i don't think there will be a hawkeye 2.0. just not a popular enough character. but they did make a second widow so what do i know.
 
They did make 3 capt, 2 Thor so I have no doubt they will mill this license just the same. Btw where is Agent C ??!!

Mine arrived today. I payed the regular price from when it was released here, but it's a bit more then the regular price you guys pay from SS or BBTS, 'cause I live in Brazil and we pay some considerable taxes for toys and electronics. But anyways, it was a very good price considering other figures (The most cheap besides Red Skull and Noland from Predator). I gotta say, being my very first Hot Toy, i'm amazed. I almost didn't open the box. It arrived midday today, and I've just opened it (18:00).

Boy, it made me feel like a special customer. The box, the way they stored the figure. Holy ****, it blew me away. The Head Sculpt, all the details with its eyes, arm veins, muscles, clothing. My god, I'm still stunned... I've stored it in its box again, it's so perfect i'm afraid of posing it in my desk :lol

Great score! Congratulations.
And it's nice to see you hold it in such high esteem.
I hope you find somewhere you can safely store it.

It's hard to find detolfs here, so i'm gonna put my figures on my shelves. Is there any recomendation against them getting sunlight or stuff? Just for caution...

If you can, try and not have them in direct sunlight a lot of the time.
If that cannot be avoided, then it cannot be avoided. My detolfs face direct sunlight only for about half an hour or so per day, based on the direction my window faces. I am not too worried about them being sun bleached. If it happens, it happens. It will be a gradual thing anyway.
Enjoy your purchase. That's the main thing.
 
Do what you can especially in your parts of the planet as more uv tend to get through. From my newly gained expertise there is a reason why childrens car seat that are many times mostly made of plastic have an expiration date as heat and UV will take its tow on plastics. And then of cause colours will change or fade depending on what it is based on but you must have seen a poster or print in a storefront that faded over time. Sun is your enemy, aeh your plastic toys enemy :p

At this point I'd even consider an 80% as good Bootleg...... Those Wolverines from last year were nowhere near as good as the legit version, but still pretty good if you don't care how you get one..... (BTW I didnt buy one of those)
 
:yess :yess: :yess:

Also, I always meant to ask...this figure (like Bane) has ratcheted elbow joints, but HE's were ridiculously tight. I almost felt like if I tried to bend them too hard that they'd break. Did anyone else ever experience this?

My Hawkeye arrived last friday and I experienced the same thing you did :lol. His hands are a pain in the *** to change as well, those are some tight holes (that came out way too ****ographic, not my intention). And the arrows in the quiver almost gave me heart attacks :lol

There are some great bootlegs heads on Ebay. I am going to put together an "Attack on the Helicarrier" custom if i can't track down the official figure.
