EXACTLY! I also use a chainsaw sharpening Dremel bit and carve channels in the top front and bottom front of the ab section to expand the crunch. That bit is about the perfect width. HIGHLY recommend that. Also you can use Acetone to chemically sand any rough areas. Comes out smooth afterwards. I have a few on which the cuts look factory.

But how do you get so close to this "classic" look or a bunch of their other output and just not nail the last details? Do the right belt and trunks. This is literally the best time to be a toy collector. I don't need to settle for this because it's close enough or because it's the best McFarlane has done after like 20 other versions, especially for Superman.

Just do it. And when you do, don't make it some gold exclusive I can only pick up at a Wawa in New Jersey.

I'm not as picky about some of those details as others. I don't need a "classic" Supes to look 100% like he did during a certain time frame. Would I have preferred the round buckle? Yes. But it's not a deal breaker for me.
