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

I absolutely love this piece. Pretty disappointed in them placing the shield a bit too low on the chest.

Though this piece looks absolutely incredible.

I can't get over the fact that they released a 2K piece with the "S" way too low. It's unacceptable to me for the price of this piece. Otherwise the piece looks amazing.

Has anyone attempted to move it? I wonder how well they glued it on and if it would damage the suit coming off.

I wondered that same thing. It's a clear cut mistake that should have been picked up on with QC. If you go back and look at protoype pieces the "S" was much higher. I just can't understand with the quality stuff that Prime 1 puts out how this happens. That was the difference for me in not buying the piece. I will be waiting to see what Prime 1 comes out with in 1/3 scale for Cavill Superman.

I'll start off by saying this statue is gorgeous and amazing! P1 did an insane job!

Having said that, for $2k and translucent resin I'd expect the likeness and screen accuracy to surpass the 1/6 Hot Toys version.

Unfortunately it does not.

My nitpicks.

1) Crest too low.
2) Wrist bangles gold instead of blue
3) Thin neck.

Those were enough for me to feel that whatever version of him is made next will correct these issues and justify my purchase.

For me personally, a $2,000 statue must be absolutely perfect to my personal preferences.

But again, just my take. It truly is a beautiful piece of art and I congratulate anyone who's purchased it!

Have you seen him in person or is that based off of pics?

Five YouTube reviews.

And I have no doubt it's incredible in person. But for me the things I mentioned are making it a 9.5.

For me to spend this amount on a statue it has to be a 10!

Question:

Be you feel seeing it in person would change my mind regarding my nitpicks?
