1/6 Hot Toys - MMS276 - Commando: John Matrix Collectible Figure

[holtrax]

This thread is going the same way the BD T800 did. Everyone said it was horrible when the first pictures came out. Head was too big, too soft. Now it's the most fantastic figure ever done by any company. (Of course, I'm not in that camp.) Let's just see what happens when more people get this in hand.

Totally agree. Its being examined at a super magnified level which is always gonna show up faults. No headsculpt ever done by ht can stand up to that level of scrutiny and be perfect. Like you said lets wait till its in hand and then make a judgement.

Could always pose him like this..

Name that movie.

I didn't think the sculpt was too bad but I see Kurt Russell more than Arnold in these pics...

Prototypes will always differ from the final product. Sometimes more so then others. Just look at the Great Robocop colour fiasco 2015.

I see a de-aged MMS117 in those pics....so I guess kinda like the MMS136 head if it had a crew-cut.

Now the Robocop colour thing was a fiasco. That was just nuts

 

[JacktheRipper]

I'm sure he looks better in person because I do see Arnie in there. However, with many of the photos I keep seeing Howie Long:

Does anyone know if this has any type of ab crunch in gut area like the Dutch body

Just found his thread after looking at pics on Fb for a few days. What's the general reaction? Mine was it looks like a poor repaint from 5 years ago.

Not many like it. I do though along with maybe another 2 or 3 people on here. I think there's a whole bunch of pics it looks great in plus the one natural shot of it I've seen looks great too:

no ab articulation, just like the mark 3.

 

[rivera2171]

I wouldn't trust any kind of ab crunching with a rubber body anyway.

hot toys dutch had it thats weird

 

[spekerol]

2little money do you have it is that how you know?

This is THE figure that started me buying Hot Toys, so dammit, I'm having him... He'll have to be Nathan Drake levels of prototype pulling the wool over our eyes before I'm hugely disappointed...

WOW everything looks so Hasbro sorta but it has a lot to do with LIGHTING..... lighting is everything if you use flash it is always gonna look like crap

 

[Jokes & Bats]

Looks like a very expensive Action Man from Toys R Us.

And clean. Way too clean.

 

[shells075]

His veins are pretty neat.

jokes & bats it does unfortunately look like a very rushed figure, why they rushed this i do not know it is almost like they loathed doing a military figure
