I have this but recently just purchased another Body/Suit as the material had Faded really Badly...my fault probably from the Sunlight, although I didn't have it near Sunlight...but I also feel it's partly the material they used...its still my Childhood Superman so to this day he's still today one of my Favorite Pieces...the Original HT Version being my Number 1
Got mine last week and loving it... One thing about the regular stand though is it can easily damage the material around the top of the legs. The plastic ends of the crutch hook can catch on the material. I like the rock base.. but it's sooo big.
That darker blue makes me want to see them do Superman Returns. Seeing them side by side like that, tall vs slumped, makes me want them to release a suit and alternate head(with -hopefully removable- glasses and different hair) as a $50-75 accessory package. It reminds me of the bit right after he takes Lois flying, where he takes off his glasses and straightens up, and suddenly it's not Clark anymore; it's Superman in a three-piece suit! Brilliant! I want to recreate THAT with a HT Superman.
I kind of like the darker color suit better, but both are absolutely amazing, Supes is my favorite super hero, I grew up watching Christopher Reeves Superman movies
I saw you mention in other replies that you probably will only pick up the Mark VII but not the Mark 42. Either way i'm really glad you might pick them up. I will look forward to your reviews
I love your videos watch them everyday. Im going to grab the Evil Superman because I missed out on the 1st one. I was not collecting Hottoys when the original came out. Also just wanted to know are you a professional toy reviewer for companies
I think the original plan for Superman 3 was the kryptonite was to create Bizzaro, and the computer was to be Braniac, but after numerous re-writes, we got the very dummed down version, lol.
The only thing I didn't like about Reeve's costume was that the cape was a bit short, it should've at least reach to the middle of the boots. And how come they didn't make a new head piece for this toy, he had a couple more curl bangs hanging down and had a couple brown streaks on the sides.
Just wondering, did you enjoy the modern Ironman movies, and more specifically Ironman 3? It seems like you won't pick any of their Hot Toys figures - so is it because you didn't enjoy the movies? Or was is more of you not being found of the suits being released? Just asking because I love your comprehensive reviews and was hoping you would do more Hot Toy reviews in general (since they are pricier so I want your opinion first really).
Optibotimus I think your Reviews are Fantastic...really love the way you get in to Detail and how you show what all these Collectibles are about...I live in Auckland NZ and for me, your Reviews have helped me Decide on what and what not to Purchase. I would like to Share my thoughts about this Figure...and yes I have it!! Sideshow though needs to do a Clark Kent now...we have 2 Superman Gem's but please if your watching and reading this Sideshow please give us a Clark Kent...Please. I will now share what I think of this Figure...I love it!! Yes I have listened to all your little Nitpicks but in the end you still got it!! I agree with you a Piece of Kryptonite would have been Brilliant and made sense. The Base should have been a Piece from the Junkyard Fight...but the Face I actually think is what it should be. I guess for me I was expecting too much change and like you I was going to get this no matter what. I have seen many Custom Versions of this Figure and they are Awesome...I was thinking of doing that to mine...and still thinking about it. I love both Versions and they couldn't have done a better Job of making Christopher Reeve come to Life...RIP Christopher.. Thanks so much Optibotimus and keep up the fine work...your Reviews are Superb!!
Optibotimus what can u say the hot toys man of steel superman.. is it bad or good im planning of getting it.. and for me man of steel is the best than iron man 3 im looking forward to ur hot toys man of steel superman line i wish u review them i love ur reviews and im 15 years old i dont have any hot toys and for me im ur biggest fan tnx you for ur entairtainment...
Evil Superman looks not only like Christopher Reeves Superman in the 3rd film but also what Christopher Reeves Superman would look like if Zac Snyder directed the original 1978 film!!!! 🤣
Hot TOys sucks with all those variations. They make the same figure with a diferent paint. Like they do with all Marks, like they did with red snapper and peacemaker (95% the same). This superman should come with a angry face, red eyes and other things. It would be nice! Really nice review!!!!
I love emo superman . I agree with you , his head doesn't work for me . He needs more grey in his hair and more of a five o'clock shadow .. that would have made this way better of a figure
I did not really think he was "evil" - just like I would have acted if I were having a bad day. Was more of a troublemaker / depressed superman. Course I still don't understand how fake kryptonite would make a clone of him- but thats 80s movies for ya. Great likeness of Christopher Reeve, he is still missed.
Wow cannot believe how many times this base has been recycled for so many figures. Hot Toys stop being cheap and make the bases to match the figures/movies/shows.
That stand should have been used on the original, the base of solitude was a waste of plastic and materials due to it being non lighted, besides sups did not fall, he was pushed by his doppelganger, i seen it.
my god.. why do you have to say the same thing 20 different ways.. ? i bet your reviews would all be 10 minutes less if you didn't repeat yourself so much.

He should have came with a bottle of Jim Beam
Those aren't the same head sculpts. The eyebrow, chin and lips slightly different and the evil version is more similiar to Christopher Reeves
I saw you mention in other replies that you probably will only pick up the Mark VII but not the Mark 42. Either way i'm really glad you might pick them up. I will look forward to your reviews
Are you going to review Hot Toys Amazing Spiderman when it releases?
Yeah!!1 Optibotimus congrats!!!! this figure is the best representation of first movie of Superman Awesome review bro!!! good gob!!

I love your videos watch them everyday. Im going to grab the Evil Superman because I missed out on the 1st one. I was not collecting Hottoys when the original came out. Also just wanted to know are you a professional toy reviewer for companies
I think the original plan for Superman 3 was the kryptonite was to create Bizzaro, and the computer was to be Braniac, but after numerous re-writes, we got the very dummed down version, lol.
you can easily buy kryptonite and other small accessories, Evil superman is a MUST for any collection,
Oh..ok.Well thank for relpying ,I really enjoy them,you're a great reviewer so I enjoy every review you make. Nice job :)
Hey Op, I know this review is two weeks old, but I was wondering if you plan on doing a review of any of the Hot Toys Man of Steel figure(s)?
The only thing I didn't like about Reeve's costume was that the cape was a bit short, it should've at least reach to the middle of the boots. And how come they didn't make a new head piece for this toy, he had a couple more curl bangs hanging down and had a couple brown streaks on the sides.
Is this one still worth getting?
Should I buy this one from original superman or should I buy the new man of steal which is from hot toys too

Hey optibotimus, you should do a review of the Hot Toys' Man of Steel figure, it looks really cool.
Hi, I'm from to Perú and I have parents in usa so can you help me if you tell me in what store can they buy?
The colouring on this reminds me a lot of the Superman returns
Just wondering, did you enjoy the modern Ironman movies, and more specifically Ironman 3? It seems like you won't pick any of their Hot Toys figures - so is it because you didn't enjoy the movies?

Although I haven't seen superman III though I think this is very accurate and an amazing collectable
I agree w all your arguments especially the stand.
awesome case
Best review on the Internet.
man love ur hot toys reviews there r awesome just pre-order him and pacific rim striker statue
"Really a Super Super package for a Super Man.Alright,that was corny." xD
Sorry but this is just a repaint. I'll save my money for ZOD!!!!
Going to buy Iron man 3 hot toys figures? Igor looks epic :3
What happened to the war lord figure
The destroyed rock base would be great to use for the man of steel henry cavil HT. just a thought.
his hair hangs down in front more sloppy in superman 3 and he had grey temples. they couldve painted the temples at least...
I think that head works better for evil superman. The normal one should have had the reeve smile :)
Optibotimus what can u say the hot toys man of steel superman.. is it bad or good im planning of getting it.. and for me man of steel is the best than iron man 3 im looking forward to ur hot toys man of steel superman line i wish u review them i love ur reviews and im 15 years old i dont have any hot toys and for me im ur biggest fan tnx you for ur entairtainment...
That base would look good with the hot toys man of steel superman.
Great review but to be honest I really can't see a different head sculpt. If you get tired of your purchase please send it my way. Lol
Evil Superman looks not only like Christopher Reeves Superman in the 3rd film but also what Christopher Reeves Superman would look like if Zac Snyder directed the original 1978 film!!!! 🤣
It's "Reeve" shithead.
Hot TOys sucks with all those variations. They make the same figure with a diferent paint. Like they do with all Marks, like they did with red snapper and peacemaker (95% the same). This superman should come with a angry face, red eyes and other things. It would be nice!
Really nice review!!!!
I love emo superman . I agree with you , his head doesn't work for me . He needs more grey in his hair and more of a five o'clock shadow .. that would have made this way better of a figure
Superman 3 came on today
I did not really think he was "evil" - just like I would have acted if I were having a bad day. Was more of a troublemaker / depressed superman. Course I still don't understand how fake kryptonite would make a clone of him- but thats 80s movies for ya. Great likeness of Christopher Reeve, he is still missed.
Your actually right bro
7 dislikes came from the company Gus worked for
Cool
Evil supermans suit is darker
eyebrows are different you can see it if you look good :D
Richard plier is in a game show called famlie fued

Remember the comic where Batman killed superman
superman vs evil superman
Love
He means wine

Wow cannot believe how many times this base has been recycled for so many figures. Hot Toys stop being cheap and make the bases to match the figures/movies/shows.
Fuck YES!
That stand should have been used on the original, the base of solitude was a waste of plastic and materials due to it being non lighted, besides sups did not fall, he was pushed by his doppelganger, i seen it.
But I now just noticed that his thighs are MASSIVE!
Dude, all you did was whinge about this.
my god.. why do you have to say the same thing 20 different ways.. ?
i bet your reviews would all be 10 minutes less if you didn't repeat yourself so much.
I bought Zod
It was amazing
This movie sucked. But Evil Superman was the highlight of this movie. I just wished it woud have focused less on Richard Pryor.
95 views :DD
i can see ur face :)
8th comment
xD
the movie was a disappointment.
