          Shane, that Reeve Superman is scarily good.

          Yes, it was a clever design, unlike a lot of the later spacesuits that looked like NASA could have produced them.

 |  Starting with the first TOS movie, Trek tech took a giant step backwards as everything became busier and more complicated.

 I have an obsessive nature, & thus need to be careful what I buy. For
 example, I have got into the Star Wars Micro Galaxy Squadron & have been
 buying far too many of these excellent ships.
 
 One obsessive collecting line I have managed to resist is Funko Pops. This
 despite some excellent X-Men, FF & Avengers figures.
 
 For Fathers Day, I have been bought a Wolverine, that includes the cover to
 mini series issue 1. Slippery slope initiated.

          Speaking of scarily realistic Chris Reeve Supermen:

          I find when I see photos of “hyperrealistic” statues/figures I am instantly distrustful. There are too many instances of pictures of the actual people being blended into pictures of the models.

          And MidTown comics has it for immediate sale. Hence my confusion. Everywhere I look it seems to be a different story.

          Does anyone know of any 1/6 scale Super Skrull figures? I am having a Sasquatch figure made in a very cool action pose and wanted to alternate how I display him between a vs against the Hulk and the SS. Thanks!
