I like this PF. The head sculpt isn't the best but I like it. The base is cool and something different for a change. Shame shipping to Australia will cost a fortune.

Re: Christopher Reeve Superman the Movie Premium Format Figure -part 2
I'm wanting it the more I look at it. I'm a huge fan of Reeve as Superman and he was a huge part of childhood, as many have said; he made us believe a man could fly. For the fans out there passing on this, are there other embodiments of Reeve out there in statue form that are better than this?
I know that is not the best reason to buy but this might be the best representation of Reeve as Superman we get in 1/4 in mixed media.

It has been said in a few spots m8 or at least hinted at.
Dave's a big boy. He has heard and seen it all before.
Spidey, Wasn't it just one guy who said that people who liked this were not "true fans?" I only say that because your comment makes it seem that all of us who don't like it are bashing on those that do.
In all honesty with the exception of a few the comments about this piece have been pretty tame. This is nothing like "Wormgate"
Just setting the record straight for those that are just starting to visit this thread.
Put me in the "Think the head sculpt is good, HATE THE POSE, don't like the dam" category. Even if he did strike that pose in the movie or movie stills I would still not care for it. It looks awkward to me and unnatural. Hell even the Chin has said it looks off.... And he loves the thing. But it is 1/4 scale Christopher Reeve and the head sculpt is pretty dead on. So I can see why many are happy.
I think he actually looks pretty nice and natural from this angle. But all others just don't look right to me.
Still I look forward to seeing more of him at SDCC and when people get him In Hand. Superman the Movie is one of my all time fav comic book films so it will be fun to see this piece in peoples collections... Hope it meets the expectations of those that ordered it.

Re: Christopher Reeve Superman the Movie Premium Format Figure -part 2
LOL, that is a sweet guitar playing pose. I am not too bothered by the pose, but the head sculpt looks weird and a bit creepy to me, as is the one on the Cinemaquette. Not sure what it is exactly. But that's a deal breaker. The base is also pretty odd IMO. Sticking with the comic styled PF.

Hmm, very sneaky of SS to hide that godawful black rod bottem in every promo except the full pic with the Ex. Hopefully that shot is also included in the Reg add or people get a nasty surprise.

Good luck getting a ticket, bro...damn near impossible. But, if you've already booked the flights, at least San Diego is a damn fine place to visit...love that City.

I tired to get tix last year, logged on at exactly the release time, and didn't even get into the waiting room. SDCC need s a better ticketing system.
I went in 2010, and just went to the site one day and there were tons of single day tix...I had no problem at all. I've tried to get tix every year since, and haven't even come close.
