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

[Edub]

Got my conversion today!! Now I don't have to wait several months to get that orb!!

 

[subzro]

Sideshow often lie about their waitlists, and then quickly 'find' stock when someone orders. There are numerous examples across this forum of that.
But not sure why the'd do it in this case, not like they need to drive orders up on this one.
Also, by the time this comes out in April/May 2015 (cause nothing is ever on schedule) it won't be the hot latest thing and there will be a big chunk of cancellations like any other release.

Why would they lie, I think they ordered X amount from HT and sold out of those, got on the phone today and ordered more. I have had more WL not convert than convert, i still have a couple things on WL that have been sitting for over a year

A year!?! Oye!

I am surprised the orb is an exclusive. I mean, it's not scene specific, it's

Spoiler

an important part of the plot

, and Hot Toys should have made it part of their regular release.

I know they will not convert but i want to see how long SS will let them sit in my account.

I do think it should have come with the regular but I can't say I'm surprised. The Aether was an EX piece with TDW Loki and that is also an infinity stone that plays a major role in the movie

Si!

Me too, I'm still waiting for that HT 1/4 Endoskeleton.... It's jot gonna happen. I just know it.

Do you think we'll see a re-release of the Infinity relics for future releases, or are people just SOL if they didn't pick up a HT Fury or Red Skull for the Tesseract ( I'm omitting Avengers Thor )?

I honestly don't know. It'd be cool if they did. I have the tesseract that came with thor, aether that comes with Loki and I'll have the orb when star-lord arrives but it'd be cool to get a set of them......hmm......I like this idea

Yeah i know.... as much as i LOVE the walkman and the headphones, I think that would have made more sense as an exclusive.

A middle finger swappable hand would have been nice as well.

It is a damn shame we aren't getting that.

I might have to make one of those

 

[preeny101]

Pre ordered based on how much I liked the film.

My waitlist for the exclusive converted today. They said they found one for my region which is Australia. Happy days!

 

[Ropen]

Is it just me or does Marvel likes to throw in characters that have light up functions just for Hot toys? I wonder if ronan will come up with a light up hammer.

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

Better question is will they make Ronan. My guess is no.

Juat found this... First thing I noticed is the maroon colored coat and why it is so loose and not form fitting like the one they showed on SDCC...

That has to do with the posing and how they didnt pull down the coat after attaching the belts. They just left it bunched together

First thing I noticed is how terrible that headsculpt is. I'm assuming that's just a placeholder, but still... yuck.
