1/6 Hot Toys - MMS285 - Avengers: AOU - Hulkbuster

looks cheap to me

Exactly my thoughts!

I want it all. Who wants to buy a kidney?

That's good to hear. Still, they've shown prototypes in almost every scale across many, many licenses and they have released very little product. They are definitely ambitious, but I'd be wary of the quality considering they have 9 million things on their plate at once and they're a new company on the scene.



Yeah, with zero figures released and still showing new prototypes I hope they can start delivering and not leave collectors high and dry.

Agreed, Play Imaginative's Super Alloy 1/4 and 1/6 figures in particular, rather soured the market for companies who are almost all prototype publicity, but very little actual product release (excluding the 1/12 versions).

I think a few people overreacting about potential second HB etc and holding back on PO.

Why would HT do this? Why would they release two versions of HB? Why would they even release another HB one year after the first HB? I can only imagine potentially another HB in a few years (5??) and perhaps it will be die cast that will cost 2x (or something) the current amount.

I highly doubt HT would shoot their themselves by announcing a second HB. That would be a foolish decision.

If they did this, I wouldn't be worried about my pre order, I would be worried about HT in general and the future of ANY line up.

So guys, be rational, clearly (if there is) another battlemode, it will come with this HB model. i am pretty confident of that. There will not be another HB until the next movie that will feature a HB or HT decides to improve on current HB which in any case, given the timetable of such releases (and that is IF the HB is featured in the next avenger movie, doesn't have to) might be many years away.

Are people really hanging on? At best all that might occur is an accessory kit but apparently I'm told the extras may just be part of what comes with the figure we're buying..., no way Hot Toys would try getting people to fork out for 2 Hulkbusters at the same time, not if they want to stay in business anyway. lol I'm open to checking out an accessory pack but would prefer the extras included really as it'll save me some cash.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

I think we're trying to delay the inevitable - plunking down that huge chunk of change - as long as possible.

 

[krzykoopa]

this thread is awesome

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Yep, it sure is. Let's see if we can hit 1,000 pages before the figure's even released.

 

[kevb0977]

1,000?!? got a long ways to go then..., the release is a long way off too though.

 

[2littlemoney]

may be the additional accessory is the canon on the right hand!

 

[Centrocal]

Those are stud shooters. Lego puts those on everything. And then they get lost after you fire them

 

[2littlemoney]

i just wonder. if HT said they cannot announce the additional accessory as it would
be a movie spoiler and not allowed by marvel. then why lego can?

 

[LexiKon318]

Haha Lego seems to get free reign. All of their sets give away what may be some key plot details.

 

[Centrocal]

Actually theres quite a few scenarios of toys giving away spoilarz to movies. This was on the shelf before the movie came out:

 

[swiftwilly]

It will be additional parts to this model for sure, from the pics there is a significant lack of additional accessories that typically comes with most HTs.

Hi, I'm new here.. Great thread with interesting post. Not a big collector though. So far only have DX12, Bat tumbler, ironman mk42 and recently preordered Hulk Buster. Hopefully there's only 1 version of hulk buster.. Haha..

Company by the name of Beast Kingdom is going to make a "life size" statue of the HB, along with other props from Marvel movies. Anybody got $21,000?

This would look great in the front yard.

Someone sneaked a video of this in secret base. Seen it in youtube/ facebook if you guys want to check it out.

Lol, don't need to sneak, I take videos there all the time. Just don't be a ********* about and be considerate to others who are also trying to view by hogging up the new release space forever. The staff at SB are super nice! Just ask anybody from HK. I'll post a SB HB video if any of you want to see when I have time. Didn't know anybody wanted to see vids since there are so many good videos floating around from Toysoul where it was displayed in glass 360. It's the exact same proto. The member with the British accent did a great one.
