I don't normally do prop replicas. That might be changing

A think a five pack would make a lot of people buy it.

It seems ideal to release these figures in one pack. I wonder the price, it has to be somewhat attractive of a price for people to care. I say $1,000 is way too high, I think we're looking at $700-$850.

If they did a five pack and it was $700 I would definitely buy it!

I'd cancel the Mark 42 and probably spiderman and those two would pay for majority of it. It'd be crazy to get 5 figures at once!! Something tells me $700 is NOT going to happen

Well they never made an Avengers box set. In fact I don't think they've ever included more than 2 figures in one box.

I could see it being $700 if it were as simple as putting the costumes on previously used bodies. I'd be happy with $850 or $900. My biggest worry is that the shipping will be high.

My guess is they're not confident that each character will sell solo so it makes sense. There was never any doubt about the Avengers.

A good scenario for everyone IMO would be

A Rocket/Groot 2-Pack
A Drax/Gamora 2-Pack
A Starlord solo release

A 5-Pack with all the characters and something exclusive.

Possibly in their team uniforms?? I'd buy that in a second

Well they do have TDK Armory set with Batman, Bruce Wayne and Alfred. Thats 3 figures and a display piece. But I find it hard to believe they would do a set with the first movie of a (possible) series that is untested. They don't know how in demand the figures will be. I think if they do anything like that they will put Rocket and Groot together then do separate sets where they keep adding on a character...then again maybe not

I hope Hot Toys get into releasing extra stuff like accessories and costumes as optional purchases, but I'm probably alone wanting that

I dont think this is gonna get a 5-pack to be honest, it seems incredibly unlikely, perhaps someone should revisit that original translation

Agreed. I think it was a picture as to how they are going to have the figures displayed. That line up has been scene in every trailer so its easily recognizable.

Yeah I mean they had that Vita Chamber Cap thingy but that was just a display

Yeah we really need someone to do a translation

There was also the Bifrost setup with the Thor figures.

I think if HT were ever to do a 5-pack of anything it'd be Iron Man related as 5 of the repaint armors can easily be made using existing molds.

That said, multiple releases would definitely make economic sense for Rocket, Groot and Drax because they're such unique body molds that can only be reused in the future if the characters make another appearance either in a Guardians sequel, another Marvel Cosmic movie or assisting the Avengers against Thanos which is something I'd like to happen as I want Rocket and Tony to have a bit of banter.
