Can we take bets?
Who will go up for PO first.
Quicksilver or Drax?

Drax.

Drax.

Quicksilver

"You didn't see that coming?"

In Marvel's Avengers: Age of Ultron, Pietro Maximoff a.k.a Quicksilver has undergone experiments by HYDRA to obtain superpowers with increased metabolism and improved homeostasis. When the Maximoff twins learned of Ultron’s plan to cause human extinction, they joined the Avengers to stop the terrible fate from happening. Many people have been longing for this fast-running newcomer and now Hot Toys is officially introducing this new 1/6th scale collectible figure for fans to complete their Avengers: Age of Ultron team.

The movie-accurate Quicksilver Collectible Figure is specially crafted based on the image of Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Quicksilver in Avengers: Age of Ultron. It features a newly developed head sculpt with detailed hair sculpture, specially tailored costume, and an Avengers: Age of Ultron themed figure stand.

Now it’s the time to complete your Avengers: Age of Ultron collection with the Quicksilver 1/6th scale collectible figure!

Holo always on it!

Kinda barebones but he looks very well done

Easy pass for me. He looks like someone about to Jazzercise or something. Really lame design. I guess it worked ok in the movie when he was moving at Mach speeds, but it just looks lame as a figure.

If this was leaked a year or two ago, people would be wondering why some random jogger was being made into a Hot Toys.

It looks very well done, but I didn't care for the character. Probably the only Avenger from the 2nd movie I'm not going to buy.

I was really hoping HT would surprise us with the jacket he wore early in the movie.

This will be the next Hawkeye V1.

I seriously doubt it. Much worse design and they killed him off. I was very happy to get the Hawkeye, but I have zero interest in this unless it hits sub-$100 prices. And this is coming from a guy who pretty much buys any HT Marvel figure.

Edit- I know who to compare it to- Elektro. Another easy pass dues to poor design (not HTs fault).

QFT. They should have given him a ultron part...or special base...anything. definitely a poor offering from HT.

Getting.

Re: Hot Toys - MMS - Avengers: AoU - Quicksilver figure discussion

Short on the accessories department but I wonder how much will he cost?

Re: Hot Toys - MMS - Avengers: AoU - Quicksilver figure discussion

Hey, buy what you like. People seem to hate HT Optimus Prime, and I love it. If you love it, buy it. Who give a carp what other people think.

I'm tempted to buy two Optimus Primes actually.

they should've added some kind of special speed trail effect or something that you could attach to him.

Re: Hot Toys - MMS - Avengers: AoU - Quicksilver figure discussion

why anyone would expect this to be sub 200 is beyond me. It may be, but it shouldn't be expected. When it's 160 bucks for a stand that has zero licensing why people think a figure would be sub 200 is beyond me. If figures costing over 200, any figure, is a problem..you should probably look for another company to collect. It's what they cost. They won't be getting cheaper.

Not my favorite figure, and I didn't much like the character from the movie. But I'm not gonna get all the other figures from the movie and skip this. So, I'll be ordering.

I am in the same boat here. Price will be a factor but I guess I will NEED this to complete my AOU line.

Actually searching current prices, I agree. Probably $219-229 range, similar to Black Widow and Scarlet Witch.

If it goes on sale for $100 in the discount bin I'll buy one, otherwise I'm passing. I might have been tempted if he had some sort of effect that made him look fast or something. He just looks like a guy to me, he doesn't look "super" at all.

This is an expensive lineup. And I bet it's not over yet. Though I hope I'm wrong. Lol

So no power effects, no wind swept hair style, no track suit, no accessories at all
