I selected mixed media. However I think it really does depend on the character being sculpted. Some could work as a fully sculpted PF (Batman, Superman, Wolverine) and others could work as a mixed media PF (Gambit, Hellboy, Indiana Jones)...

Mixed Media for me. I love Doom, Cap, Thor, Wolverine, even Sabretooth... Ms. Marvel, Black Cat, ... Soon Vampirella. All the Street Fighter PF's of Jerry. I sold all my comiquette's (only kept the Punisher till the new PF will be revealed).

I understand what you guys are saying, but when I look at some of the statues with fabric (Spiderman Pf, Green Goblin, Colossus, Wolverine Pf, Batman Pf, etc.), I just think how much better they could look fully sculpted. I do think the Joker and Skaar look good though (if they look like the proto pics).

Minimal material for me, those onesie's look silly, plus I am more concerned with the longevity of the fabric.

I agree with the sentiment that it is a character specific decision. Having said that I think that the majority will agree that no spandex tights on superheroes is a good thing.

Little bits of mixed media is fine with me. But I'd rather the majority of the costume, the suit/cape, etc be fully sculpted. The boots, belts , little accessories to the costume as mixed media is ok.

So, I'd prefer fully sculpted.

It took me a while to warm up to PFs. However, once I allowed myself to open up to the idea of mixed media, I really grew to love it. While fully sculpted still has the edge, that gap gets more narrow all the time.
