Re: Hot Toys - MMS 253 - Guardians of the Galaxy - Groot & Rocket

my main concern with the 2-pack is, do the figures come in one larger box or the normal separate ones in the same shipper, I didnt get the Banner/Hulk set, whats the deal with those?

One large box I think. Chitauri set was one box :huh
 
Re: Hot Toys - MMS 253 - Guardians of the Galaxy - Groot & Rocket

that doesnt mean it won't be, I'll guess we'll see

Nope, but then why tease something with a figure if that's going to end up being an exclusive? The exclusive will likely be a BD helmet or something already made and easy to alter slightly.

I think it would be a bigger box...I spose Groot will need a bigger box in general given his height. I'm curious as to how the TDK Box will look. Its gotta be huge!
 
Re: Hot Toys - MMS 253 - Guardians of the Galaxy - Groot & Rocket

so it would most likely have different artwork than the single figures?

Not necessarily. From what I recall the set box has the same artwork just layered as a single image.

Well we did see Rocket's prison outfit in the teaser and we haven't seen that yet so maybe they are doing things different with this line :dunno

I may end up getting the 2pack and singles anyway so it doesnt matter all that much

I assume the exclusive will be the next infinity gem (stone) and container like the tesseract and aether.

Isn't it the orb that Star-Lord steals? The coming soon promo pic shows him holding it in his right hand. I'm guessing but I just assumed that was one of the infinity stones.

I assume it is but who knows. In one of the trailers it looks like Ronan's axe has a purple gem. Not sure if its the orb or something completely different. Even if it is, i just assume they would want a consistent look for them in a special container.

POed through BBTS-two pack..NO NRD. Wonderful!
 
Re: Hot Toys - MMS 253 - Guardians of the Galaxy - Groot & Rocket

It seems the Rocket in this set and the single set is very 'bare bones' I highly suspect another rocket as this set seemingly doesn't have his rocket pack (which was also shown on the protos along with the prison outfit) - hasnt stopped me ordering though :rotfl

Re: Hot Toys - MMS 253 - Guardians of the Galaxy - Groot & Rocket

Ordered the two-pack from Alter Ego for $339.99. That's the best price I've seen to date (followed by AFX at $341.99), plus they're the closest retailer to me, so lowest shipping charges. Plus they double box for no extra charge (standard practice). I was going to wait to see Star-Lord and Gamora before ordering, but I have a feeling that $20 discount won't be available after the movie opens.

Rocket and Groot ordered. I'm a sucker for the team display.
