1/6 Hot Toys Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special Mantis

[Omega9300]

Heads up that Mantis is at ‘Low Stock Remaining’ at Sideshow.

Me personally, I want to wait and see if Hot Toys moves forward with the Vol. 3 version, and what that might include.

I can see the appeal of a wait and see approach since a suited-up version of Mantis has now been teased by HT. Mantis looked cool in her Ravager outfit in Vol.3 but personally I prefer her individual outfit from Vol.2. That said there are some very interesting possibilities for accessories with this Vol.3 version.

I can’t tell from the picture, but I still have hope for no seams on her antennae.

I don't think it's highly that those tiny little antenna can be injection molded as part of the larger head with anywhere near the success rate required to make it a viable option.

I'm doing the same- waiting for Mantis and Drax in the uniforms. On one hand, it kinda stings seeing the Holiday special (instead of a uniform look) releasing soon with Groot and Rocket. On the other, Vol 2 came out in 2017, IW in 2017, Endgame in 2019, and the Holiday special in 2022- it's about damn time.

 

[Raνen]

Hell yeah, those uniformed figures altogether look great. Perfect time to make a new Drax and maybe put rooted hair on Mantis

NO SLEEP TILL....

 

[squirtle]

I can’t wait for Mantis! Such a great character!

As a side point very happy she was announced when she was, as I think in today’s climate she wouldn’t have been made.

Yeah plus we can do a custom villain from Mission Impossible. Errr might still be a bit hard.

Only good thing about that film

 

[choombaz]

I

Only good thing about that film

yeah she was probably the best thing about it

 

[Damien]

I did not know about Mission Impossible
interesting
but for the figure the head just doesn't look like Pom
I have a third party one that I feel looks more like her
however that one is way too tall

They refined Mantis.

While Mantis has left a deep and lasting impression among fans from the Guardians of the Galaxy: Holiday Special live-action series, our team invested substantial time and effort in studying her facial features and fine-tuned the head sculpt to capture the endearing essence of her character.
From the delicate contours of her face to the subtle ethereal glow of her eyes and the curls at the end of her hair – every small yet impactful detail elevates the overall authenticity of this 1/6th scale masterpiece. We’ve also refined the figure’s body to ensure lifelike postures. And to add the finishing touches, the sweater she wears now features real fabric pom pom.
Sneak a peek at the final product of the 1/6th scale Mantis collectible figure. She’s here to reconnect with the rest of the beloved galactic team!

She kind of looks blank and sad...

 

[WolfBoy]

She looks depressed.

The sculpt is better, the hair is better, but the expression doesn't capture Mantis.
