Hot Toys-MMS 133-Ghost Rider Limited Edition Collectible Figurine with Bike Set

[ThorsThunder]

Yeah Im thinking about waiting. Spider-man is a for sure with me because I know they wont make him better seeing the ____ty costume in the upcoming film. The Iron man MKIV and VI isnt much difference and Im happy with him. Ghost rider is one character I never ever thought Id care about but man this figure looks so damn cool.

Yeah Im thinking about waiting.

I thought about that too but figured I can always sell it later with virtually (maybe even literally) no loss so I might as well grab this one now just in case

Oh all you doubters and waiters... so many times I hear the story "I wish I would've jumped on it before it doubled in price"....

My thoughts exactly

 

[kennkulet]

i don't know why so much hate here in sideshow freaks.... if you don't like the thread don't check it out...don't say anything... very simple... we're all collectors here we have different likes and dislikes...

 

[karamazov80]

For the reason you guys say, I'm considering picking this guy up even though he isn't a priority for me by any means. I like my Marvel figures, and don't want to miss the boat and have this guy turn into Blade 2.0 if I decide that I want him later.

Then again, he could be Two Face 2.0 for all I know. Part of that's gonna depend on the supply of course.

 

[EVILFACE]

Two Face didn't come with a bike and a light up flaming skull and is a meh figure in a suit . . . .

But yea, this figure has Blade written all over it. People will be scrambling once he is released.

 

[Boba Ben]

I agree that this figure will be a pretty rare in the future. Ghost Rider with his bike as an accessory is something that is going to really pull people in and as more Marvel figures are made, having a complete set of all the characters will become a big draw. Figures like Blade, Wolverine, Mark I and II are already showing this trend on the market.

I think Two Face has one of the coolest heads of any Hot Toys figure out there, and that his price is due to over-production (released in large numbers stateside and in Asia due to the Dark Knight craze). I'm not sure the light-up feature or "stationary bike" will be as attractive to HT collectors as it would be to Hasbro collectors, either. But, I could be wrong. Personally, I'll probably leave the bike in the box if I get this guy at all.

I agree that the flame effect isn't very easy to achieve in plastic form all that well. However, I think I'll probably display him standing in front of the bike if I have the room. It's still a pretty cool looking bike and I like that they included it as it's an essential part of the Ghost Rider character in my opinion.

 

[karamazov80]

Yeah, I guess you are right. He is called "Ghost Rider," after all An essential part of the character, but I guess my take is that I'm not sure that many additional sets will move for the light-up feature and bike alone. I figure most folks will buy this because they like the character or think it is a cool looking figure.

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

If they didn't include a bike everyone would be like, "wtf! Ghost Rider is supposed to have a bike, where's his freaking bike?!"

 

[EVILFACE]

Medicoms lanky half assed GH didn't have one.

enough said

 

[Nicbot]

Cancelled my pre-order for Ghostrider, although I love the character, the bike doesn't look like its worth its price tag. It looks a little bit smaller compared to what it should be, and it doesnt take my breathe away like the Tron cycle does

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

but... Marvel>Tron

 

[kennkulet]

tron cycle is big but the fig don't stand ... no extra hs sculpt... i stick to this one...

 

[EVILFACE]

Yea, the Tron bike doesn;t compare. You can't even remove the figure. Might as well just be a statue.

 

[Geil]

Especially for this and Tron I wish HT could have a "plug in" option as the lights in these really need to be on 24/7 to make it look realistic. Btw considering that you are getting a whole GR with two HS the bike is really a great deal being had for $130 more! The value of Tron cycle is not as good but I consider that to be a reasonable deal and this being a great deal as the batpod alone was $250

Can't wait to see the box. And do you guys think the bike will be able to roll.
