i also want to make a quick summary...
to those who now still owns hot toys....

"STOP CONSOLING YOURSELF, GET RID OF THOSE DOLLS, PURCHASE SOME PF FOR THE GREATER GOOD"

nokia owner: hey man, nokia is the best, blackberry is hype, iphone for grandma and grandpa type user

blackberry owner: hey man, iphone is like for fun, blackberry is the ultimate communication tools.. nokia? what is that a phone brand?

iphone owner: im glad i own iphone, now i can play angry birds 24/hours a day..

iphone + blackberry owner (no money problems): both has its function, some days i use iphone, some days i use blackberry, sometimes both, depends on the occassion, they both great phones..

dolls owner: 1/6 man! pose here pose there man... PF too big for me, no space for me, 1/6 is the best..

PF owner: PF is the correct size for collectors, it is such a beauty, unlike dolls..

dolls and PF owner: they both nice collections..

PF owner that converts from doll: here doggie2, hottoys for you.. good boy..

doll owner that converts from PF: FUFUUFUUFUFUUFUFUFUUFUFUFUUFUFUFUFUUFUFUUUF

Get over it man. Everybody has their preference and one is not better than the other. It's a matter of personal preference. You're not going to brainwash anybody just because you keep repeating yourself

i just like to waste my time and try to save as many collector as possible.. but you are right, it is a matter of personal preference..

however some hottoys owner does not even realize statues like PF exists.. and not owning them before.. BLINDS them..

I think everyone that visits this forum know they exist. Like I said, I have both and even some 1:1 and Maquettes, and it's all about what you like, not the scale. I'd even say that you have more choice and better likeness with HT than PFs.

well i know a lot of my collector friends that knew statues exist but that just it, they never really bother with it, till i show them my collections and brainwash them with my willpower, finally they all convert to statues... no more dolls... they are just too small and cheapy and plasticky... iron monger for 400 bucks? come on.. not even when i like honda / toyota, i have to pay ferrari price for it..

We all know that HT is overpriced, but some could argue that a lot of statues are overpriced for some of the crappy paint apps and likenesses you get also.

 

[dvdwyn]

yea yea u are correct.. like i said im wasting time here and repeating my self and brainwashing people... and im not giving up..

because PF is that worth it..

Unfortunately I've never seen a PF first hand, I feel like I might have to buy one to ultimately decide. On the other hand, like most people I really dont' know that I have room for them even if I did decide to go that way. But, it really just doesn't sit well with me, that 1/6th are barely cheaper than PF.

I personally love the posability and playability of 1/6th, though I find myself actually tinkering with them very little. I think its humerous to tell people that I collect dolls. Just remember this, people who try to act like they are cool, are never cool.

As silly as it sounds, buying one to "try it out" is not a terrible idea. I waited quite awhile before I bought my first PF... I ultimately decided to get Darkness and pre-ordered him on day one. But ended up passing on him when he was first released and bided my time before getting a deal on him from a board member. I think I got the exclusive for around $275 shipped which was about $75 below retail.

You might pick one you really think you would like and then look for a good deal. If you buy an previously displayed one (where the value of the piece has been stable for awhile) you really don't risk losing much if you don't like the piece, but if you buy a new one and open it you're probably throwing away $50.

to those who never own PF.. just try purchase one of your favourite character... then you will see what happen..

after watching that video, you might want to request hottoys to make 1/6 Will Ferrell then.. he is so damn cool... he never try to act cool..

"the more you ignore it, the cooler you look" + "walk away in slow motion", LOL best video ever..

i also want to make a quick summary...
to those who now still owns hot toys....

"STOP CONSOLING YOURSELF, GET RID OF THOSE DOLLS, PURCHASE SOME PF FOR THE GREATER GOOD"

Going by all this lowbrow trolling, one has to wonder about the gap in intellect. Goes back to my post about lack of imagination in PF owners. "MUST TROLL... CAN NOT LET UM THINK I SMART.... UGH!"

People who buy for prestige are posers.

Either that or a strong feeling of insecurity.

 

[dvdwyn]

basically it all comes down on what you prefer:

HOTTOYS / EB pro:
- poseabilty
- great hs and details
- more choices, more character
- 1/4 and 1/6 availability (soon)
- doesn't break easily if falls to the floor
- you can play dolls fighting with your children using your imagination

HOTTOYS / EB con:
- small
- barbie dolls
- cheapskate looking although very expensive
- plastic rubber will breaks down in few years time
- ridiculuos price (oh well barbie dolls used to cost hundred bucks back in the days)
- more child collectors (age range starts at 10+)

Statue / PF pro:
- beautiful art / beautiful furniture like
- perfect size
- great details also
- some statue has better head sculpt than hottoys (ex indiana jones)
- reasonable price
- more grown up collectors (age range starts at 20+)
- simply captivating

Statue / PF con:
- heavy, handle with care, if it falls down it might break, dolls on the other hand you can throw around..
- some statue has worse sculpt than hottoys (ex godfather PF, rambo PF, etc)

please add some more if you will...
thanks..

blah2 comments and sculpts comments..
right on the dot baby..

Either that or a strong feeling of insecurity.

i definitely lack of imagination thats why i no more play dolls fighting with my children or friends.. i just like to drink my coffee in the morning while staring at my PF statues...

Q: should you responds to a troll?
A: no.

i guess i am not a troll yet.. people are still quoting my posts.. if you ignore a person who you thinks a troll on the other hand, shows you are really mature...

Trolling reported.... again.

 

[dvdwyn]

now that's what i called mature..

 

[jkno]

it doesnt have to be a giant PF, just a well made polystone statue, could be same scale as 1/6, get a dio/comq... They have some of the most amazing pieces.

There is a sense of satisfaction owning a detailed stone statue of your favorite character in a cool pose as you display it in your house, vs those silly hot toys with the stand holding up the doll. Hot toys are just that..cheap plastic toys no matter how nice the box looks. And the way they are pumping out those ironman and predators, on top of price gap with each release, the market is beginning to crash.

You do know that polystone is still a type of plastic, don't you? Is not granite or marble...
