A General Chat about Hot Toys

[robbiethepainter]

One can't help but be pissed off when one's entire pre-order list of figures gets delayed for more than six months

So, another figure with hardly any accessories

Catwoman clocks in with a pistol and nothing else.

I miss the T1000 and Blade days

Apart from a maid outfit, a prison outfit, a safe, a necklace and an alternate unmasked head sculpt, I'm really not sure what else they could've given her

Given how prices are these days though, I'm kind glad they didn't. Would've turned this into a $230-40 figure, and as much as I liked her in the movie she's not worth that kind of money to me.

Apart from a maid outfit

That would have improved sales a great deal

 

[Lejuan]

...and an airport couture Selina for a touch of class

 

[Eamon]

I think she is great and i agree that if we got more the price would go up and she's not enough of an icon to be spanding over the odds for in my opinion.


I got Enterbay Rambo for my birthday this week and I am utterly rocked by it.

You know you have a good woman when she suggests how to get all your figures into the cabinets.

After her suggestion, I can now have everything on display where as before I had to keep Arnie and Sly in their boxes in another room as they were too big.

How cool is this?? Delighted I am!!

Really liking how the Tron bike has it's own display now though I wonder where I am going to squeeze in the Avengers when they arrive.

 

[IronManny]

Wow! You make a crammed detolf look amazing! Thanks for the display ideas!

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Sam Flynn looks excellent Eamon

 

[tommyh84]

Great looking set-up you got there, bud!
But yeah... getting The Avengers in there will be difficult!

 

[Butters]

Very nice, Eamon!

 

[Bo Shrek]

Great display.
With the price of HT's these days affordability is something these figures are NOT. A way I limit my "Hot Toys" decisions on what to purchase is keep my "one" figure per shelf rule. I recently sold Sideshow Jedi Luke, Anakin, Mace and Qui Gonn to make room for future purchases. My list on what goes in my display is short: DX - T800, Returns Penguin, SS Vader, Returns Batman and Rocky (one day). If space get tight I will run out and buy another display case.

I really do like this idea for display and Im going to look into doing this, But I would need more than 5 detolfs to start out just to properly display what I have now.

I like that its raised up too, it gives each shelf, even the bottom, some room to shine.

I lost all interest in HT releases when they announced their '60s Batman line. Everything else is a distraction. All I want is my Ward & West next to my Reeves Superman. From there I'll go back to praying for a HT Carter Wonder Woman & George Reeve b&w Supeman

 

[Eamon]

Thanks guys! I appreciate that its' rather crowded. But it's either that or not have them on display or turn the sitting room into a museum.

That's a nice set up Rzeznikk! I like the idea of one figure per shelf but it's just not practicle.

A Carter Wonder Woman Hot Toy would be sweet!

Somehow I'm going find space for the Dynamic duo and the Batmobile, as for Lynda Carter Wonder Woman, yes please.

I think it depends on what the living conditions are in. I think it would really great in certain collections. Others, maybe not so much.

A great set up. What method did you use to adjust the shelves?
