Is there any new codes for SSC yet?
I know they won't work on this figure but I'm wanting to grab a couple.

BvS superman is superior in many way.
Just compare those two, BvS ver proportion is much better, cape much nicer. Suit texture also simply much better
You forgot that the color is better as the red is not bright red but maroon and the suit itself is now has a metallic finish to it.
On that angle I agree but on this angle below, I can see Cavill.
I think this is because his eyes don't look squinty here but instead rather large, squinty eyes reduces the likeness on the sculpt.
Nevertheless, the MOS proto sculpt was much better than both the MOS final product sculpt and this BVS one.
The lips on the MOS sculpt are inaccurate to.

Yeah, the red hue of the cape on the MoS figure was a little too bright I thought.
I may be the lone dissenter on this, so be it if I am, but I actually prefer both the final MoS sculpt and the BvS proto sculpt over the proto MoS sculpt. At least based on that particular picture of it and comparing it to the pictures that I've seen thus far of the proto BvS sculpt and the sculpt on my MoS figure in person.
That's just one person's (my) opinion though.

Nope, not yet, probably within the next week or so.

Wow, those pictures really show the difference. I'm very happy with my MoS Superman but will definitely get this one too.

I've bought many figures from the US and far east and I've generally paid much less in customs, VAT etc on stuff from the far east than from the USA. It also tends to arrive here far more quickly. I don't know why but that's been my experience. I rarely buy from the US these days.
The usual eBay rules apply e.g. buy from an established dealer. Good luck. You could be facing absurdly expensive charges on something like that.

Don't sellers in Asia tend to underreport the value of an item? Or mark their goods as "low value?" Which is good for the buyer and seller, not so good for the government.

The Man of Steel head sculpt suddenly looks terrible now? Gtfo.
I know, right?
Just roughly a week before this BvS Supes went up for PO, the MoS sculpt was the greatest thing since sliced bread.

For many people yes, but I only liked the proto sculpt. That being said, I don't hate the final product sculpt, but it just doesn't blow me away like the proto sculpt did.

The prototype was nice as well. Many would agree that the MOS sculpt is one of Hot Toys best yet. We would be hard-pressed to find a handful of negative posts in the MOS thread, and mostly having to do with the larger body used (in proportion to the regular HT bodies.)
I do like this BvS sculpt as well, as it does show some determination in the expression. Would be great if it fits the MOS body for some interesting options.

Probably a stupid question but are there substantial differences between the MOS suit and this? Also, it is worth getting the MOS figure or just skip it for this?
It's up to you, which one you prefer. The new one looks awesome.
It's totally different from the previous suit though.
My Brother did a comparison of the two suits:
I really like the HS. He looks so... serious. I think this will be one of the best HS for 2016.

Substantial differences? No, not in my opinion.
For me, even though I have the MoS figure, I PO'd BvS Supes as well because I'm a staunch Supes fan. However, for the casual fan, if you already have MoS Supes then I think that would be plenty fine if you just want one representation of Supes. If you don't already have MoS Supes, then I would go for this one because I think HT made some improvements that look really good. The suit seems a little more glossy, the cape sits better on his shoulders and the color is a slightly darker hue as it should be.

This. Agree. ^^

The figures are different enough for me to want the new one too. Also have a feeling that this one is going to be less enormous.
