1/6 Hot Toys Avengers: Endgame - Armored Thanos

[dukefett]

Since it's still up for pre-order if they were going to add it, wouldn't they update the product page? Seems silly to not get additional pre-orders and just surprise everyone out of the kindness of their heart. I'd love the extra accessory but wouldn't display it with Thanos anyway.

I'm trying to think of other examples but for the HC Spider-Man they added the instant kill eyes that weren't in the promo photos or announced previously at all. I do think they'd send an update for this if they added something as big as the Gauntlet. They sent updates about the Hulkbuster when they changed things to fit the Mk 43 for instance. I'm sure there's other examples I don't know about out there.

I can think of small things they have tossed in but nothing the size of the Gauntlet. I can think of more examples of them making a second figure for things that easily could have been included with the 1st like a sith head for Anakin or a spear and a second head for armored Batman, etc

What if HT split the difference and included a snapping hand?

Maybe they'll just throw a bone to the secondary market to make it for those that want it ??

Then that would go right from the box onto my IW Thanos.

I'm sure a lot of collectors will buy the regular armored Thanos and have him set up with just the power stone lit up, to replicate the opening scene from Infinity War....

Just as expected they didn't fix the ugly exposed neck joint.

Does this mean it's actually tracking to release on schedule? I don't remember the exact target date, but seems it was early in 2020...

 

[otheradam]

Isn't that the first prototype though? Do they ever put out updated prototypes?

I think it's something like Jan-March. Whatever time frame they give, figures always ship in the last month. So expect it around March-earl April.

Hmm...so no regular/non-gauntlet left hand option then?

That might be a deal breaker for me as I want a movie accurate Endgame Thanos. I sure hope they keep the non-gauntlet left hand option...

As I mentioned a few posts back in this thread, if you go to page 1 of the hot toys Avengers Endgame Thor thread, you'll see a picture of the Endgame armored Thanos with the non gauntlet left hand, and also a picture of the battle damaged armored Thanos with the Nano gauntlet.....

Here is another problem..
To use the left hand without (any) Gauntlet, you would also need his left forearm armor part - which was not shown anywhere so far..

The hot toys Avengers Endgame armored Thanos does in fact have the left forearm armor in one of the pictures I mentioned in my previous post....

 

[kyekye]

You remember correctly - there are regular left hands, but they didn't show a regular left forearm guard. I'll be amazed if it's actually overlooked when this is released.

Agreed however I feel like in most cases people, like me, will display him head on so you won't even really see this anyway.

I hope this guys is released soon. Takes so long from movie to pre order to FINALLY getting it years later!

I doubt he'll ship before March; just 3-4 more months.
