Here's the link for y'all

It's cool, but a little bulkier than one would expect... The new suit is a lot thiner than the last one, so you'd think the figure would be sleeker.

Eh...not sure what to say about it. Its nice but not exactly what I thought it would be. There's something about the shoulder pads and facial expression thats off.

At least the packaging art is cool.

Yeah, the chins to big and the shoulder pads are seperate from the figure, unlike the actual costume which the pads are part of the suit. It's a shame too, it was the perfect chance to make an inconspicuous ball joint, if only they'de stuck with the design of the movie instead of changing things.

I like the body. It looks pretty detailed considering how the new costume looks. Its a shame since we all know how amazing the Four Horsemen are when it comes to making toys.

The prototype we were shown last year had a better head and the shoulder pads were attached to the body. My hope is its still in the works.

I do believe the prototype we saw was the sculpt for one of the other series, and that Four Horsemen has kept these under wraps.

Anyone else think calling it a "Hyper Figure" is a painfully impotent way of attracting collectors? Who are they selling these to, 8 year olds?

P.S. What's a shame?

Its a shame that while the body has great detail, there's that odd head scuplture and shoulder pads not attached. We know the Four Horsemen are very detail oriented so I'm hoping they go back and fix what looks off.
