Hasn't there already been a bunch of Bruce Lee releases from other companies who did fabulous work? Why the hell did HT even tackle this one? Enterbay's stuff looks great as it is. We don't need more Lee's!

Late to the announcement as usual....talk about out of left field.

I agree with the comments about the body and BD sculpt, but I'm confident they'll see some revision. Now I just have to decide if I want to keep my EB 1/4 scale Bruce or cancel it for this. I really only have room for one

That's so silly. That's like saying Apple shouldn't have made a smartphone because we already had them.

Plus I'm sure there are plenty of Hot Toys fans who don't even know Enterbay exists.

Because a Bruce Lee figure is more bankable, especially for his 70th Anniversary. Also, just because one company does a product well, it doesn't mean that all other companies shouldn't try. Like I keep saying: more choices is ALWAYS better for the consumer, monopoly on any certain market is NEVER healthy in the long run.

Look at the 1/6 WWII market, they are even worst. There like a dozen different 101 or 82nd airborne figures and not to mention, various Nazi figures in the market. People still buy them, because companies like one up to each other.

Body is a joke.
Reg sculpt is good, not great.
BD sculpt pretty off in places.

EB wins. PASS.

Sculpt is off. Thanks HT for saving me some $$$.

Hooray now I don't have to pay crazy-over-the-top prices for a EB Bruce Lee!
Eh.. the body sculpt looks so tense, would look nicer if he was more relaxed. EB Donnie Yen vs. HT Bruce Lee ^^

I have the same dilemma, recently pre-ordered the 1/4 EB Bruce but am thinking of canceling and buying the DX04.

I dunno. Evibay listings has it in the $250 range before shipping. I have Enterbay GOD v1 for sale at $260 in sale thread (shameless plug).

How many of these do you think they will make?

Am I the only one blown away by this thing then. Not a disappointment at all for me. In fact i'm going to buy it!

I'm looking at it without reeves tinted glasses on

Is their a secret dictator on this board that demands everyone here jump on the Superman bandwagon? I obviously missed the memo. I have never seen such a fandom where the majority desires the same thing. It's very odd, that so many craves the likeness of a particular individual. Anyone ever heard of the groupthink theory? Seems it's very relevant on this board....

It's ridiculous to see grown ass men, carry on in such a way. It's really pathetic & shows large amounts of selfishness towards HT global enthusiant.

Pretty unexpected!!! @ all the fuzz...

Anyway, overall Enterbay's definitely looks much better... specially the body... but great accessories.

IMO a few Pros and Cons vs. Enterbay's (most of them already mentioned...)


Pros:
- Accesories
- Backdrops and base
- Outfits


Cons:
- The body... seriously... WTH HT?
- The face looks a bit off, specially the non-calm one...
- The eyes look too caucasian... which is ironic considering a lot of people complaining about some HT caucasian or african-american figures looking asian...

Overall, a really nice figure,
Color me interested! ETD is my favorite BL movie and I missed out on EB release... this is a more affordable version, but I honestly think Enterbay's figure look much, much better thant HT's...

I guess the score so far is HT: 1 (Godfather) - EB: 1 (Bruce Lee)...

Is it just me or does Bruce look like he went into a tanning bed with just his sleeves on?

Haha...i just spent 20 minutes reading through this posting....HT is trying to capitalize on BL in the market that ETB had cornered. They got everyone on here all amped up (Good and Bad)...so i say they have accomplished what they set out to do.
