cheers Barry lmk how you go on if you decide to go down the scanner route ,at any size ,and ouch on the $600 for the modern life stuff ,but i look forward to seeing them painted up
You know what i think happened?
They sculpted the Cavill head, and it was too small. They had it on a body that was too bloated for the proto and, before developing the body, they made the head bigger. But then they developed the body based on a head that was closer to 1/5 than 1/6.
I have seen this happen with old-school hand made model kit master patterns. One of the first parts made is slightly out of scale and they roll with it till eventually the entire thing is too bog, or too small.
I reckon it will just be this one figure that's slightly out.
I actually hope ALL figures of the MoS line will be this much out of scale, including the new batman. Otherwise this figure won't look good with ANYTHING on the shelf :/
my son & i just messing around earlier lol
Someone posted a pic with MoS head on a DX12 a few pages back. It looks ridiculous, but you get this vibe that Kryptonians are generally larger/taller than h.sapiens.
Reckon Affleck's Batman will be made in scale with the MoS line?
Edit: has anyone tried measuring Kal El? I suspect HT is now trying to make 1/6 figures based on the actual measurements of the character. Previously their figures have been of the same height (based on strictly 1/6 of 180 cm tall or 30 cm), right?
SHOWDOWN!!!
Great pics!
It would appear that they have made Superman TRUE 1/6, and as you have pointed out, almost all other figures have merely been 12" figures, regardless of their height.
It makes a lot of sense.
But you seem to have said it first.
I for one would welcome all future figures being actual 1/6. But it would make displaying them with older figures a bit problematic.
And it was me that posted the pic of the Cavill head on the DX12.
