Hot Toys – MMS255 – Guardians of the Galaxy: 1/6th scale Star-Lord Collectible Figure

[jayiw]

Someone needs to make 1/6 orbs. I want only an orb, no use for the handcuffs. A couple of Ebay overseas vendors have the Orb/Cuff sets for $27.99. But for anyone that just wants the orb $27.99 is insane.

I think those are knock offs

Yours isn't holding an orb? What's he holding in your pic?

It's the plasma orb. What I am referring to is the one that holds the Infinity Stone inside (the metal one).

 

[Lawrence]

Wait .....

What plasma orb?

Is there a plasma orb in the box?

Edit: I know about the EX orb with the handcuffs. Mine is displayed holding it.

 

[Brainiac]

Theres another orb, not technically an orb, just an orb shaped light he uses at the start of the movie, but it is called a plasma orb

Yep it comes with all the figures unlike the Infinity Stone Orb which is just with the EX ones. If you got a Starlord and didn't know it was there you may have missed it because it's mostly clear. Check the box contents again. It's actually a lot nicer then the Infinity Stone Orb IMO but no where near as iconic.

It comes with the figure? I thought I only left the Pratt sculpt, walkman, handcuffs, & some hands in the box.

Edit: Okay. Cheers. I'm going to check in the box.

 

[Nuka Cola Kidd]

Its in the plastic with the walkman.

 

[Lawrence]

Cheers guys. Yeah, I found it in the plastic tray with the walkman. I think because it's clear, & because I haven't taken the walkman out yet, I missed it

Bring on Rocket and Groot.

Has anybody contacted Sideshow regarding the flimsy helmet head? Not sure if it's an issue of the neck joint or the helmet sculpt itself. My only complaint with this figure.

what do you mean

apparently there is some issue with the head not fitting right.... a few people have been saying that.

 

[Nuka Cola Kidd]

Great pics Hologram.

Great pics Hologram.

Thanks!

what do you mean

The helmet sculpt is loose when attached to the figure. Saw it mentioned on FB quite a bit and I noticed it on my figure as well when I received it yesterday. Looks like it's a QC issue (big surprise) but I can't figure out if it's because of the neck joint in the body or if it's because of the neck joint on the helmet sculpt itself.

Yeah its pretty loose on the neck joint with mine too.

I was coming here to ask the same thing!

My masked headsculpt is very loose to the point where i can't get him to look straight without the head tilting downward. The Chris Pratt headsculpt is just fine though.

I just came to ask this same question, mine is fine if he's looking to the left or right, but straight on and his head will flop foward. Just the masked head though, super weird.

 

[Centrocal]

Is the ball joint too small for the socket on the body?

 

[The Rage]

I think the ball joint on the masked head is smaller than the ball joint on the unmasked head, I didn't have any calipers to check with last night when I was posing him.

I'm sure I sound like a broken record, but...

Holo you are one of the best at posing and photographing these figures!!!

The wait for me picking this up is killing me.

 

[Breadstickman]

Didn't have any issues with helmeted sculpt. Just panicked a little bit when I didn't find the batteries in the box. Been looking everywhere until I realized it's already installed in the HS!
Well, hope the people who got this HS issue get some kind of replacement from SS.
