The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Yeah the cape looks fine on yours, bummer about the paint though.

Your cape looks better than the others posted so far.

The cape is fine and I can live with the sloppy paint around the belt, but I really don't like it on the logo. I don't know what the painter was doing on the top of mine.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

The more I look at it from afar the better I like it. It only makes me cringe when I get close and see the super sloppy paint job on the logo and belt.

That being said, the faces look great.

I just got my Superman in and like the others the paint application is nowhere as good as it was on previous Tweeterhead statues I own and I own a lot of them...

The normal portrait has a grey dot on his chin, probably a paint chip... The boots were poorly painted along with his belt and red shorts...

Also the cape on his right side does look like it's coming out of his skin, this was an obvious mold issue, the corner of the cape stops short of the blue uniform...

The paint applications on Joker, Harley, Supergirl and the dogs was excellent so I'm really disappointed the factory dropped the ball on Superman.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

The paint job is very poor, and the cape issue is quite disturbing.
I will have to see one in person before buying.

Not good seeing all these issues. I emailed Chad and Debbie about my Superman statue on the 26th but have not heard back yet.

Hopefully they have enough replacement or get a new batch painted.

I think you're right, it doesn't matter if the cape can sit closer in the keyhole, there's not enough resin to extend far enough to create the appearance of being connected to the shirt.
