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

[Gipetto0812]

I dont have any problem with Cage really, and I loved GR as a kid, but I really despised the movie with the exception of one or two moments. Just awful

i understand, just seems like lots of ppl don't want to display the Cage HS so just assumed ppl didn't like him much ...i think I was just happy that a movie was finally made. the villains besides Fonda were all horribly done. Hopefully with a new director and direction, The Spirit of Vengeance will be awesome

here's my attempt at making it better. I dont have photoshop, just good 'ol MS Paint but i think it looks a bit better. Still dont mind the original though, as I'm just happy about this figure

I think the "widow peak" flame in the front should come down further. Might make it more menacing.

Off topic but has there been much word about that yet? Are they making it darker? Who's directing?

i hear they are making darker....this was taken from superherohype.com (first post is more recent than the second one)

Romanian news site Hot News (via Screen Rant) is reporting that filmmakers Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor will be ready to start shooting Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, once again starring Nicolas Cage, beginning this fall in Romania, and it will be the first movie shot there in 3D. The site says that it's the country's first major Hollywood production since the late Anthony Minghella's Cold Mountain in 2002, but in fact, Fox Walden's The Seeker: The Dark is Rising was shot there as well.

No release date has been set yet for Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance but having some sort of gameplan for when and where to shoot is a good start.

Incidentally, this plan was confirmed on Neveldine/Taylor's Twitter account a few days ago:"in 12 days we get on a plane for eastern europe and you can kiss our ***** goodbye til february 2011"

and this

Collider spoke to producer Mike De Luca and was able to learn new details on Ghost Rider 2 (it might be called "Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance"). They sent us the following summary:

Mark Steven Johnson is not directing the sequel

Eva Mendes will not return as Roxanne Simpson

Ghost Rider 2 (or Ghost Rider Spirit of Vengeance) will be a hard PG-13

The film is going to take place in Europe

De Luca is open to David Goyer directing the sequel but it all comes down to his very busy schedule

Says the sequel will be like "pushing the reset button" on the franchise

As you might expect from the success of Avatar, Ghost Rider 2 might be done in 3D

Says Goyer has just delivered his updated outline to the studio

And says Ghost Rider 2 could easily be in front of the cameras this year

Sounds ood but they always spout that kinda stuff...

Comparison shot of the movie bike:

The HT one does seem a lot smaller alright...

 

[antimatter]

Bike's small.

 

[Legion]

Theres a few parts that are different as well around the engine and the handlebars seem to be shaped differently...

Still though its badass Just saying...

 

[mr.thrifty]

Yep, need to rake out the forks and raise forward the tank...

very true. only time will tell i guess. but it's enough to get me hoping for something better

and yea the bike does seem small, but for the price of like $240 which is what it seems like it will be, it doesn't bother me so much considering how much the bat-pod goes for by itself

either way im getting this set can't wait for the pre-order

 

[toyrewind]

If this is the movie prop, I think it's close enough.

HT to-do list:

1. Revise skull head
2. Reduce length of neck
3. Make bike a little larger
4. Change body type so it's not too thin
5. Add another skull head with flame wind blown effect
6. Add pair of skeleton hands
7. Make chain a little thicker

Once all of these are done HT Ghost Rider will be perfect.

 

[robbiethepainter]

That's true. That movie shot looks like a whole lot of CGI.

 

[EdwardNashton1]

I wonder if the wheels will roll on the bike. Ya gotta have some fun with it

 

[robbiethepainter]

Ill bet they do. The flames look separate from the tires

 

[Gipetto0812]

yea I'm sure the wheels do move like robbie said

I'd like some human hands as well though, and a non studded up leather jacket for some johnny blaze display fun

 

[mr.fan]

There's just something about the head, it's just not menacing enough and looks a little out of place with the body.

 

[Buttmunch]

Yeah, I agree the skull head could still use some work, but you have to admit they really improved from this:

To this:

 

[EdwardNashton1]

i'd love a pair of ungloved rider hands....hehe. You could display nick staring at his hands XD

Of all those on that list how many do you think HT will do?
They improved the Cage sculpt and I think that'll be all.
Unless you

 

[Deak Starkiller]

Looks like Nicolas Cage, would be cool to own but not at 4 hundee.
