See, i like Leonidas more then Perseus but, this figure is much better then the Leonidas IMO.

May get it, though i am not digging his sword and shield.

I prefer what they have done with Perseus' joints. Looks great and easier to pose than the rubber skin.

Makes me wonder what they are going to do with the Avatar figs.

If that. Comic-con hasn't traditionally been a big event for Hot Toys to debut things. They'll release them when they are ready.

Figure looks pretty good to me. I saw the movie today and enjoyed it. I don't understand all the hatred for it.

anyway - He really needs the other sword both extended and not. That was important at the end of the film. I can live without a second screaming head, but he really needs the other sword.

I'll tell you why the middle-aged critical Cassandras remember the 1981 version as a movie milestone: because when they first saw it, they were 11. Not that it didn't boast its antique charms, mostly in Harryhausen's nifty-creaky beasties, but these scenes consume perhaps 15 mins. of a two-hr. movie. The rest is a botch, as storytelling or spectacle. First we're up on Olympus in the company of some swank Brit actors — Laurence Olivier as Zeus, Claire Bloom as Hera, Maggie Smith as Thetis — whose contempt for the material, and for themselves for taking this rich but demeaning payday, deprives their readings of either the sizzle of high drama or the florid flounce of high camp. Then we're on earth, in Argos, where the half-god Perseus, Zeus' ******* son, is incarnated by Harry Hamlin with a pouty air and the look of a Muscle Beach Andy Samberg. Under director Desmond Davis, the live-action scenes are stately, starchy, suffocating.

Re: Hot Toys– Clash of the Titans: Perseus Spec and pics

The film is a sham, with good actors going for the paycheck and using beards and heavy makeup to hide their shame. For that Avatar feeling, there's Sam Worthington as Perseus, the ******* son of a human mother and the god Zeus (Liam Neeson at his most bombastic). Zeus's brother Hades (Ralph Fiennes channeling Lord Voldemort) wants to declare war on humans. Perseus must save the day by fighting the Medussa, a head with a giant tail, and laying waste to the Kraken, a sea monster who is actually another head with a giant tail. Staring at the Medussa can turn you to stone. The godawful dialogue did it for me. Neeson roaring, "release the Kraken" belongs in the camp time capsule. It will haunt him for years.

Agreed. Everybody's got an opinion...

I don't see where it looks bad. Most people have two different size eyes.

Never said it looked bad Just pointing out the obvious to me at least and most people do not have two different sized eyes. If they did they would look like this.........

I still haven't seen the movie and will probably wait till it hits Blu due to the mixed reviews but that is a damn nice looking figure.

I don't understand why HT are using jointed arms on one figure and rubber bodies on the next? I personally don't like Perseus's exposed joints. I know people hate the rubber body but Leo looks amazing.

It's because of this:

And the assumption that the majority of people who buy the figure will want to display it exactly like that at some point (for an extended period of time). Which would be a problem for any rubber body including the new Leonidas one. Even the booklet included with rubber body figures state not to keep the arms in that type of position and definitely not for long periods because it could damage the material of the body.

Re: Hot Toys– Clash of the Titans: Perseus Spec and pics

How about one plastic jointed arm?! The rest rubber?
I know that sounds crazy. But I'd rather it. Hate the joints.

Also his shoulders are covered he could have traditional joints there which would not strain or stress the rubber.

They could still do rubber elbows while using exposed joints for the shoulders, no?
