So adorable! My first and only Marvel pre-order in 2 years
Yeah, Hot Toys must be trying to clear their slate with this sooner-than-expected releases, to give way for what's to be released in 2018 -- Justice League, Star Wars Ep VIII, and Avengers Infinity War. Not sure if they'd make multiple characters from the other movies though (Black Panther, Deapool --perhaps just Deadpool and Cable, Aquaman, Ant-Man and Wasp, forget about the X-men).
I'm hoping it's even better. Maybe they've just figured out how to pump these figures out faster. Maybe they hired more workers or have better machines at the factories. Whatever they're doing, I like it. So many figures lately either coming out really early or completely on time.

Oh, I wish I hadn't just dropped $490 on bloody comics!! I've been considering getting two to display in both normal and ravager gear, and I'm too impatient to wait for the eventually delayed AU release!

Got the email from sideshow saying it's been moved up too November or December of this year. We should be expecting an email soon with a notice. Cannot wait.

Really good video as usual.
The stand choice is a bit of head scratcher. But I think I may have a solution. 1/6 Groot's stand has the waist grabberon a pole that's adjustable for height.
I'm not actually using the stand for him, otherwise he doesn't stand upright in a Detolf.
The solution could be to simply switch the stands over as they both say 'Groot'. That's as long as there's an appropriate place for Baby Groot's stand to grab adult Groot! (Though that doesn't help with uniformity if you're displaying all the GOTG on their stands).
Oh, and just because you can't have enough Baby Groot...
Coming early?

No idea at this point, he was early in HK but still maybe 6-8 weeks before available in the USA unless they rush him out for christmas

Thanks man
Aw been looking at the reviews - this thing looks wonderful. I've got a feeling this little guy may end up getting reposed frequently. (Got the Awesome mix tapes already in preparation, but not yet sure what else will go with this little fella on the shelf)

Forget the collection shelf. This fella is made for every shelf in your home or office. Sitting on top your monitor. Fiddling in your pencil holder. Peeking from between some flowers on you kitchen table. Holding a bowl of m&m's on your coffee table.
The way the Hot Toys Deadpool can be posed with anything on your collection shelf this guy being life sized goes with any life sized object in your home.
Once this guy releases people will get creative for sure.
Hah! Excellent point!
I'm highly tempted to do that myself when he eventually shows up at the UK-pace, but I know most of the not-collection parts of the house aren't exactly collectable-friendly. (Thinking of nosedives to the floor) He would look amazing with the LP shelves though... Hrmm

Still wish he had an angry face, but happy to get him anyway.

Hopefully we'll see a third party one pop up soon.

You know what this set is missing? One of those talking keychain gimmicks where you press the button and it makes a sound. Having that on the stand with a variety of "I am Groot" would be poifect.
