Hot Toys - 1/6 The Mandalorian Cobb Vanth

[Spanbauer]

I'm more thrown by the teeth. Are those supposed to be his upper or lower teeth? They don't seem to be sculpted or placed right in his mouth at all.

They are his lower teeth and they look like the prototype to me.

I’m not upset that I passed on this one. Looks okay but not a must have and I’m burnt out on Mando at this point.

 

[Gipetto0812]

Looks almost exactly like the proto to me which I wasn't really wow'd by in the first place plus the price for what you get. Since he's not dead, maybe we'll see a newer version with a better sculpt down the line in maybe some of his own armor?

 

[Creighton]

Hes my favorite cosplayer but I just couldn't swing that price. Congrats to all who got Cobb.

I was thinking this earlier. He'd be more versatile if he weren't borrowing Boba's.

Two guys could turn up wearing the same dress and it'd be embarrassing. But two guys can't turn up literally wearing the same dress. It'd have to be a very big dress, and Boba was pushing it to its limits on his own.

Yeah, I thought the beard was ok. The teeth are definitely odd... I still think it'll look good on shelf, Bette Midler style (from a distance )

Yeah it's just weird that they're his lower teeth; in every reference pic where TO's mouth is partially open it's his upper teeth that can be seen.

I wasn't overly impressed with Yi Xie's sculpt when it was first shown, it looked like a Sideshow sculpt with better paint.

 

[davejames]

Yeah it's a typical sculpt for the Mando line-- something's always a bit off but it still works just well enough.

Bah! I challenge you to show me what's off in the Axe Wolves sculpt.



Seriously though, Koska Reeves is pretty much perfect and Fennec Shand (technically BoBF but still in the Mandoverse) isn't far behind. But everyone else? Yeah, not quite there.

 

[newapelles]

I think this might be the worst sculpt HT has put out this year.

 

[SpiderBat]

On the fence about keeping my pre-order for this. I basically just wanted a Timothy Olyphant figure but the sculpt isn't that strong.

 

[DCFett]

This looks better than I really thought. Held my nose and PO’d but I’m pleasantly surprised.

 

[noheddardstark]

I've always wanted a Seth Bullock figure and now I shall finally have one!

 

[Jaycepticon]

I think this might be the worst sculpt HT has put out this year.

That’s not really bad thing. I’ve gotten all the Mando/BoBF figures that’s come out in the past year, even Sam Wilson Cap, and I think they just set the bar extremely high.

I don’t see this as sculpt being a dud but yeah, just not 10/10 sculpts like the roll they’ve been on. I’d say this is a strong 8/8.5.

Yeah you're right there. Koska and Fennec were absolutely flawless.

Yeah no attempt was made on the shirt, which is disappointing.

 

[Mondragon]

If you wait till his Season 4 repairs he'll likely come with a set of critical assignment mod-arms, including the quickdraw action mod.

 

[The Buffinator]

I'm just guessing but that type of detailed shirt texture is probably difficult to achieve in 1/6 scale. As far as design compromises go that one doesn't bother me.
