Hot Toys Making The Matrix?

Boo to that, 1/6 figures or GTFO

Agreed Im after 1/6th primarily, Ill take something Uber Uber Uber cool . . but thats three Ubers right there . .

If HT are not making 1/6 figures, they have wasted picking up a licence for this.

I'm hoping these items are a step in the right direction to get 1/6 figures made. Sideshow started with Star Wars PF's and now are also making dios, 1/6, 1:1 busts, 1:2 Busts and more. Hoping HT can do the same with the Matrix.

I just hope they don't gauge interest in the Matrix based on (potentially) low sales/interest in this... That'd be a shame.

Here is a video from Comic Con which discusses The Matrix line from Hot Toys

He announces they will be making the Nebuchadnezzar and the APU

Yeah, i just saw that.. so Awesome!! man, one more line to collect!! Argh, poor wallet..

I think it'll happen eventually. They did do the P1 bust before the actual 1/6. Same goes for the Alien. They'd have a better chance of selling these new products before announcing the 1/6 figures.

I have have no doubt the APU will NOT be 1/6 scale. I don't believe there'll be any 1/6 Matrix products from Hot Toys. Why would they move forward on the APU before introducing ANY 1/6 figures??? Because there aren't any.

i dont think this was necessarily ht's decision. wb (or whatever production company that holds the actual intellectual property rights) may not have granted a license to do 1/6, or ht may not have been able to obtain likeness rights for the major players. ht would certainly not release 1/6 w/o correct portraits (and endure the wrath of us fans). of course if this is a case of wb playing hardball, possibly successful sales of the sentinel could affect further negotiations. i'm curious how this plays out.

That's because you have to choose the video you want! Go to the dropdown box under 'Browse Videos' on the right hand side. Choose 'Comic-Con 2009 Podium'. Then choose 'Podium 12'. Too easy!

He mentioned 1/18 scale in that video... If they make an APU in that scale I might actually consider it...

O thanx, didn't know that I needed to look over there. And a search on their site didn't pick up anything usefull.

I reckon when they said 1/18 scale, they actually meant 1/16 scale. I mean, the sentinel IS in 1/16 scale! Mr Chang doesn't speak much English, so I think he assumed that 1/18 was 1/16.

so far we have the sentinel, but would this piece to term as action figure or something else since its not exactly a 1/6 action figure.

Yeah, that's what I was worried about. Oh well... saves me some cash.

1/16 doesn't really fit with anything I've got. It seems like a very odd choice...

 

[SnakeDoctor]

Any word on whether 1/6 figures are in the cards? Not particularly interested in most ... but, I'd be in for an Agent Smith.

I would be down for a Neo and a few others......

 

[Prime Clone]

If they were anywhere near ready I guess we woulda heard about them at SDCC. We can only keep hoping ...

I'm staying positive. A 1/6 Neo by Hot Toys is one of my dream collectibles
