SSC Superman 1/6th Scale figure

[Cocoboloboy]

I got mine and one of the heat vision parts are broken off. I sent pic through the form the other day but have not heard anything yet. About how long does it take?

Bummer! It usually takes no more than a few working days before you hear back.

Got pics?

Mine was in the bottom of the box too. But not broken, just unglued. Might be the same for you.

I just heated the head to make it soft, reinserted and glued it back.

Sorry.....

Anyway to buff this guy up?

 

[LIBBY1957DOG]

having just got him id say the upper body is fine ,not perfect ,the legs just about passable ,but its the mid section that needs work ,im going to try to thicken the waist and hips when a get sometime later on ,should help to balance out the body proportions and maybe fill out those trunks ,

Don't let all the naysayers turn you if you're on the fence with this figure. In hand it's awesome and looks so great next to Batman. So glad I trekked through a snowstorm today to pick him up!

I think he turned out great...I did do some mods...which took all of 30 minutes. Mod one...trimmed up some of my paint sponges and filled in the neck cavity, heated up all three heads and brought the jaw line in and then shocked the heads in a ice bath to hold the new form. Lastly I fixed the trunks. I just tooked them off...(gave Supes a beer and they slid right off...he's a cheap date) then I rolled down the top along the edge of the trunks...and you can either stitch, glue, or fabric tack about 1/8" inch around the top. Completely changes the look of the figure. Very glad I didn't cancel my order.....came close.

Enjoy the pics - Jase

Nice shots there Jace and Hockey. He is a very fun figure to pose.

I bulked him a little bit with some Apoxie Sculpt to give some gains! Just added the basic areas as in the last pic. Then sanded them smooth. I also raised the loops on his britches. That took about the whole Superbowl to do. I think these mods are something most of us can do here.

But I really like the way looks now. Buff n tuff. Bats is still bigger, but Supes now looks great next to him. Love the sculpts and the wide manly jaw. I do like him over Reeve. As I said earlier, he looks more heroic. Plus I never like the sparkly spandex HT used and hate hate hate his cape. It never hangs well. Sideshow's has a superior body suit. It doesn't snag easy or look sparkly. The regular cape looks and hangs great. The snaps on the cape could have been move forward a bit to give it more of the Roman style hang, but it look great. Boots are super nice looking. Nice assortment of hands but a few more would not hurt.

But yea, now this is Superman to me. He looks fantastic on the shelf with the other SS DC figures. Can't wait for a Kingdom Come version down the line.

How did you mod the undies? The figure looks fantastic EF.

He has a John Byrne vibe in this pic. I dig it.

I just got him and he's awesome, but mine came with a stain on his shorts. It looks as if he didn't fully shake off after using the restroom. Any advice how to get rid of small stains on 1/6 clothing and not ruin the material or dye?

 

[karamazov80]

Damn, EF. That Superman looks excellent! I haven't been remotely tempted by that figure until I saw your post.

 

[egel]

And now the figure is ruined for me, can't unsee Evilface's custom. And since I don't have the skills to improve the stock figure, it is time to cancel. I imagine the dissapointment of opening Supes will be much bigger than the loss of the deposit.

 

[joda76]

Great pics and info Evil, I will be getting this in March.

 

[karamazov80]

Did anyone at SSC explain why they gave Batman a larger body than Supes? That doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

 

[Karnis]

Nice work Evilface. I'm assuming you bulked up the neck as well? Because it looks really well matched to the jaw line. Based on your pics I'm going to bulk up the neck on mine some more. Outstanding!

 

[ASTRO13ZOMBIE]

wow!
that looks great, Evilface!
Might have to pick him up now....

Love this picture.
