Hot Toys Batman V. Superman Dawn of Justice Speculation Thread

[spindrift]

I hope to see first couple reveals in the next two weeks- bet WW and Aquaman reveals not until next year but all before movie's release.

I'm thinking Batman and Supes release next Summer, maybe earlier- they have had alot of time to work on these- filming took place in 2014!

Exactly. Just not worth wasting time trying to explain to the gallery. HT MoS inexplicably jumped to a different scale with the release. I don't know if HT was testing a new body or what. I mentioned Reeve only because of the height difference in the actors, so even taking the argument of it being the same character and therefore actor height being a non-issue there would be no reason for MoS to tower over '79 Superman. The only other time I'd gotten Hot Toys figure that was out of scale was the Rocky IV Ivan Drago, although that was far worse. I guess we will see when it comes out. If it is back in scale I'll probably sell the other. Anyway I make a simple statement about hoping the new figs are in the standard scale and the minutia starts. Just Part of being on the forum.

Remember people were making up all kinds of excuses for it being out of scale, saying this is 'the new scale' for HT moving forward

As long as all the members of the Justice League are in scale with each other, i'll be a happy bunny

So, exactly how tall are the HT Supes figures?

Wow up until those pictures I always said (having neither) that the WS Widow was the one I preferred over the AoU one but now that close up has my mind changed (though I still prefer the costume from TWS film). May just be the hair and the makeup paint apps but the AoU version looks like a different head all together.

That's A1 Widow. None of the HT Widows really look like ScarJo anyway. Maybe CW Widow will.

I hope HT fixes the cape on the next Supes fig. The Tony Mei cape and mod make a huge difference, at least to me, as illustrated in this Username pic...

...but it probably won't.

Have to say the ankles on Superman look terrible with his feet in the flying pose – i'll have to stand him up next to Batman I think.

Let's put it this way.

 

[Sidewinder]

As long as the figures from the same line are all in scale with one another, it really doesn't matter to me at all.

I have MoS Superman, but I wouldn't pose him with figures from this line because I don't tend to mix figures together from different films.

Figures are often out of scale. Sideshow's Hoth Luke was just as tall as the Hoth Han version and we know there's a considerable size difference between those characters on film.

The original HT TFA Cap is much smaller than AoU Cap and it's not like Chris Evans grew a few inches between films.

The different sizes are really not that noicable if they are displayed separately, which is fine for me.

Hot toys dun goofed and got that one backwards
Necas $100 1/4 reeve has better proportions IMO

 

[GasparZizou]

That doesn't answer my question doe.

 

[batfan08]

That doesn't answer my question doe.

According to their site, Reeve Superman is approximately 30 cm (11.81 inches), while Cavill Superman is approximately 31 cm (12.21 inches).

 

[GasparZizou]

Thanks Batfan.

Then Cavill Superman is closer to the actual height of Superman in 1/6th scale which would be 12.6" and Reeve Supes is the wrong scale.

 

[batfan08]

I just think it's weird to shift gears like that, what? 200 figures in?

 

[GasparZizou]

I think it's retarded that it took them 200 figures to start striving towards correct scaling.

 

[a-dev]

Time for a Reeve 2.0 so. I'm sure Hot Toys will be right on that ........... .....

 

[DiFabio]

Still can't believe they never made a Clark Kent version of him with the Superman shirt underneath. Seemed like a no brainer along with a telephone booth.

Wonder if we'll see Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent seeing as though they've made Bale Wayne, Keaton Wayne, Steve Rogers, Bruce Banner and Tony Stark.

That would be a great line full of variety and diverse characters! I love it!
