      Keep them coming...but the head should be original, not a Superman repaint.

            But why? To "re-use" Heads...is VERY Mego! Mego did it with Bruce Wayne/Tex Willer/blue Eyed Astronaut...Alan Verdon/Cheron...POTA Astronaut/Kit Willer...and so on!Plus...I think the Superman Head was the PERFECT match for Commander X.

              Put me down for one as well! So what's the ballpark release date/ Any chance we can get him by Christmas?

No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

                I agree. I would like to see Kent and Parker in blonde paint schemes. Scotty with brown or blonde hair might offer up some customs possibilities as well without having to create a new mold. Not sure about McCoy and Kirk, as those sculpts are so on but maybe. Cheron's head might have some other possibilities. Adam Strange and Starman if you add a fin. Johnny Quick with some bolts added. Wonder how Bruce Wayne would look with blonde hair? With the number of heads CTVT did I'm surprised they didn't do some different paint schemes to get max use from the molds they had to make. Figure the knights alone. Ivanhoe is a great sculpt. I used it on a Dr Strange custom I did, and it looked great. Might look good in brown and blonde. Lancelot, Galahad, Will Scarlet, maybe even Blackbeard or Little John. Haven't even gotten into painted masks and what might have been possible. Love to see Docs Supergirl head available in multiple hair colors and styles.
                It's not a doll it's an action figure.

                  Sweet. Don't know the character but I'll get one. I'm all for anything like this. It's a good time to be an 8" collector.

                    Busting Someone's nads for a "non origional" head seems alittle harsh in a thread where someone is offering a Never before offered Super Hero in this Scale, at an Afordable Price. This is a Fantastic 1ST Effort imo,.. & look forward to the figure & future Offering's . I aploude all Parties Involved.

                      You guys certainly captured the look of the character. I think it is a pretty cool project, and I also like the cards. Great job.

                        Like I said in the other thread...I love him and really want one. On my favourite WGSH head and all YAY. I reckon his mask should be a little bigger, like in the picture.

                          Couldn't agree more.
                          Well done on Commander X, he definitely looks cool

                              Wow....thanks Jason(and EVERYBODY!). The decision to use the Superman Head wasn't made lightly...plenty of thought went into it, and based on Jay's influence's on the creation of Commander X...it made sense. But I'll let Jay explain it better.

                              Commander X will be a fairly limited run...but if He sells well...ALL profits will go directly into the production of the next Figure! And the next Figure will have an "ALL NEW ORIGINAL" Headsculpt Rotocast in China!!!!
