With the price of the new Diecast Iron Man figures, Hulk doesn't seem so bad anymore!
https://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=30lGrarz3MQ&desktop_uri=/watch?v=30lGrarz3MQLook, for all you guys that have a "Hard On" for die-cast Ironmans, Endoskeletons, and whatever this will start a chain reaction for with Hot Toys, I've been collecting action figures all my life(we're talking well over 40 years), and I've had metal figures before.
They're not going to be the ultimate perfect replacement for plastic figures you think. They will only come with their own set of problems, consider moisture (yes, rust) on the paint job and the metal, the weight of the figure, what will happen if that figure ever falls to the floor, the wielding or whatever process needed to put the pieces together (what will it look like), cost, wear, or how they going to meld plastic parts with the die-cast parts.
And for you collectors that like to keep your collections consistent, are you going to sell off your entire plastic figure set and replace them with the new more expensive Die-Cast ones? Are you going to be happy that the die-Cast figures (because of the higher price) will come with little to no accessories?
Everyone really needs to think things over before you blindly put in your pre-orders and give Hot Toys the green light to go Metal on everything they can adapt it to, and raise their already increasing prices even more. Let them know, stay plastic or lose sales.
some of you guys are acting like hot toys is the only source of collectables

OK I am done. I just can't help it, best 30 secs of film ever captured!! It also a perfect response to nearly every post- how can u not laugh when watching it??????
Hang on, is HT going die-cast for all of its lines? I thought that this was just for the Iron Man line....
I just saw on HT's facebook page that they'll be releasing diecast truetypes. There's a teaser pic of the diecast muscle body. Looks awesome!
Do you want to share that link because you're seeing something I'm not seeing on their FB page.
The musculature is way off, and I don't like that skin tone. They need to get much better than that!
Let's face it, this is kid's stuff really.
Haters gon' hate. Personally I think a fully articulated seamless diecast muscle body is something to get excited about. I've already got a list of potential bashes lined up for these bad boys. I'm not about to pass on a $130 TT, but I can understand how poor people and collecting newbs like yourself - no offense - might have difficulty seeing the possibilities here.

Show me a 1/6th Hulk by a company other than Hot Toys that doesn't look like Play-Doh...
I will when NECA releases pics.
