    Good. It's been a problem since their CTVT days. Some of those Space: 1999 guys had massive noggins.

      So SO Sooooooo Sooooooooooooooooooooo GLAD 2 HEAR THAT! You have NO idea How HAPPY I am to hear that & will be optimistic (although cautiously so) about future releases having normal (in scale) heads! I wish it can come to fruition for Ras Al Ghul & Commissioner Gordon too! That would make me so happy, especially if by some miracle it's not too late for the 2 I just mentioned (+ BIZARRO) & then Alfred ended up being the ONLY WGH release w/ the giant noggin! I could live with that since 1 stand out big-headed figure isn't really a BIG deal to me, 3-4 BIG HEADS will literally make me very sad! :( *So GOOD NEWS! I once said that a FTC rep told me on the phone that they were aware of the Wave 1 body issues I was reporting, because they not only read their facebook page, they also were completely aware of all the comments on the megomuseum! So between us commenting that it's a BIG deal to us (pun intended), & last night I counted that 9 out of 18 comments (50%) on the SUPERMAN Wave#1 pic being negative, it looks like they are on it! *Good 4 you FTC,......even better GOOD 4 SALES & therefore GOOD 4 US ALL!

        Good for FTC! I think all of us are hoping they will be successful with all their remegos. The better figures they make the better any line they produce will perform, can't wait to see the newly corrected heads.

              I'm going to wait before I start buying any more future figures.

              I got the Invisible Girl head in the mail the other day, and it LOOKS all right.

              It appears to be a bit smaller than the Supergirl heads that they have, but I HATE the paint app!!!

              The eyes are too pale, the white highlight dot overpowers the pupil, and the paintjob on the mouth! Don't get me started on that.

              The hair is actually quite nice though; not stiff in any way, and it has a good hand to it. But that creepy smile has got to GO!

                It would be a great gesture of good will if they would shrink the Alfred head and offer replacement heads free of charge or very cheap.

                  That would be amazing, but I wont' hold my breath.
                  I have actually seen Ctvt herman heads that were different sizes. But I assumed that was an accident.

                    I haven't pre-ordered Bizarro--waiting to see if they fix the head issue on him.

                          Great news! Shows that they're aware of the issue and plan to do something.

                            There is a God!!! Looks like the Lord heard my prayers...Thanks for the good news Player...You made my day.
                            FTC- You guys are on to something good and unique here...You're bringing back wonderful memories (and then some) with your DC line of Action Figures. Please fix the head size on Bizarro, Alfred (via remake), and Comm.Gordon.

                              No problem. As big of an issue as this is for a lot of you I figured someone should post the news here.
