So disappointing. I suppose I can wait to see what people actually receive, but this has been a hard sell from the beginning for me due to the head sculpt. The best I can say about this is that at least it's an overall improvement from Sideshow's first Reeve PF--though that's really not saying much.

I'd like Sideshow to post an unboxing video.

What is slightly strange..
The original portrait teased looked too wide.
Sideshow appeared to update to the portrait, resulting in a look on his face like he had lost something. His face looked thinner.
The production pic's almost imply another revision.

His chin could use more dimple.

I could see this on one of those 25% off deal of the day with the 6000 es.

Definitely. With that big of an ES, I won't be surprised to see this discounted later.

Hmm ...25% off with free shipping might get me to bite.

Will they ever reach 6000 ?
They will make one batch. Once that sells out they can proceed to another batch providing there are enough waiting on the waitlist.

Not surprised if this gets 30% off. Look at Darkseid Ex. is getting 30%.

Hi....

I was disappointed with the sculpt and wish it was better but I think it is the best representation on Superman the Movie done to date.

This piece has a special place in my heart because it was the first movie I watched with my dad when I was little and it would look great on top of my shelf.

I don't know if we will have better CR Superman statues coming out in the near future but this, to me, is a 8 out of a 10 and that is not bad. I think in person it will look better....

Cheers

Thanks for this...but now the SSC piece even looks worse than my initial lukewarm reaction.
