Remember that Jurassic Park line?
"Is it heavy? Then its expensive put them down"
For me its about the money we pay for these things, this is not cheap, so when I tap it I don't want it to sound like its plastic. I know its not realistic for this to be made out of Polystone, but still I want some weight to it.
Its like Thor's hammer, I could never buy a plastic one with little weight to it, heaps on the market right? A decent one sets you back over $1,000, nice and heavy. Thats what I would imagine this to be, otherwise why didn't we just buy the NECA one and save $400.
I have the eFX Mjolnir and that's one of my favourite pieces in my collection, but I would never want to hold that piece for prolonged periods, as my arm would fall off. I also have a plastic version and that's a piece of junk in comparison, but it was also substantially cheaper.
The same can't be said for this gauntlet.
For people who primarily collect Hot Toys, issues of weight usually doesn't come up, except for the Iron Man line for some reason.
