Re: 1/6: Hot Toys - MMS4?? - Black Panther - New Black Panther Figure

I’m soooo glad I don’t collect Marvel as same characters with new figures based on another new movie are always introduced. Add a new design pattern here or there and give me my $250 B***H!!!!
 
Re: 1/6: Hot Toys - MMS4?? - Black Panther - New Black Panther Figure

Love the inclusion of the illuminated suit. Never picked up the CW version, so this will be on the radar at some point. In no hurry to pre order however.

260$ given all that we getting isn’t bad at all....ya need to cut the **** or perhaps look into a cheaper hobby....I was expecting 300$+ for it

PREACH ksteezy, you're on point!
 
Re: 1/6: Hot Toys - MMS4?? - Black Panther - New Black Panther Figure

Wow why is this so expensive? I mean the reflective suit and light up base but everything else seems kind of standard. To me this should be a $240 figure tops. I was thinking about ordering but it’s an easy pass at that price.

Well, you can play the upgrade game or just stick with what you personally think is best. My Marvel collection is tight:

Avengers Hulk
Homecoming Spidey
Diecast Mark VI
Civil War Black Widow
Upcoming Black Panther

Only other one I've (edit) *seriously* considered is Doc Strange but don't feel the overpowering need right now. I'll probably snag some future character here or there, but to be honest Star Wars is much harder to keep reigned in, although I succeeded via Draconian curating.

Glad I got the CW version, this is an upgrade but not in a meaningful way for me. It does look nice though.

I had CW and it's great, but I actually prefer the look of this one, hence the upgrade.

Amazing figure! A year can't go by soon enough.

Yeah, and from what I can see, I like my OSK headsculpt and CW version better. There is some cool stuff here - but...I need a Loki $$$. Also unless I really, really like the BP movie, nervous that re IW there might be ANOTHER BP release.

Finally, there's a looooong wait on this. Which may be true of all the upcoming figs, I just don't wanna commit unless I am completely sure. An IW BP *may* be easier to display with other IW figs.

Congrats to anyone POing this one tho.
 
Re: 1/6: Hot Toys - MMS4?? - Black Panther - New Black Panther Figure

While this does look pretty impressive, at $260 it is an easy pass for me. There are too many other, better figures coming out.
 
Re: 1/6: Hot Toys - MMS4?? - Black Panther - New Black Panther Figure

Ya well why buy this one when you can by the next one which will be better. I'd gladly trade my civil war version in for this but there is no way in hell I'll be playing this upgrade game any longer. Hot toys can continue to flood markets and kill the collectible nature of this industry, I'm out. Its just never ending. They are just a glorified overpriced mass produced black series commodity. There is no fun in collecting anymore especially at this price point, they are too expensive to collect them all (which hot toys wants you to do) and with newer versions coming out almost annually buying anything is just a waste of money since every year they will just come out with a superior version of the same character eg. better sculpting and paint. Its not about collecting anymore, us collectors really only want 1 representation of a character, the best version possible, but the way things are now with hot toys, you cannot have the best version unless you wait and wait and wait for the mcu to end, and then buy the last possible version. Seriously I'm not buyin anymore MCU or DCEU figures, unless the costume or sculpt really wows me, until the MCU/dceu has played its last movie or if the character dies in a particular installment. I'm also done buying the group movie versions unless the character has no solo movie like black widow.. the solo movie versions always seem to be better then the group movies for whatever reason, baring a few exceptions

I don’t completely disagree with you, and respect your decision, but you can apply the same business model and trend to just about everything material in this world. You buy your expensive phone/TV/computer/gaming system/car/clothes/physical media... and it’s all upgraded & better within a matter of months if not a year—trying to lure you to continue the cycle of re-buying what you already have (and usually at a higher cost). Hot Toys isn’t running some scam, it’s just business. It’s the way of the world. Have a good one.

Phones aren't supposed to be collectible, they are like TV"s and most automobiles they just depreciate until they are worthless. Collectibles, on the other hand, should at least hold some value if not appreciate, they won't make you rich like other sound investments but they definitely shouldn't become worthless like electronics or automobiles (unless they are classic) as time passes.

Yikes...

Honestly, it sounds more like your questionable motivation for buying toys is more responsible for your waning enjoyment of the hobby, than any company's business practices.

It's not HTs job to make YOU money via the value of your collectibles. And it's fine to collect things and hope they retain or increase in value, but basing your entire gameplan/happiness on that concept only gets you one place: the bitter, resentful one where you now seem to reside.

lol its not about money, I just don't need 50 caps in my collection I want the best cap but with hot toys I cant get the best cap until the final MCU movie plays because they keep making him, and each one they make is better then the last. Also I don't like the idea of paying 200 plus dollars every year to upgrade cap and put the old caps in boxes or sell them for like 100 loss. I could care less about getting rich off them, that's not why I collect but the idea of collecting something that is somewhat rare or scarce, is what makes something collectible. Otherwise I'd just collect ultra soft toilet paper so my ass is always happy

You’re not wrong! Though I would say someone could make a healthy argument that AOU Cap is better than the one that followed. I’m torn so I own both. [emoji23]

Then that's your decision to make. But it's not everyone's. Personally, if Cap was in 50 movies I enjoyed and wore 50 different costumes, I'd happily own 50 Caps.

So perhaps in the future you'll consider that you don't speak for all of us when choosing how to voice your dissatisfaction.
