Looks pretty cool but, a Rebirth line? Eh. Even though I wouldn't need the whole line or anything it would be cooler if they did a 1/10th 90's or 2000's style JLA. Not that Super Powers line either.

Was hoping for a 1/10th Superman to replace the terrible New 52 one but this is worse than that one. Easy pass for me. May have to suck it up and buy the 1/10th scale Iron Studios Superman.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I really don't like this one, especially for the price.

The thing what sucks is Koto is always late. This is his new costume. I want a statue of his newer suit.

It's an improvement, but DC still seems like they're struggling to find a design that compensates for the color balance lost from the removal of his red shorts. I'm normally not a fan of extraneous costume piping a la the Nu52, but the MoS costume best solved the issue with the piping along the sides of the suit instead of a belt, which looks silly if they aren't holding up anything, IMO.

Why would people pay more for 1/10 scale statues instead of DC's Man of Steel line?

DCC created a niche product with their choice of metallic paint even for artists using the classic costume. I have the Darwyn Cooke one. Love the design, but I would repaint it matte if I had the talent/patience. It's definitely an achievement that DCC made designs by the likes of Moebius and Frank Quitely (both of which I'm a huge fan of) somehow look even more awkward and unconventional with their paint scheme choice.

Okay, fine, but that Iron Studios Superman looks derpy.

You don't see me buying that thing.

To each their own, but owning the comic Harley, I don't feel the nearly double value in an IS 1:10 compared to a Koto one other than weight. Both have incredibly clean paint apps, but I'm surprisingly more concerned about long-term warping with Harley's hammer or her extreme pose than I am with Koto's soft PVC.

That said, I don't think one can go wrong with Iron Studios if they are a Marvel collector. I'm just lukewarm to the DC comic and movie pieces.
