Re: Article: 1/6 Hot Toys - Guardians of The Galaxy - Backstage Pass
I think a box set for multiple characters is out of HT's strategy, but you never know. It would be a great way to get folks to plunk down a whole bunch of money at once is long as collectors got a tidy break on the cost per figure. For HT it could be a great way to help sell-through B-string characters they might not be sure about (such as Faora or Sif). I could see that working for several lines like Thor (Sif & Heimdall, The Warriors Three), BTTF (Doc & Marty 80s pack, Future pack, Western pack), Avengers AoU, X-Men (70s team, future team, DoFP, X2), Batman & Robin, etc. From a collectors standpoint these would probably go up nicely in value especially if they came with exclusives. If HT does do a GotG box set they should let folks know it's coming in advance. Nothing would burn me up more than buying a couple of individual figs and then HT goes "ta-da! here's comes the exclusive box set with extra bling bling and stuff."
