Re: Christopher Reeve Superman the Movie Premium Format Figure -part 2

Ya know I think I get SSC plan.... Put out the preview pics... Good or Bad... Let the praise/complaints come... But after a while after the initial shock people will get use to looking at the product and what originally bothered them will not be as bad.

Still not going to order but the pose is starting to not bother me as much. Dare I say it's growing on me. I don't think I will ever like the Dam though.

Certain angles it looks promising.

I like the concept, but from pictures it looks out of proportion and other factors people have mentioned.

It's a quirky style, collectors might start to like?

I took a glimpse at the thread that made him that.

All Hail him indeed.

What thread is that?

Just wondering can we change the title back to normal and get rid of the part 2? It's confusing to the newbies and we want to forget about that big preorder mess which some people had. It's a new year so time to start fresh!
But anyone Who is on the WL for Harley will convert. There's plenty I'm sure of with a big ES like that. She is a keeper for me as well after changing my mind 3 times. I'm not canceling after the 3rd time. She is a keeper!

I don think anyone is hammering on him except one dude.

I find him cool, tbh.

Who is hammering CBG

Re: Christopher Reeve Superman the Movie Premium Format Figure -part 2

I am thinking that the black base is to make the statue appear to be floating . Not grounded. To assist in making the illusion that Superman is flying.

And yes... we ordered the exclusive.

Who is hammering CBG

Someone said CBG should have his own reality show and BurningRage said

They already have a show called the biggest loser.

Obviously BurningRage does not know who he is F'ing with.

That's what I mean about the negative knee-jerk reactions of some people about this piece. I personally don't think it's as bad as the naysayers would have you believe. The more I see it the happier I am that I preordered it. I think everyone (whether they are a Christopher Reeve fan or not) has an image of the ideal CR Superman PF in their head. For a lot of people--I'm guessing 99%--the pose chosen and dam base were not what they had in mind and I'm one of them. However, it's likely going to be the only CR PF we see and, though it's not what I expected, I need it in my collection. Overall it is an impressive PF and I think it's going to blow people away in person.

Yeah it's too bad that the paint Apps and/or the photos used/taken were not better because this

does not look as good as the one on the left or really that much like Chris on the right.

I gotta think that it's the lighting used. It makes the PO Superman look gaunt. CR also had a pretty think neck and this photo as well as some others just give him a look like he is too thin.

But I really do believe it will look better in person.

I still wish they went with a slightly less stern expression (does not have to be smiling) Hard to find straight on shots of CR being as serious as the sculpt has been made. Still the resemblance is there. But man that Pose
