I shoulda ordered my Sandman elsewhere. I went with Amazon and it still isnt here yet. They do have a blurb saying they release on the 15th, but theyve had these ship earlier before.
Nice looking figure! I tend to stick to the MCU figures though, I dont know how I could afford to start collecting the comic based figures too!
Just got mine in today from DST.

It would make more sense. Especially in this first appearance he constantly had a smirk anytime Spidey tried to hit him.

I agree, crazed smirk would've been the best choice.
Gotta say, im pretty pleased with that height difference, and the better sand shade

I think you hit it perfectly. Crazed smirk would have been cool.

If that's true, then they missed one crucial point: the T-1000 is a robot that has no feelings, no emotion. It had no anger, no pain, when she shot him, which made the scene even more chilling. Sandman is a vicious bully and definitely would express rage, even if he wasn't seriously in pain.

Exactly. I could definitely see that being the inspiration but it falls flat.
