1/6 Hot Toys - TMS003 - MARVEL: Daredevil - Daredevil Collectible Figure

[LIBBY1957DOG]

Wow! I wanted him to be shorter and smaller, but that does look shrimpy next to Cap. The angle from the pic could be throwing it off some. I wonder if it's the same size of, let's say, Hawkeye? I would have assumed they were on similar, if not the same, body.

dont have hawkeye to compare them ,but heres a couple of potato pictures that i hope help ,
tried to line them up with the bottom edge of the table to better show the difference in height and bulk

it sorta looks like they put him on a burt ward robin body

 

[TheBatman]

Charlie Cox is only 5'10" and doesn't have a very muscular body type. Might be a bit underscaled since Chris Evans is only 6'0"

Great review, thanks for sharing!

I'll keep popping.

Love your stuff mate, think you're in a reviewing league of your own now, don't rely on any gimmicks, great set up, very clean and professional - always wait on your reviews now to see a figure. I love that you're fairly neutral too, always finding good stuff about them, and you do great poses, keep up the good work mate!

Really means a lot dude. [emoji106]

Great review...I'm hearing a chirp in the background every minute or so; sounds like it's time to change out the smoke detector battery.

Man, I wish I could do something about it. I think I may have mentioned it in one of the past reviews because I got a few comments about it as well. The people that used to own my house prior to me, built the ceiling in the basement over an old smoke detector. Only way I can get to it now is to cut through the ceiling, and I'm pretty much saying funk that. This battery must be immortal too, because I feel like it has been three years. Lmao.

I think he's the right size and build in order to be accurate to the show. Can't wait for mine to get here.

If there's a scale issue, I think the more likely culprit would be Cap. Daredevil looks very accurate to the show, IMO, and I'm pretty sure we all know that there are issues with how Hot Toys makes Cap's torso.

I don't go off the actor's scale but the character. Downey is like 5'9 and is usually represented as 6'0 at least.

yeah i mark you right mate ,

their heads seem to be the same size though

swapped over

seeing this i wonder if daredevils head ,or on my figure at least ,may sit a little too low

here he is with his head resting on the ball not pushed on ,looks better to me now

your mileage may vary

 

[Asta]

I thought the figure looked a bit hunched up in photos and videos, and it throws off his physique.

Raising the head makes him look better.

I'm okay with the top half of the figure now, but below the jacket isn't so good (this is HT Robbie Reyes Ghost Rider all over again!)

It seems like a long gap from the bottom of the jacket to his crotch. And it's on the hips that the lateral creases appear with some poses.

 

[HDGuy84]

Head size and height are two different scales

 

[Jaymas]

Charlie Cox is 5'10 and Jeremy Renner is 5'9. It seems to me at this scale that should be about the same height. I think that's the figure we should use to judge if they got the scale "right".


Seems like it makes sense that body types at this scale get grouped into "over 6 foot" and "under 6 foot"; and I am okay with that. Chris Hemsworth is 3 inches taller at 6'3 than Chris Evans at just a tad over 6' but I am okay at this scale both being on an "over 6 foot" scaled body and about the same height for 1/6 figures. So then Daredevil, Hawkeye, Tony Stark should all be on the "under 6' body". If Daredevil is an original body I am not sure why they would make him shorter than Hawkeye (if he is? looks like he might be- Id love to see a side by side with him).

Would ankle extenders or longer pegs work with this figure?

Because he has those weird two part boots that expose a plug-in joint when the boot is bent too far.

My guess is they would "work" because there likely is material that gets "tucked into the boot" if legs are extended. The question is would his legs look too long that way? I think the costume already makes his torso look a bit short. Longer legs might not help with that.

I don't think leg extenders would change the gap in the ankle between the two parts of the boot one way or the other when over flexed. I think it would be the same, just further down. But I guess someone would have to try to know for sure.

 

[Platty]

Honestly this guy and his height and proportions are perfect in hand. Don't worry about a thing.

Adding leg extenders will make him look silly tbh. His legs already look long enough due to the illusion the short jacket creates. He doesn't need extending as that will make him taller than he should be.

 

[Drawbak]

I was hoping he'd be just a little closer to cap in height. But AoU Cap is probably a little oversized.

SS does say

AoU Cap is 12.20" H (309.88mm)
Daredevil is 11.81" H (299.97mm)
CW Widow is 11.02" H (279.91mm)


I guess that's not too bad, as long as DD is in between, and noticeably taller than Nat.

 

[RandomHero]

You guys know Captain America IS taller than Daredevil, right? Chris Evans is bigger than Charlie Cox, and way more built, and in the comics, Steve Rogers is bigger than Matt Murdock in every way.

Not sure what the problem seems to be for everyone. Cap should be a bigger figure by all accounts.

I don't think anyone was saying Cap shouldn't be bigger, the question was just how much bigger? I also don't think anyone had a "problem", I took the conversation as just a general question about the specifics of scale and how things look together. The figure's aren't scaled exactly so I think sometimes people feel figures should be a smidgen bigger or smaller sometimes by way of perception and preference, but again I don't think anyone is actually thinking the way it is as actually some sort of "problem".

AOU Hawkeye is listed at 11.81 too, so I think that's about right.

They should look good together. Hawkeye and Nat look great together so DD will with Nat too.

Ah...thank you for posting a pic of Daredevil and Luke Cage! I wanted to see how they would look together! I am even more excited to get this figure!

 

[ZombieGuy13]

DD does benefit from Low light. Looks good with Cage.

Totally. I'm really thinking in millimeters more than ankle extensions myself.

Yeah I think so too.

Found a pic off the web...

Cap's knees and neck look to me they may be slightly bent in that pic. ( I've done this with mine and it's weird how it actually makes him seem shorter) Which might make Clint and DD the same size, as Sideshow's specs say.

It's amazing how much difference tiny little things like a different base or a slight knee bend can make at this scale. I try to use that to my advantage in displays.


AoU Cap is 12.20" H (309.88mm)
Daredevil is 11.81" H (299.97mm)
CW Widow is 11.02" H (279.91mm)
Roadworn Thor is listed at 12.59" H (319.79mm)
AoU Thor is listed at 12.60" H (320.04mm)

Does his head really look disproportionate to his body inhand?
