A Teaser from Iconic Toys. . . Mr. Anderson?

[YankeesFanboy]

So Iconic's using the wordmark and the character's name and everything without the licensing, eh? Smooth, real smooth.

Will we ever see this figure go into production? Will it be pricey? And what of ThreeZero and the Matrix license?

 

[cmiller99]

Is there confirmation this is unlicensed? I'm just assuming.

I hope it makes it into production. I actually kinda hope this is a bootleg because the price would be lower

ThreeZero will probably take 10 years to make a Matrix figure. No time like the present.

Here we go.

Not a perfect line up but I think it's still pretty clear that both sculpts are very, very good.

Looks excellent. Definitely picking it up.

Probably. It wouldn't make much sense for two companies to be doing licensed figures for the same property at the same time.

I do too, if the final product winds up looking mostly like that.

We'll all be human batteries before we get a Neo figure from ThreeZero.

Iconic toys is working on the licensing, very long

Yeah, I'm done waiting on specific figures from Threezero. They move at a snail's pace. Much rather have an unlicensed figure now than wait years for an official one.

License or no....
Based on all the images so far
Bought!

 

[Platty]

This is definitely bought. For me the best neo sculpt ive seen. The expression is Keanu all over. For me this takes it over the blank iminime sculpt.

Someone mentioned earlier that Iconic Toys was trying to get the license for the film. So this might not actually be unlicensed.

Seeing as ThreeZero haven't mentioned anything about doing human characters and all we've seen is that unpainted Trinity head (assumption), there's no guarantee they've actually been able to get those likeness rights.

Nice to know they're trying as opposed to Threezero putting up anime junk. And no Walking Dead either.

 

[WhoaItsJBot]

Lol, no kidding. I'd be fine with them doing anime if it were Cowboy Bebop, not that nonsense.

They can't even release anything on time and they have the nerve to announce another figure

Licensing is the most difficult process in this business; Threezero wants to do walking dead obviously but again licensing issue

When did ThreeZero confirm the lack of TWD figs was a licensing issue?

No company will make that public to put licensor under the spot light, same goes to all toy manufacturers; besides that too many P&C issues. Why not put it this way, if it isn't licensing issue, why there hasn't been any announcement of human characters on TWD from Threezero?

It's already been said somewhere that 3Zero was focusing on making figures for their expiring licenses. Maybe they have time with tWD license to let them sit for a bit.

 

[Johnny Utah]

A moronic decision. Strike while the iron is hot or give the license to another player.

 

[WhoaItsJBot]

Exactly. Hopefully they lose the license so another company can get it and actually make some figures.

They're gonna mess around with Game of Thrones too, they'll lose the license before they get to characters people really want.

This is the only thing I have ever heard as well.

If it was a licensing issue, they could simply say they are still negotiating the license or likeness rights...then commence to releasing more zombies.

Neo is looking really good, if it gets made, I'll get one.

 

[WhoaItsJBot]

I hope they do Smith too. That'd be awesome
