1/6 Hot Toys - VGM67- Jedi Survivor (Video Game) - Purge Trooper Commander

This being an exclusive and revealed on a Monday gives me hope they'll reveal Arcane figures this Friday or Saturday.

Hopefully. There’s other stuff that are pending to be announced too like the Romulus alien and clean T-800.

Well it looks like we get a new gesture hand for the left hand and a fist finally. Maybe they are gearing up for ROTS clones.

one can assume so.

After this officer next will likely be the grunt version purge trooper (either 1 with all weapons or 2 versions with alternate weapons) then the ROTS airborne trooper. That one may end up getting 2 versions so HT can stretch the mold usage but I expect they will space them out a bit. Maybe 212th first as standard release then later the 5th fleet version as an exclusive??

Another figure that’s exclusive for no reason

Another figure that’s exclusive for no reason

…besides their being able to charge more for it knowing that people will shrug and buy it regardless. That and they won’t end up sitting on a pile of inventory that they can’t move.
We might not like it, but they definitely have their reasons lol.

They can just increase their prices if they want, they do it all the time. Nothing new.

Then they can do what they're doing with every other figure these days, cut off pre-orders and send to waitlist after (X) amount of time.

There's no need for these limited exclusives whatsoever.

I agree, from a customer perspective there’s no need for these limited exclusives. Seems to me that they experimented with another marketing approach and it’s been successful. They’re creating a sense of urgency - you snooze and you lose. I’m pretty sure every one of these exclusives have sold out. If they give a 30 day order window or something like that, people are liable to get distracted and move on to the next shiny new bauble. That simply won’t do for Hot Toys lol.

 

[Darkseed]

Looks like there are three to be had….unless you have get them all or need this one what’s the rush.

 

[Brokenhandpuppet]

I can't decide if I want one commander and one melee or just two commanders.

 

[Combozilla]

Hold up, are we getting Ca!?

 

[slynger]

Hold up, are we getting Ca!?

I think he’s on the way. Several rumors about the character being further developed, maybe live action, HT will get him.

 

[Chamberlian]

I have no doubts we will get Cal, perhaps they will release him around the time of the next installment of the game which will be the last. Also I wouldn’t get hung up on the FOMO I have seen all these recent exclusives end up for retail, especially on Mercari.

Awesome, thanks- I don't collect star wars because where does it end I do however collect gaming figures and he'd be awesome

 

[chrisstbh]

Got one.

 

[darth dennis]

That was really easy. No queue, went straight to the product page. Good times

 

[Brokenhandpuppet]

Boom! love it when a plan comes together.

 

[Bunk1036]

Is it not limited? I was able to get one too

 

[SOU7567]

Got one.

Let’s see how long this one is up for. Thinking maybe a half hour at best.
