I broke down and did the same thing, but I went with TNS when KGHobby was (initially) sold out. I still have many concerns about this figure, but I am curious to see how she turns out and how she pairs with Gambit. Worst case, I'll sell them both off as well (except I have the X-team in Marvel...

While I'm glad to finally see this revealed, I'm probably passing on this (and maybe selling off my Gambit as a result... unless Sideshow magically pulls off an amazing Rogue). The head sculpts are pretty disappointing (the smiling one is worse), and the tailoring/proportions look off- the...

Thanks! And what's this about you having multiple versions of a character? That's the understatement of the year. :lol

So you got the last head... I was watching that listing. :lol Either way, I finally went ahead and picked up this figure from Sideshow (with a hefty coupon). I'm not sure if I'll keep it (I don't want to double dip on WW when I have the JL figure), but I have been curious to see how this...

I tried to pick this up, but I was out with spotty phone reception and couldn't get through checkout (I'd add it to my cart, then have it time out during the time it took to load). When I saw other people weren't able to use a coupon/rewards with it (if they even got through), I gave up. I was...

To be fair, that was a space cliff. She only base jumped off a high-altitude facility in this suit.

Exclusive, not that I'll really ever use the shield

Ditto-charging tomorrow. Another pleasant surprise with this release.

Ah, I didn't know that. Still, they actually put a magnet on her arm, which is neat.

I did NOT see a magnetic shield coming. I was expecting a throwaway plastic accessory, but leave it to HT to put some thought into the exclusive accessory for a change. I'm still not sold on the head sculpt (was never a fan of the EG sculpt), but I'll wait to see it in person to decide if I...

Was the 1.0 modded with the MoS body? If so, I'd say it holds its own against the 2.0. The new one has better tailoring, but it doesn't look like a huge leap over a properly modded 1.0 in terms of body proportions. "Yeah, we compromised, sometimes in ways that made us not sleep so well. But...

Valid point, but were there any authorized retailers that actually put it up for PO? I thought it was just the HK resellers that had it available, and I'm pretty sure they wouldn't do anything if a customer complained that the final product didn't match the solicited item. I don't even know if...

I don't know what the old "Coming Soon" page said, but the page now references NWH. This is one of the most bizarre things I've ever seen from HT- never thought they'd announce a figure under one license, then backtrack and announce it under another. Disney's lawyers must be having a field day...

Great likeness, but again, the usual Hot Toys thousand-yard dead-eye stare does it no favors. I was tempted by the third-party figure, but I like the color/costume design on this a bit more (even if I like the white outfit more overall). I agree the hair strands will be annoying to deal with...

Congrats on finally getting this! (and cool way to display the extra forearm). And I like this shot of Rescue displayed with the Mark XLVI. While not chronologically accurate, I think her more mechanical design pairs better with that than the Mark 85.

I had the same thoughts in the EG Cap thread when I got mine in. I really do like the likeness on the original Stealth helmeted head sculpt more, but the EG head sculpt seems to scale better (not great, but better) than the larger Stealth head sculpt. The two are on opposite sides of the...

Went ahead and picked up the EX from Sideshow as well. I would've preferred to wait until after it releases (and goes on sale), but I really like the exclusive helmet accessory and didn't want to miss out in case this is a home run release. The height/proportions still bother me, but I'm...

If you have the option, use a card that doesn't have foreign transaction fees. The exchange rate with the card company when paying in a foreign currency is always more favorable than having Paypal do it. I haven't seen Paypal charge an extra fee for foreign currency conversion before, but they...

As someone who owns the original Stealth Cap (and heavily modified it), this is a huge improvement over the original stock figure. It's basically Endgame Cap with the stealth suit, which isn't a bad starting point- there's some decent deltoid/trap definition as well as some narrowing to the...

Didn't they retcon Peter Parker into being the kid at the Stark Expo in IM2? If so, he saw at least the Mark VI in person.
