The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I am also a big fan of CR Superman, especially the first one in 1978. To me, that's the definitive Superman movie.

I too would love to have a perfect CR Superman statue, preferably licensed one. I've been waiting for one for years.

I love the one by Arnie Kim but its price is prohibitive for most collectors including me, and it is not a licensed statue.

This one by JND is brilliant in most respects except the likeness. To me, there is no "good enough" likeness. It is either spot-on or off.

A poor likeness is always a deal breaker for me regardless of how great the rest of the statue is. It is a shame, really.

I will just have to keep waiting for a few years longer, I suppose, until some companies like Blitzway and Prime 1 decide to give it a try.

I believe they will come up with a much better likeness (just look at their Scar Face, John Wick and Neo) and a more affordable price point.

Pretty disappointed with the revision. I feel they should bare some responsibility to refund at least part of the deposits.

Yup.

It might not be tomorrow, or even a few years from now, but eventually something better always comes along.

Well that's why he said this will be the best Chris Reeve statue for a long time. On a side note I bet this looks really good after seeing JND's attempt at John Wick. At least this screams Reeve. The John Wick statue doesn't scream Reeves.
