I’d die for Jayce and Viktor. I can see VI happening in some point. These companies are just insane for not jumping on Arcane.

Echo and Jayce needs to be made but let’s be honest, Vi being made is the very least thing they’ll do. Lines up with what they did with their League license. Do Cosbabies of Ashe and Kaisa, only do 1/6 figures of those two. Same situation here with Jinx and Vi.

Ekko with the mask on and the hoverboard is like the coolest design from the show. Would look so sick in the display.

Arcane was an absolutely amazing series. It has become my favorite animated show of all time, and probably in the top 10 series period. I don't know anything about LoL lore, but my son and one of my nephews are pretty big fans. Unfortunately, Hot Toys is probably the worst company to Riot could have given the 1/6 license to. Sure, the sculpt quality will likely be excellent, but these are 3D files. So it's mostly about overall art direction and the production pipeline.

For now, I'm holding on preordering Jinx as I'm not interested in a one and done. While it's possible HT could surprise everyone and actually produce a line of figures, their track record would suggest maybe 2 or 3 figures (one of those probably a tease that never sees the light of day) followed by crickets. I'm pretty significantly scaling back what pieces I'm picking up these days due to constant rinse and repeat and out of control prices, but I'd probably go down the rabbit hole with an Arcane line.

It's too bad the license didn't go to JND or Queen. In the case of either of those companies, I think not only would they produce at least 5-6 characters, they'd offer an assortment of options and multipacks.

This would be my JND/Queen list (HT would never come close):

• JINX/POWDER—kid Powder, late teen Jinx, alt universe Powder, final battle Jinx (Special bonus: Isha)
• VI—teen Vi, young adult Vi, enforcer Vi (other looks?)
• EKKO—kid Ekko, Firelight Ekko, alt universe Ekko, final battle Ekko
• CAITLYN—Enforcer, General
• JAYCE—Hextech visionary, h#llscape
• VIKTOR—HexCore visionary, reborn prophet/healer, final stage

2nd Wave

• MEL—Council, Magic armor
• AMBESSA—Battle armor
• VANDER/WARWICK
• SILCO—Zaun, alt universe
• MYLO & CLAGGOR—teens, alt universe young adults
• SEVIKA (slot machine arm)
• SINGED (music box and partial mechanical daughter)

If JND got the license you'd be paying $500+ for a basic 1/6 figure.

For rooted hair, yes. Which I'd be okay with. However, I'm sure sculpted hair would be quite a bit less.
Alternatively, Riot could have gone with someone like ThreeZero or Asmus.

Not when they're charging $400 for a "basic" version of a figure under their own line, with sculpted hair. Licensed figures would definitely have an increased price.

Personally I'm happy HT got the license, every other company is just crazy overpriced. Retail price for Jinx is pretty reasonable if you ask me.

When it comes to this line, get those two names out of your ****ing mouth!

I love Arcane, it’s my second favorite animated TV series behind Avatar: The Last Airbender, and has become a top property for me in general, but I’ll be the weird one who is cool with just having Jinx to represent it all. I welcome one-offs.

Vi is the clear runner up and I’d definitely consider getting her depending on which version they do but she sort of fell off for me in S2. Jinx had an amazing character arc from start to finish, something I didn’t get with Vi. I’m just more of a fan of Powder/Jinx and alt universe Powder lol. I find Jinx, especially because of her striking character design, can stand on its own more than well enough.

And as much as I love the rest of the cast, I personally honestly don’t need them in 1/6 figure form, nor do I think Hot Toys should even do them (just my opinion). I just think they should call it with Jinx and Vi.
