Hot Toys DX04 - Enter the Dragon: Bruce Lee 1/6th scale Collectible Figure

[koolkollectibleskhai]

Yep, it was this one: https://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/showthread.php?t=106465

Just a headless body.




I carefully wrap the metal part of the stand around the waist then slide it into the base. After that, there is a bit of careful adjusting. I got the snap back on the sash after removing the shorts. It took a long time to get it snapped together. I'm never removing those pants again.

Yep, I made the mistake of taking off those pants, and it took forever for me to tie the ankle straps in a decent manner!!! And then the waist strap took me forever to align right so that I could see all three scratches on his abdomen!! Plus wrapping it tightly enough to allow the snap to hold! I still dont think it's snapped in too well, as a gentle touch normally dislodges it.

I'll try your technique to get this into the stand. Thanks!

There's two DX06 editions. One is the standard, and one is the special with the long telescope. Not a big deal, but the long telescope does look cool.

I wasn't aware of that so thanks for the info!

WTF???? I could care less about Bill and the various assorted sycophants -- it's only the figures I'm interested in.

And you felt the need to post this in the HT thread because???????

posting etiquette lecture!! FROM YOU!!

I got the pants loose so tying everything was always going to have to be done. I'm surprised HT didn't give step by step instructions for those, considering we might want to dress the spare body.

Toy-People.com interview with Enterbay Bill

Unfortunately I cannot read enough Chinese to translate;P

 

[Rogerbee]

Where you can't Google Translate can, I'll have a read later.

 

[COSMOSTARX]

Yeah but a lot of meaning is lost in translation because they are Cantonese speakers.

 

[Rogerbee]

Yeah, I guess, but you get the gist. One thing that does seem clear is that future 1/6 Bruce Lees will be Black Label statues, not figures.

Everyone looks so young! YJ looks 12!

 

[mrchris]

looks like the black label 1/6 bruce is out this month..some new pics please EB.before i part with my hard earned cash.(but you know me,i'll end up buying it!!)

One thing that does seem clear is that future 1/6 Bruce Lees will be Black Label statues, not figures.

I didn't take that away from it - I inferred that Bruce Lee will be among the line of Black Label statues, not that all future Bruce Lees will be statues and not figures. What part of the interview are you referring to, I may have missed it?

 

[Rogerbee]

Well, no mention was made of Bruce as figures. You read the same bit I did.

To answer Chris, I think the screaming Big Boss head might well be the statue.

 

[mrchris]

MM.i thought Big Boss was a 1/6 figure (RM)..perhaps i read it wrong on previous posts.anyway as long as its a good un.dont mind

 

[Rogerbee]

Well, we see pics of a 1/6 Bruce Lee and all Bill mentions regarding him is Black Label. Draw what conclusions you will....

(Shouldn't we be talking about this in the general thread!?)

I got my extra stand to complete my second Bruce Lee:

I couldn't figure out anything to do with the sneaking suit top, so I just let it hang since I'm not too concerned with movie accuracy.

Another shot:

 

[Tonymontana]

2 Bruce's ? Wow nice

 

[BadMuthaDude]

I bought an extra body and stand to make use of the extra head and outfit. It was worth it for this awesome figure.

 

[dominishin]

No more Bruce? Then I guess their "advanced" Bruce Lee body is not in the works anymore?

 

[Lejuan]

Seems to be the case, with EB having exclusive rights over the likeness. Howard pretty much confirmed it in an interview I read a short while back, but I can't recall where this was.

 

[Lawrence]

Yeah I read something like that. I think HT said that they actually already have another BL head sculpt, unreleased. But EB have the rights, so I guess they have to sit on it. I think HT did say something along the lines of "licenses don't last forever".

You read and assumed too much. Id suggest you not to say these things as things like these catch too much attention and set forth rumours.

If you have been observant enough the Black Label BL sculpt had been shown here long back. And has NOTHING to do with the RM BL's we will get. Black Label is abbreviated as (BL) in the intervuew nothing to do with Bruce Lee
The RM 1/6 Big Boss was always teased as a figure ever since Bill's posting that he wanted to make the figure happen

Please dont create unwarranted panic... you think its even logically or remotely sound that EB would get exclusive rights to BL ONLY to make a 1/4 figure and 1/6 statue.
