I like XM and Sideshow but either one here’s hoping the costume is/will be close enough to classic. You never know from either one nowadays.

Too true. I don't need it to be 100% classic but I certainly want it to be classic inspired. I don't mind a few mild liberties taken but will not buy anything New 52 related.

Not yet. Besides Doomsday, all we've seen has been silhouettes of the other 1/4 DC pieces they've announced.

Well I got my Flash last week, finally had a chance to crack him open. Got 463/600. Much darker than I was expecting, doesn’t look bad, I was just a little surprised.

My key didn’t sit as flush as I’d like, but I think I can get it more flush. Didn’t want to get it stuck since I am not putting it on display for awhile and really was just doing a QC check.

You definitely need to give it a real hard push down to try get it more flush... Muscle time

Tight is followed by broken very often.

Just got him. Thoughts? Don't want to force it and have it stuck. Seems stable, no wobble. Kind of think I'm overreacting after reading through a lot of this thread. Everything else is great.

looks fine, nearly all of them are like that. you're looking at 1/8"-1/4" in the front that could be slightly more flush, but I doubt you'll get a better replacement. And if you do it may have other flaws like in the paint. I'd keep it as is and enjoy!

Thanks! I agree with your points and it's what I was thinking as well. Thanks again.
