I think we're going to see these bundled as the whole group with tons of extras. Think I'm going to hold off ordering the 2-pack until we see all of the figures. I thought Rocket would come with another headsculpt but that will probably be part of the "Team Bundle", with alternate prison and Guardian outfits.

technically not MMS 254

It's officially labeled as MMS 254 so yes, it is.

Eesh. 200 for something as small as Rocket. Not even Black Widow or Hawkeye is that much. XD

Re: Hot Toys Screaming Tree Guy and Rodent.

I'm sure I'm the only one but I have zero interest in the movie or the figures. Haven't read any of the books and a tree guy with his rodent pal (along with their other cohorts) seems really corny to me. I have no intent on watching this movie and the trailers don't look like anything special even if it's made by the Marvel Studios hype train.

Heresy! Careful you will get stoned by all the newbs trying to build up their HT collections.

If they do a group set...I really would love team uniforms though

I can see that happening. Perhaps the Team bundle set will have prisoner outfits for the entire team. Rocket also looks like he has a different gun for the prison and Star Lord also has a different weapon.

I hope they don't sell them as the set or at least an extremely limited set until after the movie. I would love the full set but really don't know about all the characters until I see the film. I would have to be blown away by the film and characters to invest in what will surely be a very expensive set.

With Rocket being a cheaper figure than the rest, I bet they'll squeeze out another version to cash out on him.

Considering he had a newly developed body, with new tooling created just for him, that's a very reasonable thing for HT to do IMO. Gotta recoup those costs.

In the dumpster with Prometheus.

The backstage pass pic showed the prison outfit for Rocket so I don't think we're even close to seeing everything they're going to release. Not sure how I'm going to afford $1000+ for the team but I'm sure it's the only way we'll be able to get certain sculpts, outfits, weapons etc.

Same here I wouldn't be interested in it if they are wearing their prison uniforms though. But if they have team uniforms...

Re: Hot Toys - MMS 252 - Guardians of the Galaxy - Rocket

I noticed this as well. Because what's odd is that they made the 2 pack come with a second screaming Groot sculpt but they didn't give one to Rocket when he has a screaming sculpt as well based off the movie and promos. The teaser also shows that they have the prisoner outfit in the works.
With Rocket being a cheaper figure than the rest, I bet they'll squeeze out another version to cash out on him.

Couple of possibilities here, HT seems to be slowly getting into the "accessories" market especially with the recent Iron Man 3 battery tease, it could be that Prisoner outfits are another foray into those waters, or that it comes with the 5 pack if that actually materializes.

Many outlets are predicting Rocket to be the darling of this film so if that comes to pass I could see them offering up variants of him or even con exclusives since he is the cheapest of the group.

The is probably, and unfortunately, true. I think I am going to get Groot, Drax and Starlord. I was hoping Rocket would be cheaper...

Trying to build their collections only to sell them them right after they ship because they discovered they care nothing about the property or figures.

Plus PayPal fees of course.
