A General Chat about Hot Toys

[Biojex]

The subtle tweaks to announced figures whiplash, war machine is welcome indeed.

yeah I love seeing HT improve upon something. It gives that little "Product shown is not final" message, so much more weight.

Great build up to comic con...plenty to talk about.

Can't wait for Ezio and the Mark VI. War Machine looks awesome too but I'm not if I'm going to be able to afford him.

Too bad there's nothing on the Terminator license or Jill Valentine.

The only one of these that looks like a home run so far is the Mark VI.

The other figures are nice but IMO are missing the ultra cool factor of Mark VI 2 in 1. Each figure has nitpicks but until official specs announced will let that pass.

Does anybody know of a good site that has extensive coverage of the toy show?

 

[Eamon]

I don't know what has been going on the last couple days but the it is raining Hot Toy figures.

 

[grphyx1]

Before it was kinda a challenge to get them, now they are sitting online for forever. I hit overload after IM Mark III and Marcus Wright. They're just so perfect it's like where do you go from there?

 

[Eamon]

Looking forward to the MJ pics Limit-NoN-Existent!

I'm sure there are gonna be guys quicker than me posting images but I will be sure to post photos here of the Hot Toys stand in San Diego.

HT is on fire

What the hell are the "Special Figs"?

When they pump out Spider-Man I hope he has good poseability... will be such a let down if the only pose that looks natural is pretty much stood up. I wanna be able to get some poses which are in character to him!

Also would have prefered Spider-Man 2 so that could get Doc Oc! At least Spider-Man's red and blue costume doesn't really change throughout the trilogy!

 

[Darkseed]

Hopefully we find out soon about the special IM figs. Just goes to show the pics floating around may not include everything at the convention.

I am disappointed in the Spiderman 3 selection because it was by far my least favorite Spidey film. I suppose Spiderman and Venom should be expected.

HT is on fire

Yeah, like bag of burning dog s__t!

Let's see:

Biohazard Afterlife: Video game figures. Well, they seem to sell well and they actually do more than one figure. So that is one reasonable licence out of six.

*The Expendables: will flop at the box office and get one figure, next year's Prince of Persia. Fail.

* Tron Legacy: another hyped remake of cult film that will fail, next year's Clash of the Titans. Fail.

* Avatar (Movie Masterpiece) - wasn't that your big announcement last year? Double fail.

* Spider-Man 3 - They choose the worst film of the main Marvel licences...the one where Medicom products have been lingering unsold from it for years due to fans abiding love. Keeps the Blade, Ghostrider, emo theme going though.

* Michael Jackson ver. Smooth Criminal - yields one figure, tops, of everybody's favouraite child-molesting wierdo. But he sells, so I have to give you that, two of six.
