THIS IS SPARTA!!!!!!!!!!!!! i am so fnnnn psyched for thi figure . i love the hell boy body . i dont care about total poseability . hell boy body looks soreal. i am ordering two
 
Leonidas won't have the oil problem of the DX Batman as this is a rubber body like Rambo, Rocky and Dutch. If I'm correctly informed (from reading the huge threads) the oil problem is somehow due to the mix of different rubbers which Leonidas doesn't have.

BTW, does anyone know when this guy will be in stock in Hong-Kong or China cause I'm not a fan of pre-orders??:confused:

AGREED. Not going through any more of that BS

I wanted to buy this figure but after Batman DX fiasco I'm not buying any more rubber figures:monkey4
 
New pics. From Toy World. Could have been from a toy show or something, not sure.

Yeah, but if anything Leonidas appears a bit short, since he's next to the MJ figure (which uses the slightly shorter slim TT). Maybe it's because his legs are a bit spread out.

T800 is standing up as straight as possible.
 
mmm...anybody else think that Leonidas could have more pain app to his body? It's nice but it looks like it needs more work or something.

Arnie does look very imposing which is great! :)
 
This or mech test should be next out yes? ..just going buy the way they show the close to release figures under more previews on there site ..i now see leo is not there but aldo instead ..could that mean anything ..or is that just reading into it a bit much?

They could stain him with blood in places maybe..
 
I just think it needs more shades and more definition.

Though maybe that's the problem with this material?
It can't take paint as they say to watch the paint on the neck on figures like Dutch. It rubs off evidentially.

Well considering Michael jackson was 5'10" and Gerard Butler is 6' 1", it's not that far off... Arnie on the other hand looks huge considering he is 6'0"

I think it's the flash photography...
I hope he looks as detailed as Wolverine...
 
Just checked out the Hot Toys site this morning and in the reviews section the pic of Leonidas has been replaced with Aldo. Could this mean that the release is very imminent?

On Sideshows website they say he will be released this month, but doesn't it take a month or so for figures to come from Hong Kong. This is a strange one, no one has in hand pics yet, very strange indeed.
 
So do most of you really believe this will be next out? ..this was announced b4 mech test tony right? ..damn i really need both of these figs in my collection ..we should see some inhand photos soon more then likely on ebay.
 
WOW. I'm surprised no one's mention that the sculpt is new. People usually pick up on that fairly quickly i.e. Aldo Raine. :lol

Nose is thicker, they got rid of all the lines around the eyes (which made him look older) they reduced the cheeks around the beard so no more chipmunk look and overall the face is rounder and fuller (like Gerard Butler's face). IMO it actually looks like King Leonidas from 300 now.
