I like this figure! Kudos to SS. I want a Supes for my collection and was looking at the HT one. Now, I'm trying to decide.

Love everything but....
Yeah I def like this figure, but that crotch area does look a little weird. I can't wait for SSC and hot toys to start making figures for Man of Steel, so this won't be an issue anymore. I think Zack Snyder was wise to make his superman an under wear goes inside the pants kind of superhero.

I started really liking these figures, but the more I look at them the more issues I find...
I think I might just go with doing customized figures for the comics versions.
Will wait and see how these turn out in production.

Truth.
He does look a bit old doesn't he?
Id prefer something a bit younger looking I think.
Like this.

I imagine SSC will eventually do a New 52 Superman, which should have a younger, non-facial hair head sculpt. If the difference in hair isn't a big deal to people, I can see that being a popular head sculpt since they decided to make Modern Superman so rugged and mature.
Just a thing to remember guys, they worked hard to get 5 figures done for SDCC. They aren't final yet, so don't fret about the little things like how the undies fit 
Sideshow is doing an incredible amount of work on these. They went through a good 3 different bodies for Bats/Supes/etc before they found ones that worked. They aren't going to drop the ball here. They want this line to be as awesome as we do

Like Spiderman or Batman, Superman is going to be thought of differently by different generations. I don't think there will ever be complete agreement on the quintessential Superman. I've revisited this threat a lot the last few days and I'm thoroughly convinced I'll try to pick this up if I think i can afford it. There's just so much coming out I don't know I can fit this in.

As far as I'm concerned this is the perfect Superman sculpt and I will definitely purchase this figure.
If SSC can make the "S" a little bigger and get rid of the black border, I would be even happier.

Riiiight.. because Sideshow is so well known for the consistent production tailoring excellence.
I hope we don't have to wait 5 months to see the changes. An unpainted pic would do me fine.

As Buttmunch said - these are probably the earliest prototypes that Sideshow has ever let us see. They are fresh off the designers desk, so things like the shorts being a tad uneven and the "S" shield are all going to change.
