Definitely! The mask is wrong, but I LLOOOOOVVVEEE how they handled the
red. If nothing else, I want that sculpt so I can run a picture of it every time
the "Color Debate" rears its ugly head!!!

Black with red and white highlights?

HA!

No I kid, I kid......Seiously tho. That's just a shiny metalic red right? I never saw it as a chrome red on his costume, but after seeing it like that on the bust it really looks cool.

No -- the one up thread is the original -- came out a couple years ago -- sells for about $100+ on eBay.   The newer version looks like a re-cast knock-off re-paint attempt

Here's another custom (I think) job from the Statue Forum, and I like this look much better than the red chrome.  The head is still messed up and needs to be redone, though.

I always thought the outer suit was just cloth, but this is a comic book, so I guess there could have been some metal in there.

Trust me. The "red chrome" is perfect.

They both fall into the "Other Toys" category, just in different ways.

I had to look up and check! Then I had to recover from five minutes of
laughter.
