1/6 Hot Toys - Star Wars: Episode III ROTS - Kit Fisto Collectible Figure

[Mr. Awesome]

Our expectations just got fisted!

Reminds me of a joke.

You know who likes to get fisted?


Sock puppets.

Now HT have apparently mostly finalised the sculpt and committed to the figure hopefully it opens the door to a 2003 CW buff shirtless Kit in the near future, complete with a 2003 CW Scuba Trooper

No moving eyes just like the Mace sculpt. HT being lazy all over again. Such a shame another fail. Easy pass…









Jk - figure looks amazing! Still passing as I never really cared about Kit Fisto even on TCW but happy for those that want him. He’ll definitely stand out on the shelf

I've read quite a few comments in this forum about Hot Toys collectible figures these days. I always have to realize that it's a matter of taste when it comes to each individual collectible figure. As a collector, given the prices, you can of course expect a certain level of quality and reality from the collectible figure. Is there a perfect collectible figure? I don't think it's a matter of opinion or taste. Be that as it may, I'm not a Star Wars fan and I think Darth Sidious, for example, is awesome!!! Is he perfect? No, probably not. Nevertheless, I'm looking forward to welcoming Darth Sidious with Darth Maul 2.0 to my collection of villains soon.

You have got to be kidding me.

Pass. I hated the film version of him. Whew! Dodged a bullet.

If only we could dodge the bullet which is your comments.

Aww
I don't like something you like and you're upset about it.

Hmph!

You'll be alright.

I think it’s very simple. Hot Toys should be consistent across the board and make their figures as screen accurate/close to the source material as much as possible. Darth Maul 2.0 and Kit Fisto are recent prototype examples that are basically great and really screen accurate. Unfortunately, ROTS Darth Sidious objectively isn't. In terms of final portraits, there is a vast disparity between the recent Shuri, NWH Peter (Final Swing) to the Mace Windu portrait.

You also say you’re not a Star Wars fan, so perhaps that’s why you don’t really see what’s off about the ROTS Darth Sidious? Regardless, all of this could be avoided if Hot Toys simply went all out with all their figures which imo, I think they’re more than capable.

It feels like HT are going back and releasing stuff lingering in convention hell.

only two remaining, Death Star Trooper and Baze. List is no longer that long for StarWars.

I already have the comparison between the film and Darth Sidious from Hot Toys. Yes, sorry, I'm not a Star Wars fan and so I probably have a different view of this 1/6 scale character from Hot Toys. Darth Sidious is he Perfect - No! Is the film implemented accurately? No, probably not, although I saw the film recently. Now to the crucial question: Despite the shortcomings and the certainly right criticism of Darth Sidious, do I still think it's good? Yes! It's just a matter of taste. I still understand your displeasure! Otherwise, Darth Maul 2.0 looks really damn good.

Holy hell did this go from 0 to 100 real quick lol

I do apologize. It went south. But I meant it.

 

[chrisstbh]

Plo next?

 

[BurningRage]

1/4 Stormtrooper

 

[chrisstbh]

Pre-ordered. I never lost hope.

 

[AssassinHood]

...Well, did not see this one coming.

Pondering a PO for this guy, but if there is anyone worthy of a spot in my Detolf besides big names, it's the guy who survived the longest against Palpatine besides Mace. Always liked his design.

 

[darth dennis]

This right here. A thousand times this.

Live action Kit is quite possibly one of THE most ridiculous looking Alien creatures in all of cinema - for me, personally.

CW Kit looked amazing.

Put the pitch forks down, folks...

They did give him his CW gauntlets to wear

only two remaining, Death Star Trooper and Baze. List is no longer that long for StarWars.

And snowtrooper commander... and 212th trooper..... and airbourne trooper.... and rangetrooper... Poe... etc. Just a couple

 

[jaztermareal]

Why are mummy and daddy fighting??

Holy hell did this go from 0 to 100 real quick lol

I wish theyd stay away from using pleather boots. the direction they went with maul so sooo much better going with the sculpted ones.

Doesn’t work with this type of boot. Leather or nylon is the way to go.

Neat release. Not eager for fish but might get it one day.
