Think they will make a Supergirl one too?

I might be in the minority for liking the smirk. Maybe he is just happy to be shedding his clothes to go beat some a$$?

I mean, I've never really seen much fat on any Superman statue, so I'm a bit confused by why this statue is throwing you off.

I think the suit fits fine. Now a days, bigger built dudes are going with a more tailored, slimmer sit suit. A solid modern take on a classic Supes move.

I'd be way more excited if it were fully sculpted. Not something I would add to my collection anyway. I will say that even though it's not fully sculpted it looks awesome.

Personally, I don't have any problems with the smirk. The concept is great but I'm not too sure about all that fabric.
Love the sculpt but the base is lacking!
Guessing the excluisve will be a COH.

figured this would be more of a niche statue for collectors with multiple statues of superman but seems i was wrong, which is good! nice looking execution of the concept, i really like the splash effect on the base and use of mixed media. hopefully this means they will do a mixed media suit for two face when the time comes

Pretty neat but for me, fabric = fail. I hope those toes have a strong peg.
