basically alot of chinese fans are angry at hot toys with the way they distributed the toy fair exclusive items at ani-com and want hot toys to make more. alot of people missed out on the figures even though they queued overnight because of scalpers buying like 20 figures to sell for higher price.

Well ..what i have on pre-order at the mo is ..T1000,T1000 as Sarah,MIV and Whiplash ..figs i will be buying once available ..berserker,DX04 Bruce(if all the problems are sorted out),Ghostrider and possibly landa ..
Figure from new licenses i want, from the spiderman 3 license ..just a spiderman(classic look) and i'm really interested in an Alice figure from the resident evil films ..there going to make all 4 Alice figures from each movie and each one will look awesome ..if i can manage it i will try and get them all ..due to this i have no interest in Abigael anymore ..but if i ever see her cheap who knows i may pic her up.
Also..if what people are saying is true and that a classic pred with new body is on the way i will sell of my p1 for sure in favor of that.
...and as regards assassins creed..i will wait for an Altair or master assassin Ezio.
Also hoping for a new sparrow from the new movie or one from the original.

I just don't know why Hot Toys didn't place a purchase limit on each exclusive figure at the their booth. May have prevented the negative backlash they received.

So what unannounced, but highly probable, figures are you guys hoping to get next year?
I'm hoping/planning to get an On Stranger Tides Jack Sparrow, Blackbeard and Thor, from the Thor film!
Classic Predator, Tracker Predator, The Destroyer.
What were the Toy Fair Exclusives, by the way?

The Destroyer and Celestials are the only thing that I ever really liked about the Thor comics.

Can anybody help me with trader reviews and such on these boards?
I've had one good experience here already and may be doing a second but would like to know what folks do about checking the credibility of someone who's gonna sell you something.

Sadly no! But I though my signature was too specific so I changed it.
I have just sold a load of stuff on ebay so I can get some Hot Toys.
Some rare, comics, a light saber, some posters and stuff now affords me two Hot Toys.
So I think thems have to be Perseus and Abigail.
But there that ED209! hmmmm!!
Sold a light saber eh? what one did you sell? ..i got the Anakin anh saber ..but i won't let myself sell that, its just a cool thing to show off when people come over. Would love to get a dooku or ventress saber but all the hot toys make it difficult to getting round to paying for one of them
. ..really Perseus? ..i will hold out and hope hot toys get the god of war license and that will cover my collection for Greek mythology.

I cant even remember when i started getting HT figures. I think it may have been when the Aliens figures came out i got Hicks and then started collecting more and more.
Unfortunately some hard times came along and i sold a large portion of what i had which left me with a few figures but slowly ive been building up a collection again. Ive got many a figure from many a range i collect a lot of stuff and sink my money into most of it.
At the moment though my main purchases are Hot Toys and MOTUC, ive got a lot of Hot Toys on pre-order at the moment including Battle Damaged Iron Man Mk3, Test Flight Tony Stark, T-800, Sarah Connor, Jill Valentine, T-1000, T-1000 Sarah Connor Disguise, Berserker Predator and probably a bunch more that Hot Toys throw at me.
Ive recently purchased a Lost Predator, Battle Damaged T-800 Endoskeleton and a Superman Returns Jor-El figure...since a few of the preorders mentioned above are due into my local store this week im going to have to hold off on them for a couple of weeks at least.
Sometimes my money just vanishes and a new toy arrives...its very scary how much i seem to be sinking into this obsession!
