1/6 Hot Toys MMS 186- The Avengers: Hulk- official specs and pics

Looks like they'll be plenty of Hulk figures to go around for those who want it, judging by some of these comments.

Well see how many will actually stick to their word that they are skipping this.

Sorry, I've been away the past few days and don't want to dig through 900 posts. Are the arms rubber? I would assume so given that they bend...

Rubber/PVC is the story right now.

Please excuse somewhat off-topicness, but I think this would be a dynamite diorama to create using the HT Hulk. Who hasn't wanted to see this?! Hulk could avenge all of society.

GO HULK!

Well that sucks. I'm staying away from the 1/4 stuff becase I know the prices on those will take things to another level. I am spending WAY too much on these than I first anticipated. But they are so damn cool, I can't resist. And I'll keep buying them as long as I can afford to. When I can't, I'll stop.

Funny how that works, doesnt?

And speaking from experience, usually the ones that are finding stuff wrong with a release are those that are trying to justify to themselves when they cant afford something....Not saying anyone in particular is doing that in this tread, but it can be a reason.

But those that arent happy with the price have a right to be unhappy, and theres no convincing them otherwise, same can be said for those that are happy and are getting shouldnt be getting **** for being able to afford and being happy with it. Telling people they "need help" for paying $300 for a collectible is uncalled for imo.

But really those that are not happy with the price, are you still buying it? If so then your complaint is useless. Youre just showing HT that youll pay it regardless and you are being a hypocrite.

And if you arent getting it, then whats the point of being in this thread? Just to come in and whine about a price you have no control over whatsoever? I dont usually go into threads that I have no intention of buying the product. I find it to be a waste of time. Theres enough threads here about products I am buying to keep me more than busy.

I don't necessarily agree with your first statement. It's been my experience that many folks are honest when they can't afford a figure or they are priced out. But I too stay out of threads of figures I have no intention of getting. Makes no sense to me to ***** about a figure you're not going to get.

Compared to an IM figure, he is more like a statue than an action figure, just a body, no intricate moving parts and reveals, so despite Hulk being a new, unique body, I don't look at him and see a figure demonstrating as much effort and skill to achieve as Iron Man or even the likes of Loki or Thor, and while a different line, Jack Sparrow has a very intricate and detailed costume an cost less. Not belittling the quality of the sculpt work on Hulk, the team did a great job but other than his size, nothing about Hulk stands out amongst the other Avengers figures to justify his cost difference. Sure he's bigger, but he's molded and doesn't require the time and ability of seeing costume pieces or assembling small working flaps and lights and other mechanical features.

I have an SS Hulkbuster statue, It's roughly 1/6 size (it's about a inch taller than this Hulk). It has 0 moving parts and nothing lights up.

It looks a lot simpler to make than any of the HT Iron man figures with all the moving parts and lights but it cost twice as much.....$400. From your argument it should have cost less......a lot less.

But the Hulkbuster is massive!! The Hulk will be massive as well. The box that it will come in will be pretty big. It's really hard to explain without it being in your hands. It's the size of a large baby.

I think the hulk would be harder than the figures with costumes because you cannot cover up or hide anything and with it's size everything is magnified. So you really have to get all the little details perfect.

There's still plenty of time for people to change their minds several times.

Got confirmation from my UK retailer, (onesixthbruce), of final price. $327 with delivery charges.

I can afford it.

I am happy.

Hulk will SMASH my shelves. (in 6 -9 months )

Re: 1/6 Hot Toys MMS 186- Avengers: Hulk- official specs and pics

I suspect most complaints stem from not being able to afford get this, or the whole team. And that’s fine. Some people can't be that open to say ITS COOL AND I'D LOVE TO GET THIS, BUT I CAN'T AFFORD IT

Not for me. I could afford it easy. I was just waiting to see how he looked, what he came with etc.

I think if HT had marked him at $325-$350 they would have priced a lot of collectors out and loss sales. But at $300 more people can justify that price

I kind of disagree. From a business standpoint it would have been smarter because 99% of the people who bought the Avengers would have still worked the extra 12 hours to get him. You simply NEED him if you bought the line. I doubt anyone with the line would have said "bugger paying an extra $50 for the Hulk"

Then for people like me looking at the hulk as an individual piece (I didn't buy any of the Avengers) had they bumped him up to $350 and gave me a nice display base and perhaps an alternate angry sculpt I most likely would have jumped on.

As it is looking at this piece in a bubble there is nothing attractive about it other than it's big.

Just a different view point for you guys but that's my thoughts. It won't really matter in the long run , this will sell well and you guy's will be happy with him

Hulk cost more ...Hulk more plastic !!

There may not even be a Hulk in the Avengers 2. Yes he was popular but they might want to remove Hulk from the roster to replace him with someone like Ms. Marvel, Black Panther or whoever else they may want to introduce. Nothing is a certainty so I'd jump on this whilst its relatively cheap.

And I think that would be a HUGE mistake on the part of the studio if they did that.

Not likely...Ruffalo signed a 6 picture contract with Marvel. Hulk here to stay.

I think you're right. The opinion's of the Ruffalo Hulk was very positive, hence the deal.

Re: 1/6 Hot Toys MMS 186- Avengers: Hulk- official specs and pics

i find it's best to just enjoy what we have in front of us! i know we all like to point out what can be improved and how it should be cheaper, we all want the figure to be exactly how we imagine it to be. but at the end of the day, just enjoy seeing the figure made and stare in wonder at how it turns out.

all these figures are never perfect but they are wonderful in their own way, not unlike different people are.

whether you pose them or play with them, it brings joy and fun!!! (occasionally heartache...)

that's what i love about this hobby and collecting.
it's worth it.

Over the past few months I did think the the price would be way beyond the $300 mark so I was pleasently surprised that it came in just uner the $300 mark (depending on where you order from). What's done is done. We may aswell debate/argue about something else now.

As did I. Hence, I was very pleased with the official pricing.

Well that sucks. I'm staying away from the 1/4 stuff becase I know the prices on those will take things to another level. I am spending WAY too much on these than I first anticipated. But they are so damn cool, I can't resist. And I'll keep buying them as long as I can afford to. When I can't, I'll stop.

I know what you mean and feel the same way.

Is it?

Hey, something I'm wondering is... You can't bend his arms so they are straight right? Won't be able to do... Hulk punches Thor poses...

But I will be able to make Thor knocks Hulk with hammer pose.

Time for an encore!

Thats a bummer. Ive actually started using SS more recently because of the FREE Domestic Shipping and the Rewards Points and the fact that they get their shipment out to collectors before retailers as of late. Having to wait a moth or so more for releases like DX05 or DX06, 08 and 09 kinda sucked. I was hoping to have more points ready for Hulk too, but DX07 was delayed so Im bummed I couldnt use more for him. But what can you do.

I understand why they went with the arms the way they did, but honestly I would have been fine with joints. I can accept these as high end FIGURES more so than others so either way wouldnt bother me. And as much as I would have liked the extra head/base/hands that I was assuming it was going to come with, Im glad they didnt include them if it would have made the price over $300. So Ill take this bare bones version no problem.

Im sure a Banner release with a roaring Hulk head will probably be in the future and a Hulk 2.0 with a base and more accessories, but I can pick those up loose down the road if I want them that bad.

I hope you're right. Instant buy for me!

Hi centurion may I ask a question? In singapore when a new figure release for preorder normally the due date will be few weeks after that even if we manage to get it the price will be markup even more.. so how does that work in US or other part of the world? It seem like you guys always said wait and wait until hand on picture to decide...
