The final production figure looks ok, not too far off from what was shown all those months ago. If neca wasn't doing their mego version I'd be extremely tempted to get this as my first 1/6 figure.

You must not be familiar with NECA quality control... Oh wait, there isn't any. :lol (Also the 8 inch size is a bit awkward. For me, anyways.)

You must be very bad at making assumptions about people. I'm well aware of neca having quality issues from time to time. Hell I'm still waiting for replacement part for a predator. As for the scale, of course I'd prefer a regular style 7" Plissken, but I'll take the mego version if that's all we can get. I'm not a mego collector but I love what neca has been doing with their take on that style.
 
Really? Germans and Jews? :horror That's the best analogy you could think of when comparing a few people not liking a toy/figure? :lol

That is pretty light actually.

Some people have threatened death for artists because not all of Harrison Fords neck wrinkles were present or Vader not having visible brush strokes on his mask.
 
I really wanted to love this, I could deal with the head, jacket and shirt needing some work but the inaccuracies with the pants just bums me out. Honestly, while this may be a deal by some 1/6 standards, I'm in the rather pay more for more quality camp. That last 10% or so of polish continues to elude Sideshow.
 
I'm having a really hard time seeing the "discernable" differences between the prototype and final product. Definitely not enough to garner this crybaby kicking and screaming nonsense that is being thrown around. It's real simple, don't buy the damn thing if you think it looks like Captain ****ing Ron and not Snake Plissken.

Which it doesn't by the way.

People who cancel are going to regret it when they have to pay two or three times the initial price later.

I've seen the customs. All I can say and to quote Oscar Goldman, garbage. Pure bottom of the cat box garbage. Those customs remind me of the jenky assed Deckard and Batty I turned loose of years ago. Something to say you have but certainly shouldn't be so fanboy proud of.

Sideshow has been around a long time and in my opinion kept the 1/6th scale market alive when it wasn't "cool". Those goofy bastards took the shot and got collectors interested in looking outside of the ****** 3-3/4" market again. Hot Toys may be the hot**** in the game but their catalog cannot touch Sideshow. The sheer volume of work for good, bad, and ugly that Sideshow has put out over the years is amazing.

All the hate is unwarranted and unacceptable from people who've never done anything but repaint a sculpt they didn't make or modify dolly clothes they didn't sew.

Hot Toys does phenomenal work. We get it. Okay.

They still only focus on ******** iron man figures though. Or Arnold Schwarzenegger. They like him too. Unless it's Conan. Then he eats ****. Who honestly wanted a Matrix figure? Commando eats a bag of dicks.

I saw an earlier post about Hot Toys working the fringe with shout outs to Aliens and Robocop. Seriously? Aliens and Robocop? Both of those films were box office mega hits that spawned countless sequels or were the sequel to what became countless sequels. I believe they're called franchises. Much like Arnold Schwarzenegger who is a franchise in his own right.

Snake is an actual fringe character. A true "cult classic". One I guarantee is not and never was on Hot Toys radar. Not with Avengers 2, Ant-Man, Spiderman part one million or Pirates of the Caribbean 6000 on the way.

They make eye candy for mindless consumers to go "oooohhh donuts".

Stop fretting. You'll forget all about how "******" Snake looks by the time your flex pay for the overpriced next Marvel release comes out.
