Freaked Out
As awesome as this looks and the fact that I have to own it aside, I have to say if you are going to label such a release as “Artisan”, it really does need to have real leather details…
Doesn’t matter what HT priced it at; if it costs $700 to reliably get a copy due to HT’s distribution practices, it’s $700.It’s not $700 though.
me waiting for the PO to go up...somewhere.My wallet is feeling like one of those younglings, that’s for sure
I think since the only real difference compared to even a DX figure is just the rooted hair that a ton of characters wouldn't benefit from that so I only see this Artisan line being the most popular characters that will benefit from rooted hair.I would've got this if it had a normal release, but I'm definitely skipping it now. So are improved sculpts going to be exclusive to Artisan releases? If HT starts purposely half-assing sculpts for normal figures with a plan to improve the likeness with an Artisan release to get us to double dip, that'll make me drop them instantly.
Since the sculpted hair Joker was also so limited I had a bad feeling they'd start doing this with sculpted hair figures too, but I hope you're right. It's annoying since I would've liked to have this new sculpt and I don't care about the rooted hair, maybe they'll release another version in the future.I think since the only real difference compared to even a DX figure is just the rooted hair that a ton of characters wouldn't benefit from that so I only see this Artisan line being the most popular characters that will benefit from rooted hair.
Sculpted Joker is not limited, it's still available on sites that put up pre-orders for it, like amiami. It will be a wide release when it goes up on SS.Since the sculpted hair Joker was also so limited I had a bad feeling they'd start doing this with sculpted hair figures too, but I hope you're right.

Oh I guess I got confused, I thought that was also limited, thanks for the info. But now I'm still just annoyed that HT didn't make a new sculpted hair non-limited Anakin lol. There's no way I'm going to get this off ebay where a ton of these will end up.Sculpted Joker is not limited, it's still available on sites that put up pre-orders for it, like amiami.

Or the RotS Artisan Mace Windu, even more will pass on thatI wonder for how many people this has been such a turn off that it actually hurts HT is the long run?
I mean, no haired Anakin for so many, when the haired Obi-Wan shows up, many will just pass since they don't have the companion piece.

Maybe they will save it for the rots anniversaryActually it’s fixed with Qui Gon Jinn’s cloak. Pretty sure that’s what they used in the Kenobi 501st Clone promo shots. XD
Good luck to all who want this Anakin, I can feel I won’t get in line fast enough before he sells out in the first 1/1000 of a second.
It would be a shame for Hot Toys to develop this BRAND NEW, painstakingly accurate head sculpt only to be used on this low volume exclusive edition. Surely a cheaper to produce sculpted haired version won’t see the light of day after this one sells out, now that you got everyone hyped, right Hot Toys? *Wink wink*
