Indeed, Freaks 4 Lyfe son!
Really liking how it looks. My only complaints are that his red shorts look really awkward since you can see where they just sit over the blue tights. I guess this is inevitable if they do not sculpt the outfit and I prefer the mixed media so this is a sacrifice I am more than willing to take.
Another issue is the way his upperbody looks. It's very strange where it goes from muscule to a more flat area around the stomach. It's like he has the ribs of a skeleton and then a normal human body under it, if that makes sense. I just don't like how they poke out in such a pronounced way. I'm hoping the production one looks smoother.
And finally my biggest complaint is the base, which I feel could be a lot more elaborate. The one we have for Batman is really detailed, huge, and elaborate and going by the concept art for Wonder Woman it is also going to be quite elaborate so I feel that Superman's base needs to be enlarged somehow, maybe with the icicles sitting ontop of an area of the fortress or something. Just kind of strange how they went for a base that takes the least space possible on something that's going to be very tall anyway. I tend to like my statues emphasizing being horizontal rather than vertical so pronounced bases are always a plus.

Cape looks awesome. I wish the Batman one looked this good. I am still not convinced on how they have it sitting on Batman's shoulders. I think it looks really awkward.

It really shows how they made an already impressive statue look significantly better. I am really loving that cape it just looks fantastic.

Wasn't Storm made at that same factory? She turned out pretty damn amazing.

Wow. This piece is really something to be excited about.
And with DCs intention of changing the look up Superman, it's a tribute to the classic style of hero.
