New Sideshow Superman Up for Pre-order
 

Looks awesome... wonder how easily it'd be to add a 3rd party Chris Reeve head. Neck looks thick.

Moved over to the news forum. Thanks for the heads up.

Looks much better than their last attempt. :cool:

The body and suit look fantastic...but that headsculpt needs some work. There's just something weird about it, it looks almost like a ventriloquist doll.

Really? Looks just like 1930's comics Superman to me.

I like it, especially with that faint hint of a smile. I see a little bit of resemblance with David Marquez’s take on Superman (from the current Batman/Superman comic).

Yeah, I dunno. There's just a little bit of an "uncanny valley" thing happening for me. And a subtle gauntness of the cheeks that seems out of place. I do appreciate the youthful look and the hopeful expression. Glad you guys dig it, though!

I agree, it's a super weird looking sculpt to me. Maybe better in person but in these pics he doesn't come across human, like robot superman.

Wow I’m really tempted to get this guy. He’s one nice looking Superman. I love the yellow S on the cape you don’t see that too often on Superman figures.

Super Fix
 

I think these proportions might work a bit better.
What do you all think?

Something kind of "plain" about it. Now a Kingdom Come or Fleischer Superman, now that would be interesting.

That's what is so awesome about it. It's simple and classic. It's not re-inventing the wheel. Just a classic Golden Age Superman. I'm actually tempted to order it.

I'm not much of a fan of a realistic Superman head sculpt unless it's based on a particular version from live action or Alex Ross's Superman. I see a lifelike face on a comic style Superman figure and I can't help but think "Who is this guy?".

AMEN. I wish they'd consult the fans about these things. I would pay top dollar for a good classic Superman. This guy looks like a creepy cosplayer.

That head sculpt looks awful, no? It's like a caricature biased slightly towards realistic, but only by one tick on the spectrum...

I don't dislike the headsculpt, but it does make Superman look like the lovechild of Jason Isaacs and Tyler Hoechlin. The head and neck do look a bit oversized as well

there is definitely something, "welcome to scientology" about that head scuplt.
