Hot Toys 1/6 Tumbler/Batpod Batman

[creecher]

This is whats stated:

- Approximate product size: 65 x 18 x 17 cm ( Lx W x H)

It doesn't say box or packaging so i'd assume the actual Pod is this big.

That's for the Pod. The Pod's packaging is 75cm long x 28 x 27.

Batman is virtually horizontal with his arms stretched out, plus there's the tyre's and guns.

Yeah, it's long with those big ass wheels.

How many Tumblers left @ T2?

Thanks Bro. They could be gone tomorrow! That's if they don't add more Orders.

Man there can't be a more popular toy line than anything TDK related right now!

If they keep going at the rate they've been going, I would predict that they will sell out on Tuesday or Wednesday.

Somewhere in HK the president of Hot Toys is giving the green light for the $300+ Mark I and the $1000+ Bat Cave.

Have you measured 65 cm? Its HUGE dude.

hmm, indeed, that is very large

 

[Riko]

Is that for the box? I don' see the Batpod being twice as long as Batman.

it could be, take the wheels back and front, there is still huge space before and afther batman + take his guns on the front wheels sticking out... I think it could be right...

BigBadToyStore has dropped the price of their batmobile to 649.99. still too much though.

I'd say BBTS still needs to lower it alot more.

I have some news I will post on later about BBTS, I have mailed them with the question why their prices are so high...because I have seen tumblers on ebay for around 400 dollars and they mailed me back and asked me to show them some links to prove it...

now I am searching all ebay links for my reply

Shipping from the USA to Belgium will be more expensive than shipping from Hong Kong though. Don't forget to consider that even if they eventually lower their price.

Send them the Toys2.net link also. Along with the prices of their tumbler and figures, then BBTS will really see they have to do something.

On a side note apparently TDK Batman prototype on display at the Hot Toys store in HK does not feature a wired cape. Guess we'll have to come up with another way to get the flowing cape effect.

I mailed BBTS the following:

no problem at all, here are a few examples:

from ABC express:

even, less than 400 dollars, around 368 dollars
from goodshippedstore, :

and I might forgotten a few other ebay sellers based in hong kong, and china, and maybe a few in Japan. But these are the most famous and respected ebay sellers....
from just one popular board I can already see that those guys have lots of pre-orders already, the last few weeks + 100, maybe already around 200 pre-orders.


and I would very much reconsider buying from you if you have also the same kinda prices of course, because I can reserve without paying at front, that would be very cool and a step forward in comparison with those asian ebay seller where I would have to pay full at front...
But than you will have to change your prices, only then I will reserve one on BBTS and I will pay when you will ship the item...
but as said, I will only go with bbts if you will change your prices, they are not very attractive.
Because now I am considering to pré-order and pay full up front to one of those asian ebay sellers.

ps: are you an American or an Asian seller? (I could not find out on the site) and I would like to know how much shipping would cost for such an item to Europe, Belgium......

Shipping from the USA to Belgium will be more expensive than shipping from Hong Kong though. Don't forget to consider that even if they eventually lower their price.

I see, I tested by placing a preorder of the tumbler with shipping to belgium, to look how much it would cost, and it said 181 dollars...
BUT, I would still consider buying from BBTS if they got the price down to 360 dollars, just because they offer reservation without paying up front like all the asian ebay sellers.

+ maybe someone can already tell me where BBTS is operating from, I guess from the high shipping and the reservation option without paying up front, they are a American toy dealer?

 

[bumblebee]

yea BBTS is in the US.....WI I believe.

Yes they are based in America. Wisconsin I believe. Your best bet is to buy all three items together and save tons on shipping....downside is you'll need all that money upfront if you go through ebay. Can't you borrow some money from your parents or something? It'll be so much more money if you buy these things separately.
