isnt it early enough for them to change that? Seems simple enough... werent a bunch of changes made to the Joker DX after the promo pics were released?
 
Hot Toys has come a long way with factory paint apps vs. prototype paint app in such a short time span (late 2008 to now). I think a good example would be their just-released Blade figure.

Take a look at the prototype photos from HT:

And compare them with the final figure. Photos from member 'OMG':

I haven't seen a 1/4 scale PF or comiquette that comes close to that realism.

Thanks!!

I get the feeling that Aldo will look pretty nice in person when he ships.

A must-have figure but I kind of wish they'd sculpted him with a closed mouth. Seems to exhibit more 'tude that way.

Yeah, those 4 would make a great series of figures :rock

And I think I have officially gotten over my concerns regarding the headsculpt... still would have preferred the iconic chin-out look; but there's no denying this figure as-is will be amazing :lecture
 
Have to say I am a little put off by the price on him... $160 seems very high considering its a standard body and one head.

Guessing $160 will be the new price point for Hot Toys?
 
In some ways the price is understandable as non one is really at the same level as them... but still seeing a $20-$30 increase in basic figures from last year is scary.
 
How many of you would buy the "movie" Hitler if they made him?
I'd be a little too weirded out to have a Hitler in my collection I think.

It seems to me that their figures keep getting better and better, just look at the new Arnold, so I would expect them to continue increasing in price indefinitely as most things do. I guess we just have to hope for a raise to keep up?
 
I wouldnt, but not because its Hitler. Because although the story has much to do with Hitler, he himself is not in much of the movie and doesnt play much of a role in the story's events. MAYBE if every other character was made first I would get it, just to complete a set.
