A General Chat about Hot Toys

[Eamon]

Yes I have BD MIII and Blade alright.
Though even I hadn't Bladem Abigail is where it's at.
mmm...some food for thought there lads alright.
So you guys think the Mark IV will not be a massive seller?
I do want all versions of Iron Man but if he's not gonna sell out fast then I may bump him down the list.

I mean I plan on getting all of the above but I gotta priortise in case I canot affford them all or whatever. T1000 and Abigail are the must haves.

Which of the list are gonna be out by August 29th do you think?

Personally I'm waiting for the Mark VI... I think other people may be waiting too since that's his final look. Even though the Mark IV looks cool I won't be buying it. Mark V is possible. War Machine definite.

 

[GrayWolf87]

I've got the mk IV on order because I prefer it to the mk VI. But quite a few seem to be waiting to see what the mk VI looks like before commiting. Your call really. If your planning on getting them all suppose it just depends on which ever you want the most.

Most exciting option though would be to just get her to suprise you!

 

[Eamon]

Coolness guys thanks!

I shall go forth and order me some liquid metal love!!

Will we have all these by end of august do you think?

 

[karamazov80]

Well I sold my extra 12" Peter Venkman so I can now afford to prerorder one of the following, Iron Man MIV, Whiplash, Abigail, T1000, Perseus or Danstan.

^^^ No debate, particularly if you already have an Iron Man.

 

[GrayWolf87]

I'm no good with release dates so couldn't say

I haven't got Blade, not planning to pick him up either, but I PO'd Abigail. The figure just looks too damn awesome to pass up IMO.

I'm not sure we'll see any of these before August 29th... Maybe the Mk IV but that's it...
Would be cool though if Abi would be released around that time.

Not a big fan of Abigail... love Biel but somethings off with the figure for me. Plus I don't think the film was nearly good enough to warrant a high end collectible, but I feel the same way about a lot of HT choices.

I haven't really liked any of HT females yet though to be honest.

True that,but Abigale is pretty awesome looking imo..
They should serious consider making a kate bekinsale as Seline from underworld ..man that would be awesome,and she would look way more awesome next to blade then Abigale imo,even with them being from two different films. +she would bring loads of cool weapons and accessories just like blade did.

My most wanted female character.

 

[hunnipot85]

I prefer Black Widow over Abigail, I like them both but I will most likely only be getting Widow unless Abigails in hand pics are great.

 

[Darkseed]

I'm no good with release dates so couldn't say

3rd Q (July - Sept).

Assuming HT makes the release dates 3rd Q will be busy. I am at work therefore, I cannot confirm the release dates. However, I believe most listed below will be 3rd Q release unless otherwise stated:

Marvel
War Machine
Whiplash
Mark IV
Abigail Whistler
Black Widow (3rd or 4th Q I cannot recall)

T2
T1000 - Sarah Connor (is it available for pickup at Toy Fair in July?)
T1000

Prince of Persia
Prince Danstan - 4th Q

Predator
Predator - (is it available for pickup at Toy Fair in July?)

I cannot image what 4th Q holds if these hit in the 3rd Q

I have a question on the hot toys figure with rooted hair (Silken Floss, Black Widow). Are the heads soft? Like are they soft like say a barbie doll because of the rooted hair?

 

[hunnipot85]

No, they aren't soft.

 

[Eamon]

Well, after yesterday's fiasco, I did manage to score a Guardian Predator and I am flippen delighted.
It was the very last one too!
Crom finally heard my prayers.

I only have P1, P2 and Lost P so this will be seriously awesome addition. My first Hot Toys Exclusive too.

Would still donate vital parts of my anatomy to own a Elder Predator though!

Very nice

If I was to get more preds after the P1, it would be ones from P2! But with the price of Elder and P2, and now the exclusive guardian, its a line I wont attempt to pick up. But atleast I have THE Predator!

Thats going to make for a very nice display!

Now get your arse in gear and make a damn trohpy wall

 

[Eamon]

Thanks dudes!

Oh yeah, If you are gonna have one Predator, P1 one is the one to have.
I stubled across a P2 here from a fellow member and a client sent me the Lost Predator.
I don't like the AVP Predators that much. Crap films and they are too bulky looking I think.

I say we sit back and see what the new Predators movie stuff is like. Should be sweet I reckon and I just hope the movie is good too.

 

[GrayWolf87]

I'm hoping for a good movie more than good figures! I don't want any more predators, because for me, I feel that Predator has so much more presence in my collection by being the one and only!

With the new figures from the film, what I may do is if the bodies are bigger... I may buy a loose body and swap it out so that the pred is a better height. Providing that the bodies aren't too big! If its one that will need repainting then will try and get SilentSurfer to work his magic or something!

If though however the bodies are the same then I'm more than happy with the predator as it is. The only mod I have done was heat the dreds and I've never wanted to do any more to it!

Its a damn sturdy figure as well!

 

[Eamon]

Why heat the dreads? To make em longer?
