Hot Toys– Hot Angel x- MMS 74- SHE PREDATOR - MACHIKO full spec and pics

[jkno]

Personally, I really wish they hadn't modelled it on Angelina Jolie - I am distinctly NOT a fan of hers - but I accept that I am very much in the minority there .

I'm not a big fan of hers either - my girlfriend is (LOL ), but still I will get this figure.

Maybe you should have a japanese women playing someone named MACHIKO NAGUCHI, just a thought.

Not that i would care for such a movie anyway.

True, though the figure doesn't look Japanese. And Japanese woman are usually on the small, frail side. I wonder what Machiko Naguchi translates into if anything.

I'd suggest checking out the history of Wing Chun if you think an oriental woman can't be an exceptional fighter.

Machiko in the novels and comics is portrayed as becoming a sort of female Bruce Lee figure - lightly built and agile, but extremely lean and strong for her size.

I can't believe you said "Oriental" when referring to a person instead of Asian. What is this 1943?

And your right Machiko in the comics was lightly built and agile, but extremely lean and strong for her size. I wish HT's had gone totally with that look rather than incorporating Lex into the figure.

"Asia" per se includes the Indian subcontinent, and Machiko does not appear to be of Indian descent, so it's a more accurate description IMO.

If you percieved it as derogatory, I'm sorry.

Where did I suggest a Japanese woman couldn't fight? I was talking strictly size for in a movie. I, for one, wouldn't want to see a female Bruce Lee in that role.

I know exactly what you're saying. No matter how skilled someone is at fighting....brute strength and size come into play at some point.

EDIT: and size

Brute strength and size?

Tell that to the 80 year old grandmother in Albuquerque who kicked a 20 year olds ass for trying to steal her purse at a gas station 2 weeks ago, lmao.
