It is definitely the best Kent head that I have seen! All of the others are a revised Hot Toys Superman sculpt, which does not make for a dynamic display. I am replicating Kent's look from Superman the Movie in his first appearance. All that I require is this amazing head and the tie!
Come on Duabelas make us an Evil Superman head!

I agree. I want a true evil Superman sculpt--not just a repaint.
Definitely liking the smirk. There are a ton of possibilities with the more expressive HS.
I am guessing it hit the western states first and is moving eastward? That is just a guess. I saw some go up on the OSR facebook. The sculpt looks incredible.

I just got my sculpt, and I gotta say it looks nice. But I am sorely disappointed at the paint application. I have received one with a giant paint chip under the mouth making it unusable to me until I repaint it. However, I got too much going on and sad to say I'm gonna have to let it go for cost. PM me if you are interested.
Oof so sorry to hear! That is really unfortunate. A perfect opportunity for someone who want it specifically for a repaint.

Got mine today... And I sadly have the same sentiment. Sculpt is really nice, but the paint work seems a bit rushed. Mine doesn't have the hair fully painted where it meets the skin (or it may be overspray from the skin on the edge of the hair), leaving a really noticeable lighter edge. It makes him look like he has gray temples, but only on one side. His eyebrows are also painted really lightly and almost look shaved off.
It isn't something I can't fix by hitting up the hobby shop and buying some flat black paint... But it is a bit disappointing after the delays to get a product that feels perhaps a little rushed.

Received mine today and I am not very happy at all. The head and glasses were not package properly in case of being squashed. Due to this the glasses got bent and the end of the glasses punctured through the bag and has scratched the paint work on the sculpt. At $95 this should have been protected better! This is going to need a repaint, its not possible to just do touch up unless I can get the colour exact.
Oh my.... I am terrified now, mine should be here today, and I am almost too scared to look!

I too was surprised by how little packing material was involved with these... Mine thankfully got here unscathed (the issues on mine were there before shipping), but I am really sorry to see yours showed up so rough man.

Mine came! Overall I am very pleased. I do see how issues could arise in shipping, it should have been boxed and padded instead of mailed bubble wrapped in an envelope. That being said I love the sculpt! Here is a rough photo of my Alleyway Clark Kent. I am still awaiting the tie that I commissioned. Aside from that it is done to my liking!

This arrived yesterday. I was surprised by the lack of packaging because it could have easily been put into a small box, but it arrived fine nonetheless. Personally I'm kind of 50/50 with this one. Looks good but not necessarily setting the world on fire. I may end up selling I might keep. I don't really know if I need a Clark Kent.
