About 2 weeks I rewatched the PoTC movies and talked to someone about what a shame it was we’d likely never see a new 1/6 Jack Sparrow because of the Depp/Disney situation and how hard it is to find the DX15 at a good price, meaning I’d probably never get it.
And now here we are.
I would’ve liked to see a CoTB version too but a DMTNT version is fine as well. DX15 is still one of Hot Toys’s best so I can’t wait to see it what they have improved and added. I wonder if the sculpt will be new, hoping it is. The Black Pearl’s wheel is really nice, I always preferred it to the shark base.
Unfortunately, being an “Artisan” release means whether one gets this or not will be purely based on luck. Being overseas I’m not keen on ordering anything from Sideshow, let alone wait in a virtual line to get squat. So hopefully there’s a plastic hair version.
And I agree with everyone else here, a new Davy Jones is sorely needed, anything else would be a most welcomed surprise but Davy Jones is definitely at the top. Beast Kingdom released 1/8 figures of Jack and Davy not so long ago and Davy wasn’t licensed based on any movie, only the franchise.
So if they already have the franchise rights it would be a shame if they missed out on a new Davy, but it’s Hot Toys, stranger things have happened.
