Hot Toys Avatar: 1/6th scale Avatar Jake Sully Collectible Figure

[a-dev]

Watched Avatar last night for, I think, the third time. I dunno, I think its a great film. Original in every respect? No, but few things are.

I saw it three times at the cinema, third time was the extended IMAX 3D cut, which was the best.

Sideshow says Jake is shipping this month but I know they still have Bespin Luke listed as May while HT reportedly pushed it out until August.

Any similar delay already posted for Jake?

^ yeah, it's apparently June now

but they've only got one figure for release in May so something may be pushed forward, hopefully this

Yeah it is a great film. I was actually very suprised with its lack of awards at the oscars because Avatar had the whole "green peace" theme going on which is a very contemporary issue today with climate change and all that.

Nevermind, height looks good:

I watched it last night too, but for the millionth time.

Hate to say it but I believe that pic is a fake. Its not that big.

Wasn't this photo confirmed as being photoshoped? The Na'vi aren't that tall in the film.

 

[darthviper107]

Shouldn't be that big anyways

 

[Wulf]

I see...

 

[Wulf]

But shouldn't the figure be at least 50 cm???

Yeah, this is my original manip

The Na'vi aren't that tall in the film.

I believe they are

 

[darthviper107]

They're supposed to be like 9 feet tall

 

[RIDDICK]

They're supposed to be like 9 feet tall

Yep. Official generic na'vi height is ~9.85 feet.

I read 10 feet...? I remember in the movie how the humans only reached to the avatars stomach. The avatars were almost as tall as the AMP suit...

Indeed. They're big, but not that big.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

It's a fake, the creator should've labelled it as a fan manip

The photo (at the time) was an attempt by the person to show approximate heigh; but he was off in his attempt and admitted it. So no wool pulling involved

There are some shots from a later show that give a good idea of the figures relative height; but at 18" tall that would tranlate to about 9' in 1/6. So the figure might be a smidge short, but nothing to get too upset about.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Neytiri next to some Pandora creature?

 

[Wulf]

5 cm is a "smidge short"?
