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

[Motuxmen]

He's in his rocky outfit standing next to rocky. Lol not sure how that's decieving. Lol

That would be cool. The catalog they put out each year is close. And there's a magazine that occasionally does that. They did a ten year anniversary issues two years ago that had every figure in it. Was very neat. I'll see if I can find it. Also, sideshow does or did a coffee table book so maybe...

Figure King/figure oh is the mag. The big spread I mentioned was a bit older then I thoughht...2010. Lol man time flies. But they do new figures each month too so that helps. Here's a few pages...

Thanks Motuxmen. Sideshow did a coffee table book? I didn't know.

Exactly! This would actually make me change my mind and buy him/it.

I can't stop looking at that Ultron Prime GIF. Very cool, but I can't help feeling it's too much to ask to expect HT to provide that capability in a 1/6 figure. I hope I'm just being a pessimist, because having that capability would be mind-bottling ("Yeah, mind bottling. You know, when things are so crazy, it gets your thoughts all trapped, like in a bottle.")

 

[Motuxmen]

Yea. I got one somewhere. I'll see if I can find it.

I'm not bothered about his cheeks opening as in the GIF, I just want another HS with the cheeks open. Is that too much to ask?

Sideshow's coffee table books are actually their hardcover "catalogs" and there are 11 volumes of it, i've never actually seen on in hand but supposedly they are very well made hardcovers, but only the last 2 volumes are hardcover and coffee table quality.

They are not standard catalogs. It's 265 pages. Very well done.

Exactly! This would actually make me change my mind and buy him/it.

I'd like an option just to remove the cheek irises completely, like a plug in section so when the mouths open you can take the piece out. Then people have the choice of the closed iris look or open without the need to engineer actual opening ones (which would be nearly impossible at that scale)

 

[Motuxmen]

On a side note, I have maybe the largest coffee table book ever. II think its 1000 pg and weights 50 lbs. and is stunning. Nothing to do with hot toys but it's awesome. Lol

OK, you have me curious. What kind of book is it?

 

[Motuxmen]

It's from an artist named Peter Lik. It's a collection of some of his landscape art. It's amazing.

Thanks; sounds nice!

 

[Motuxmen]

Yeah it's pretty neat. His art is amazing. I have a dozen or so prints of his.

I know that this was one of the AOU figures that was revealed fairly early but damn it, the wait is killing me....

Seriously. Saw this for the third time a couple days ago and both the movie and Ultron finally fully resonated with me. Dying for this and hopeful for an Ultimate fig

One thing that is interesting about this particular body of Ultron's is that it's basically his "Maximoff Twins" form. He only is this persona when they are his allies. The very first time he is revealed in this form is in the church when the Twins meet and join him. And then when they abandon him the *very next scene* with him is the Ultimate version ripping this one apart in front of the imprisoned Widow.

Hated that about this film. He goes from version to version to version in about 3 frames.

 

[PopCultKid]

I think there's a good amount of time he spends as Prime before he creates the Ultimate body

 

[guy66657]

I think what he means is that you literally don't see him create his new forms. I liked the Ultimate reveal BUT the transition from Mark I to Prime was the weirdest thing ever.

Like I stated in another thread, there was clearly a scene or more cut from the party attack to the twins meeting Ultron.

He just already in his Prime form AND the twins happen to walk in on him and wanting him to give them info they apparently got from an unknown source. We never saw what happened to the twins after Strucker's base. So yeah. We should've gotten a scene of Ultron getting his Prime body and the twins getting information to meet Ultron.

That.
