1/6 Hot Toys - MMS284 - Avengers: AoU - Ultron Prime Collectible Figure

I don't think that's the HT sculpt. At least I hope it isn't.

I really want to like this figure and I was ok with the original proto. Now the nose area looks too flat and I'm worried that this will only look good while lit up. If Hot Toys can figure out how to add an AC adapter to this I'll be all over it.

We don't know if that's what the figure will look like, since it could just be an early sample proto that HT is using for exhibitions (especially since the chest sculpt is very inaccurate). That said, a lot of folks here originally wanted a smooth nose area due to the nose being too thick in its detailing on the original proto. And yet, now when we see HT try for the smooth nose look, a lot of people are saying they prefer the original proto.

Hopefully that isn't the sculpt because it looks way off.

This is exactly why hot toys and most companies don't listen to fans. You give them exactly what they want and they want to go back. Lol

They can not win. It's not just hot toys, but they are the top company at the moment with the most products so they get more of it.

Drives me nuts. People want more talk, more interaction, more listening. Then they complain they don't believe the statements, call it lies, say they don't listen and when changes are made they don't like them. Lol and everyone wonders why things are done like they are.

Hot Toys sure isn't winning nowadays.

"I'm glad you asked that because I wanted to take the time to explain my evil plan ...." *Blast*

Man that makes me laugh everytime

I really liked Ultron Prime in the film. This is one of the figures I will be getting.

I didn't do a side by side to see if anything else was changed for the worse, but the smoother nose section is a clear improvement. Those deeply engraved lines was the only real problem I had with this from the beginning.

Please tell me that's not the Hot Toys figure. The nose does look better but the paint apps, brows, and neck are terrible.

 

[DasMuse]

IMO, neither of them look right... But the one they used for the pre-order promo pics would be the one i'd rather have, if I had to choose.

Jesus ****ing Christ please give us the one on the left. Looking at it now, the new proto looks off as all hell.

 

[DasMuse]

I doubt it's actually new, probably just an alternate prototype... They have been showing both at shows lately (not at the same time) so who knows. I did notice that the "new" one looks a lot like king arts unpainted ultron prototype, but with color.

 

[FullMetalHippie]

To me it looks like the King Arts figure proto that was teased a while back. It even has the same shiny finish. Isnt the Hot Toys figure more of a gunmetal?

Too many unofficial pics swirling around that we don't even know what we're looking at anymore. Unless it's just me that's confused. That does happen on occasion.

If it wasn't on top of the HT stand, I would have sworn it wasn't from HT.

 

[Black Sheep]

I think this figure will be available for some time AFTER it finally releases. There will be plenty of in-hand pics then to help us decide. I initially was going to PO this, but now I'll wait to see. No point in locking in a NRD.

 

[Ultron-7]

I'll be getting this however it turns out, HT is a quality company and produce quality products. Rarely have they released a figure that is terrible.

I love the look of Prime in daylight, barely lit with the red glow. Such a badass design I've really grown to admire over the course of production and release of AoU.

See, I want that Prime. I personally don't have a problem with the face or body, just the neck

Didn't see that detail. Well, crap.

 

[Ultron-7]

Some nice art with the cheeks open on Prime

 

[WalkingDeadZombies]

please note that the prototype has now been changed, the head sculpt with more solid panel lines.
and the shoulder pad are closer to the body. it's evolving!

The head and neck look small and out of proportion
