Re: Hot Toys - MMS152 - Superman: 1/6th scale Superman Collectible Figure
Keaton and Reeve will forever be superhero legends. I don't care what anyone says about those films, they set the standard which all superhero films will be measured against until the end of time in my opinion.

I loved 89 Batman when I was 12. But I can't watch it all the way through these days. Full of cheese and almost a bit too cartoony.

Re: Hot Toys - MMS152 - Superman: 1/6th scale Superman Collectible Figure
Just received mine. Happy with the purchase especially at the price I paid for it.
EDIT: I'd just noticed that the boots are quite greasy. Is there a fix to this that won't damage them in the long run? Thx.

Live as one of them, Kal-El, to discover where your strength and your power are needed. Always hold in your heart the pride of your special heritage. They can be a great people, Kal-El, they wish to be. They only lack the light to show the way. For this reason above all, their capacity for good, I have sent them you... my only son.
Great pics. I am astounded each and every time i walk past my Detolf and glance at my Reeve Superman figures. It's every bit the stern but benevolent gaze of Reeve as Superman.

Re: Hot Toys - MMS152 - Superman: 1/6th scale Superman Collectible Figure
Well, mine are greasy and sticky. I had to put the figure back into its box because I don't want dust to get stuck on the boots. Would damp cloth damage them? I'm not quite sure what material Hot Toys used for the boots and I certainly don't want to take any risk. Any advice is appreciated.

It may be mould release.
I trust the boots are not "tacky" themselves(Like if you touch them, the boots aren't melting? You don't have slimy red fingers after touching them?).
If not, it's maybe just mould release from the manufacturing.
What i would do is take a can of brake cleaner(NOT brake fluid...), and spray onto a cloth, then rub down the boots to get rid of the greasy residue.
Brake cleaner is a mild solvent and comes in aerosol form. I use it for degreasing, and to remove adhesive.
It evaporates at room temperature in less than twenty seconds leaving no residue, but to get rid of any grease, you'd have to rub the boots down with a cloth.

Try some hand soap (the kind that comes in the little pump bottles). If it's mold release, that'll get rid of it.
If it's the boots themselves dissolving, you're screwed. I have to say though, were the boots dissolving, others surely would have experienced this by now.

Thank you guys.
Based on Username's description, I reckon it is mould release.
Will try both options, one for each boot.
Again, thanks!

SS has the EX version in stock for those looking at the original good price. Save yourself at least $100 if you've been searching eBay.

Well this sucks. I emailed SSC to find out if they anticipated any more EX figures to which they told me no. So I went ahead and purchased mine from BBTS two days ago. Now this.... 
Oh well. I'll take what I can get.
