I never knew that, but the Art on the front is normal, correct?

it appears, like the transparent Dr. Strange, the so called "variant" is being released first en masse.

PRETTY sure the non-metal version is the variant. But I can't say that in all confidence.

Good question. I think think the non metal would be the variant.

Figure is SO cool. I love my Secret Wars one a lot too. Maybe I should paint him Metal, or at least half metal...GOOD IDEA TIBERIUS!

Yeah I felt the same way. I think the Metal Skinned version is vastly superior to the original.

Random observation:
Would'nt Absorbing Man's default condition be the qualities of cotton pants? Discuss. On topic: I like the non metal variant, will get both though as I've already pillaged my SW version. |

Just a metal skinned version for myself. I don't see the point in a version of himself not using his power... Besides MOC collector purposes. |

Or, you can be a lazy fat shit like me and not paint anything but also enjoy the paint scheme on the pants of the new figure.

I guess painting them yourself depends on motivation, skill, and the rarity of the figure. I would personally suggest painting an older, easier to find version of the Absorbing Man and keeping the new one MOC.

That works too. I'm more inclined to paint just because I love craft projects

I like the new pants on the metal skinned one. You could paint the SW to look like that but it would be pretty damn hard to replicate.

It's just all around easier for me to buy the figure then paint one myself.

Not wanting to highjack the thread, but it is kind of on topic to the paint discussion. I did this in 30 minutes, simple undercoat of black and then dry brush silver.
