:lol

I collect fashion dolls so if these are similar but look more realistic, I might be interested. Just as long as they don't look creepy. :lol

Plus if they do some Hollywood starlets that I like it would be hard to pass them up. :)

That's cool :lol. But still, the fact that Enterbay is marketing this figure line to male customers, is weirding me out...
 
You know what? This line would be pretty successful if they did the leading ladies from all of the big action films.

Imagine an Enterbay:
Natalie Portman for your SW/Thor line
Gwyneth Paltrow for your IM line
Emma Stone for your Spidey line
January Jones for your X-Men line
Hayley Atwell for your Captain America line

etc...

They won't be doing any of that though. Because if Enterbay had the Thor license they'd be doing THOR.
 
Well what I meant is they can release one that looks just like Natalie Portman that people could use with their Hot Toys Thor figure if they wanted. :)

Kind of like figures that you could use with other lines if you wanted?
 
Yeah, Enterbay doesn't have the license for many of those franchises. They'll most likely use obscure models or various Asian actresses who don't require royalties to use their faces.

I do see your point, but again I think it's doubtful because I'm thinking if they will go so far as attach the Asian actress' actual name to one project, they can't with the next one, really just go and make Natalie Portman and call her "Sexy Girl Natalia Shwartzman" and expect to not be called out by Natalie's reps.

It's likely that we will see some American actresses but there will be little chance they will fit in with anything we might really need...

For example I can't see Angelina Jolie attaching herself to a sexy girls doll project, or Kate Becknsale or Natalie Portman. About three of the only reputable and sexy hollywood actresses involved in an array of geek type films.

Then you get the others like the aforementioned Signorine Weavers who are just not sexy and modern enough for a line like this. Then someone like Blake lively who would probably scoff at it either way.

You might get Maxim girl flavor of the month type person like Amber Heard or whatever to agree, but there's nothing really credible to create with those types of actresses' likeness in the sci-fi or action realm.

What I think Enterbay should have done which relates to your point and i think would have been a great idea is to release a line of new female bodies, different shapes, sizes colors with random outfits (that are usable, not just sexy schoolgirl) and actually make the likenesses of Angelina Jolie and Portman etc. but just call them FMX-01. or something.

Oh well... at least we will get some new female bodies on the market and hopefully they will be good. IMO the female body in 1/6 is way behind the men's in terms of being up to speed.
 
Just because they aren't offering a 55 year-old Sigourney Weaver doesn't invalidate their attempt to offer something slightly different.

But this is why companies don't step out of the pageant queen box. It seems to be not what the majority of action figure fanboys want. So I applaud any company brave enough to attempt it. Good luck to 'em.

What I would like to see is a more European take on female beauty. How about Audrey Tautou or Tilda Swinton? Now THAT would be good. Wouldn't sell, but it would be good.

Yeah. It will be interesting to see who they can get likeness rights to.

:goodpost:

It'll be a brilliant concept and line if EB did some females from movies like Uma from Kill Bill, Resident Evil Alice from previous films or even the Sucker Punch girls!
