1/6 Hot Toys - MMS 296 - Avengers: AoU - Vision

I feel like $219 is the new $189

Oh it's definitely the new $189. I remember when Hawkeye was $179.

Pre-ordered!

And one day (probably soon), $239 will be the new $219...

Yes 219.00 seems to be the default price. I really hope they work on the face, it's really stopping me to buy this. Any news on a new Thor?

Just pre-ordered from Toytards, Vancouver Figures and Collectables, great place for Canadians with their flat-rate shipping across Canada.

Just took a closer look at this site and their prices are very reasonable. Most Canadian sites price in US now (or the Canadian rate matches the US after conversion), but these guys are way less (e.g., Tauntaun is $40.00 CAD less than straight conversion, plus no duties and at least $20.00 cheaper on shipping). Will use them for my next few pre-orders and see how things go. Thanks for posting it, SaintSoy.

Ha, the body suit is actually what's keeping me from getting this but I really hope they fix the sides of his head. I could live with the current head sculpt.

Headsculpt, bodysuit, cape... I'd rather wait for Vision 2.0/3.0. In regards to design, no-one can make an argument that this is a classic (despite the rough fidelity to the comics, ironically) that needs to be snapped-up while available. I'm very comfortable to watch this one sail by in hopes of better prospects down the road.

Wasn't the Avengers VI also $189

Yep. the only reason i picked it up was because i wanted a Stark HS and they were around $80 at the time. The Avengers VI went up for PO and i thought to myself "cool a HS for $80 and another suit for $109".

What's wrong with the body suit?

What is with the uninspired look of the AoU head sculpts. They look lifeless.

He does look very sad head on.

 

[ScottPSU]

I'm very satisfied with how this looks and it's still only a prototype. We have a long time before this gets released.

Ordered! Will look awesome on the shelf of robots.

 

[bransen2099]

I'm going to order, but I don't think this'll sell out soon so I'll wait for a coupon

 

[batman232]

As much as I would like this figure I think I'll wait till the next one Secret Wars . Not making the same mistake as Hulk. But it is a nice looking figure, cape needs work.
