Official Images for Christopher Reeve as Superman in 1/6 from Hot Toys
Yesterday we brought you sneak-peeks at the Christopher Reeve SUPERMAN in 1/6th-scaled sculpt from Hot Toys, today we present to you the official images! And they are absolutely stunning! Kudos to Arnie Kim for the facesculpt! And what about that Limited Edition "Kryptonite on a chain" accessory? And that fabulous "Fortress of Solitude" mini-diorama? And do I really need to state the visually obvious? Superman has a super-"man-package"! (Interpret / Read into that what you will ;p)
UPDATE: Sideshow Collectibles has it listed for US$209.99 per set, with a 4th quarter 2011 ship date. The Sideshow Exclusive comes with a Kryptonite neck chain, available only within the U.S. and Europe.
And while product details are still pending (aka the HT website is malware-infested, hence I cannot grab info ;p) - here is the text posted on HT-FB:
Amid very high anticipation, we are proud to present the 1/6th scale Superman Collectible Figure from the classic superhero movie Superman in 1978.
We’d like to share with our fans that a portion of this collectible figure’s sales benefits will be donated to the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation by Hot Toys Limited. The Reeve Foundation is a charitable organization dedicated to curing spinal cord injury by funding innovative research, and improving the quality of life for people living with paralysis through grants, information and advocacy. We hope that we can contribute to the foundation and the injured through the enjoyment of collectible figures.
