Preorder the deluxe Mezco set bro for your custom Mezco head sculpt lolol. It’s a year a way, you can stash and save your money till then hahaha 😝 . That’s what I’m doing, as I also got a manipple for the upcoming Superman
Rec'd my copy last week & yeah blows the Mafex stock heads away and I'd say it's a pretty high quality likeness to Cavill but it's not spot-on so would not be able to classify as great (for me anyway). I think it's definitely worth the price though & am glad I picked it up as a major upgrade to the Mafex stock heads & it makes this Mafex JL Superman the best 1:12 scale Superman issue to-date imo. The skin tone variance by the neck & same for hands skin tone isn't bothersome for me. Looks fantastic next to the Mafex JL Batman & the SHF WW84 (w/Mafex JL WW accessories). Thanks much for the detail review.
@@DCSG81 I don't see enough of Cavill's likeness to call it spot-on, some but could have been better imo. Doesn't look as good as the ad pics on One Sixth Kit's site so slightly disappointing in-hand/on body (for me anyway). Still way better than the Mafex stock heads so I'll still take it, ha ha. Maybe it's cause you got the previous issue for the Mezco which looks nothing like Cavill imo so this one's much improved over that one but that isn't saying much.

@@thejmeister You know, you really did make me tear up with your comment. That's really nice of you to say so.

Nice review. Too bad manipple didn't give us extra hands. But hey I've got a question, is it possible to swap this head with the hush superman from mafex? the skin tone is quite close, just a little bit. Btw, I think that manipple was lazy in this product.
Great review!. I don’t have a superman character in my collection but seeing this review makes me wanna pick up a nice one!. Maybe the SHF version with a custom head… Heck yeah! These headsculpts you are showing are pretty amazing. I’ve seen a couple other third-party ones out there that look really good too. Quite a few versions of the Henry Cavill Superman are out there
Yes, there are a TONS of Henry Cavill heads out there and most of them are quite good but I feel this Manipple one have the more natural look of him. Hahaha.. You need to get yourself a Superman!
I think Hush Superman is the best one for now although Mezco is making a new classic Superman and they have just released the Reeves Superman which looks pretty great too!
@@DCSG81 That’s cool thanks for the input brother!. I like all the classic superman characters, but for some reason I’m leaning towards the Cavill version, but I notice right now it’s kind of tough finding a good head sculpt that’s in stock!. I’ve tried most of the regulars and everybody’s out...
It'd be easier to use Tamiya Weathering Kits to powder it, like applying makeup, until the skintone matches. With that neck part, since it will be hard to paint without accidentally getting paint on the edge of the suit, paint it metallic blue instead. That neck seam looks weird anyway, so painting it blue solves two problems.
Nice review bro. These are really nice. The only thing stopping me from getting them is that I don’t really want my movie figures to look exactly like the actors. There’s always some weird news coming out about them and I don’t want a representation of them in my house. 😂Do you get what I mean? 😂
Err, yeah i do get what you meant but I just remembered them as in the movie, not in their real life so it is fine. Just remember them as them in the movie character.
With such a price tag I expect at least somehow ressemble him..but the sculpture and skin tone is off. Mcfarlane's, after repainting at least can imagine the face. Can anyone please show whether Manipple head for Mezco can fit Mcfarlane after drilling or customization?
Does that head look good on the McFarland black suit Superman ? If so which head should I get?
I don’t think it will fit but you did gave me an idea, stay tuned for my new video..
@@DCSG81 does the mezco head fit with macfarlane superman?

Arrggss... don't tempt me!!! LOL!
Is it possible to cut of the part of the torso?
Where can I get this head, is there a page or is it from Ebay?
I don't think it is possible to cut, repaint maybe can.
So far it is sold out from where I know, not sure about ebay though...
You can preorder it from OneSixthKit now

@@vnishpt7036 Yeah I get what you meant. Hahahaa
I been looking for this but manipple new head on their site is different.. where else can i get this kind of head pls?
Hi, sorry to say once they sold out in onesixthkit, then it is hard to find. Maybe you can try your luck in FB groups.
@@DCSG81 oh man...im too late in the toy figurine scene😭
Maybe that pale section can be colored blue with a marker?
Yes maybe but I dare not to... lol
I see this headsculpt on ebay but it says shf. Is it meant for both mafex and shf?
Yes for both.
Does it fit mezco???
I just saw on the onesixthkit website this headscupt fits mezco, but on youtube just mentioned about mafex and S.H.F
This one is for Mafex and SHF only.
There is another one for Mezco.
Mezco is slightly bigger head.
Yes, that's annoying with the colors. Can't you use IW Thor Mafex's hands? Or does it have to be the Thor hands from manipple?
Not too sure though... I haven’t try it yet
really wish to have one do you have extra to sell?
Sorry, I have one only.
You can use Mafex infinity war Thor stock hands to match skin tone but pegs are still a different color
Oh great to know!
Will try it soon!
@@DCSG81 Hello, did you get to try it?
You can use the mezco version on the phicen male body
I think I tried and it still look big.
Do you have extra? Ive been searching around for the head, it is sold out everywhere? If you got extra im interested to buy.. thank you for your time
Where can I buy it?
Unfortunately it was sold out everywhere i check
@@DCSG81 ok. Thank you very much😊
Waiting for mafex peter b parker review 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️
Unfortunately I don’t have the budget for it as of now... 😓

That's a shame. Wondering if it's just that version of superman. Does it work better with the shf or other mafex ver
Not sure if SHF have the same issue
It looks awesome
Yeah it does!
Just the neck part..
DCSG 81 yea
Are you selling your Mafex Manipple head sculpt?
I'm interested in buying
No, sorry
great review!
Thanks Nate for checking out!
thanks for the review. i got mine too but was thinking of switching to mafex superman from shfiguarts. btw do you have a comparison video for supes?
No, I don’t have the SHF one...
@@DCSG81 no worries. thanks for your reply 👍💯

@@DCSG81 Yeah I should get myself one !. Which one do you like the most?. If you were me which one would you buy…?
I think Hush Superman is the best one for now although Mezco is making a new classic Superman and they have just released the Reeves Superman which looks pretty great too!

I forgot to mention the cost… Wow! Getting a Cavill body from SHF… 200 bucks… And a Mafex... pretty close to that too!
Is there a Tom Holland head
Oh yeah, Tom Holland head is like their first product.
It looks like the live action movie head.
Yeah it does..
Awesome head sculpt, but it looks like you’ve got some painting to do
My painting sucks...lol
It'd be easier to use Tamiya Weathering Kits to powder it, like applying makeup, until the skintone matches. With that neck part, since it will be hard to paint without accidentally getting paint on the edge of the suit, paint it metallic blue instead. That neck seam looks weird anyway, so painting it blue solves two problems.
Really nice sculpt,too bad about the hands,looks like the Sh Figuarts has pale hands also
Yeah I would assumed so too
LO QUIERO.🤩🦸♂️
I think you can still order it..
Paint the chest blue
I sucks at repainting.. lol
the head still a tad bigger than the mafex body..
Really? I think it fits perfectly.
the eyes seems a bit too big.
He got the goody eyes.. 🤣🤣

Just remember them as them in the movie character.
This Mafex head is even worse than McFarlane...
Hahaha… show me.
With such a price tag I expect at least somehow ressemble him..but the sculpture and skin tone is off. Mcfarlane's, after repainting at least can imagine the face.
Can anyone please show whether Manipple head for Mezco can fit Mcfarlane after drilling or customization?
Well, in my opinion, the resemblance is there.
