Hot Toys-MMS 193-GI Joe:Retaliation Storm Shadow Specs + Pics

[vbar1]

I bit the bullet and got him, cant have snakes without storm. I still hate Hot Toys, but the SS looks awesome

 

[AW177]

I am liking this figure but not sure if I would bite the bullet and grab him for $205. That's costly.

 

[playboy409]

nice figure except for the stupid tennis shoes design.

 

[Kibagami]

This is pretty cool. I already PO SE, so having SS is a must. The mixed media on the masked head works well--I think HT is working harder in that area what with the recent Batman armor and such. Seems like anything that gets two headsculpts automatically goes over $200 now. Sigh....

I think I might sell of the unmasked sculpt and I'm pretty sure that will go for a pretty penny.

Storm shadow never goes unmasked in my book.

 

[C0L0SSUS]

I think HT really knocked SS and SE figures outta the park. Both of the head sculpts for SS are incredible. However, this may sound silly, but the GI Joe purist in me can't get past the design of the movie characters. SE w/ the total upper body armor n SS w/ his Adidas kicks don't fit in w/ my RAH collection.. If HT figs still went for $150 a pop, MAYBE, but I gotta be choosy w/ the toy budget I have.

 

[DeltaForceChung]

The HT price point should have been $149.99 to $179.99 tops, but this is IMHO . . . just like everyone else.

^ but why?

It's easy to say but in reality, but It costs the same to produce as all the others that cost the same or more.

Why should this be priced lower than others?

 

[Mad Old Lu]

Unfortunately $195 figures are now the low end of HT.

I think he means it should cost less for what you are getting. Same with SE. HT knows most collectors will to pay 200.00+ for a figure, so they will continue to increase the price as long as people are willing to pay.

 

[SixthScaleEdward]

This SS fig looks cooler than some $220 figs we got before. I'm not complaining.

 

[Shaun & Ed Fan]

I'll stick with my Sideshow Storm Shadow thank you very much!

YOU KNOW . . .

SIDESHOW's STORM SHADOW still holds up very well in comparison to similar offerings from HOT TOYS, but without the price increase. Then again . . . how many of us "complained" about STORM SHADOW's price back then?

Maybe someone will sell boots to make the bottom half of this figure a little more tolerable? In 4 1.

What does this mean?

It's not even "Beiber's" haircut. Asians' had that style long before Bieber stepped in the music game. New take on SS in a modern world. At least the guy has the most comfortable shoes in the movie lol.
