So most ppl are leaning towards soosoo? I really want a bloodsport and I still can't decide lol. I don't really care about head sculpts as mine will have the mask on.. so I'm trying to decide who's tailoring and detail look better. Hmmm
Did you say “if” Hot Toys doesn’t make those figures?If Hot Toys don't make those figures I'm pretty confident SooSoo will.
Just expanding the comparison one step further.
The problem with Soosoo is the body looks too stiff. The abdominal straps are molded with Soosoo while Thunder Toys are fabric it seems which helps give a more natural pose. Thunder Toys just needs to have tighter fitting sleeves at the biceps.
Damn... I feel like the small details are more accurate on soosoo. Like the small placing of some of the metal pieces and how they line up.
Very true. Never ordered from them so that's a toss upProblem with Thunder toys is can you have any confidence in them to deliver a quality final product? With SooSoo we can.
You're also missing Thunder Toys underscaled helmet. They need to scale that up because right now it looks too underscaled.Very true. Never ordered from them so that's a toss up
I have a Thunder Toys figure and am quite happy with it. True that SooSoo has a longer history and I’m happy with the 4 or 5 figures I’ve bought from them also. I still maintain both should be good, with the chance of one being excellent in hand.Problem with Thunder toys is can you have any confidence in them to deliver a quality final product?

You're using a poor picture to showcase the shoulder pads on thunder toys. It's sticks out just fine in other shots(see Bleah's pics above). And Idris is definitely a slim guy in certain parts of his body, mainly the arms is what I'm referring to.You're also missing Thunder Toys underscaled helmet. They need to scale that up because right now it looks too underscaled.
I also think overall SooSoo proportions are better. Idris isn't really a slim dude. The side straps next to his abs are also not gonna give you any articulation on Thunder Toys that you can get on SooSoo. You're not bending his chest that much to the left and right no matter what. You'll be limited to his main center ab plastic piece anyways, which is pure plastic on both.
I've also never heard of Thunder Toys before. I rather go with SooSoo which has a good reputation and record of producing quality figures in the end and not just their prototypes. SooSoo armor detailing overall is also more accurate. Look at how flat ThunderToys shoulder piece is compared to SooSoo and the movie version. SooSoo has it right.

I bought their Keanu Reeves Constantine figure. I was very happy upon opening it, I believe that are also doing the Polka Dot Man that’s up for order too, might be worth buying the Thunder version for consistency.Thunder has a long history, it's just new name under experienced 3rd party company
