LOL, yes the violin music would have made it more effective.

I've thought about looking in to cost for ripping the fabric and customizing him to a fully sculpted piece.

A couple guys did it on the freaks forum. One turned out pretty good, the other was kind of a train wreck. The one that turned out good the customizer said he had to sand and fill a whole lot on the statue. Was not straightforward to do and get it right at all.

I think there's bound to be a full sculpt version around the corner.

Ah well may be more trouble than its worth. I don't mind waiting for a new fully sculpted version. Maybe there's a comic 1/4 from Prime 1 in the pipeline.

There you go. That's what I'm doing too. I'm waiting on a fully sculpted 1/4 scale Superman.

...and I just missed out on a nice 1/4 scale custom Superman. Oh well.

Wait ...did you take 3 years to decide to get it converted? Or the conversion took 3 years?

i did it myself so it took 3 years, but in my defense I did a complete costume change and worked on a few other projects along the way

for anyone who really wants to do the conversion, even for the same costume its so much work - fill pin holes, make some things smaller, some things bigger, fill this, correct that. the more things you fix the more things you have to change because now that doesn't look right - so glad its over lol
