1/6 Hot Toys - MMS 498 - Ant-man and the Wasp - The Wasp

[Motuxmen]

Sure, be logical about it. No wonder you get into so many arguments.

My bad. lol stupid logic.

- Newly developed body with over 28 points of articulations

It looks to me like the costume may go around the chest and then under it, with the abdomen section tucking under that gold underwire part that sticks out. (so you may be able to pop the upper body off without taking off the costume) There'd be no body swapping but it would allow greater range of motion than that thick, tight fabric would normally allow. Just guessing.


Something like that and/or other innovation that allows those deep 3 point landing poses.


*made famous by Iron Man, but done by Blade first : )

There is only nrd's if it like 300$ or more.

Maybe, but it looks to me more like they just added the breast armor over the other parts of the suit. There doesn’t appear to be a seam line on the sides that would need to be therefor the upper body being a different section.

Order through BBTS- no NRD and you can cancel at any time- this might be a surprising early sell out

Looks like you were right. It's already sold out from BBTS. However Antman is still available.

 

[kyekye]

If you're not gonna cancel and live in US, AlterEgo is better option.
They offer the same price as BBTS + free continental priority shipping

I think its 260 for BBTS. How much was Black Panther? That got an NRD

I was lucky enough to be invited by Marvel for an early screening of Ant Man and The Wasp and gotta say, it was awesome - cleaver combo of fun, laughs, jokes, action and emotions! After seeing the movie, I am definitely ordering The Wasp - she kicked ***.

One question though - I have the original Hot Toys Ant Man - do I need to pick up the new one to match with the Wasp, or can the old one go with it? Hmm....

I had panther po'ed at one time, no nrd man. Thor was 260 for the deluxe, no nrd again. The JL batman is 266, nor nrd either. Trust me it's in the 300 range for nrd.

 

[subzro]

They added the NRD on Black Panther a few days after it went up for PO.

 

[HTHero]

Preordered both as soon as I could from BBTS. I think I actually got the last Wasp PO from them, as when I checked the page after checkout it was sold out. Haven't seen the movie yet, but I have my ticket ready for Thursday night. Not expecting IW levels of stuff, but I am certain it's going to be fun!

I wonder if they'll do a Ghost figure. She looks awesome!

I never thought I was going to get Ant-man (The mini one that came with CW Scarlet Witch was enough for my Avengers setup) but I see myself only having these two with each other, so I think I'll be fine with the scaling, plus I could just put the mini-Wasp with my mini-Ant-man for the Avengers setup, so it all works out!

Nope. There is no price range. It's based on the character.
You'll notice most Star Wars figures have it. Some examples:

Yoda costs 190 and has NRD.
Count Dooku costs 243 and has NRD.
Luke Skywalker (both versions) from TLJ costs less than 250 and has NRD.
Figures from Solo all cost less than 250. All have NRD.

Guess they have made some changes then. Nothing i have po'ed from them fro months has had any nrd. Maybe too many cancels are starting to prompt even them for nrd's.

 

[subzro]

They have been slowy adding them to random figures and i can't blame them.

 

[Hoody999]

Anyone interested in selling the miniature version of Antman or the Wasp in these sets send me a PM.

You know they'll just sit in the box otherwise

Blame retailers over estimating the lasting appeal of TFA and the subsequent newer films. They've been stuck with peg warming TFA product for several years now and the response to TLJ just made that earlier stock even more toxic.

That's why it's primarily, if not exclusively, a cautionary approach to SW pre-orders now. I doubt Ep IX will do much to change that.

And they have a great rewards system.

Have they changed their cancellation policy though? They used to have no penalties for cancellations- though you would likely be blackballed if you did it more than a couple times.

I've been trying to be good about not over committing to pre-orders for things I'd normally be on the fence over. I think I'm going to regret PO'ing Thanos now though. I liked the character well enough in IW, but he'll almost certainly see a figure for the next film in his armor.

 

[AW177]

Surprising this cost more than ant man does. Lilly can''t be that much a bigger star than Rudd.

Saw the movie tonight, and gotta say, Wasp kicks ***...

When is BBTS going to stop enabling these people?

 

[Stryker2011]

When is BBTS going to stop enabling these people?

Soon, hopefully. And they should send a blacklist to all the other retailers to force them out, or make sure they pay full price up front (with no refund option).
