Hot Toys - MMS - Star Wars Episode VII: Rey 1/6th Collectible Figure

[Hitman84]

For all we know a lightsaber has been planned the entire time but they've had to Not show it from directive from Disney.
adding a "secret banner" or pixelating the image would give it away for a lot of people I feel.

Or it's just given to Finn only to make us want to buy both.

 

[Wor-Gar]

With Hot Toys?

v2 Rey... with lightsaber. Pay $220.

 

[earthdog]

I thought I would, but this one is more detailed. I pre-ordered day 1. Love my Sphero BB-8 though. It's really fun.

Is the sphero close to 1/6?

 

[TonTon]

The sphero is pretty close. I mean the HT one will likely be a better detailed version with lights and maybe arms, but the pictures so far don't show it to look all that realistic. The BB-8 from HT is also somewhat inexpensive at $65 extra, which is maybe what's worrying me too, that they'll cheap out on him.

 

[Spark Extractor]

I wish they would include....

Spoiler

an extendable arm with the lighter/torch on BB-8.

Watching the film now. So far so good.

Don't know if spoiler tags are still required.

I like how Rey, after rescuing BB-8, says of the scavenger, "He's no respect for anyone."

BB-8 is instantly given the same status as a human by her. The way Luke grew to respect Artoo.

With her sitting by a destroyed At-AT (reminiscent of Luke's battle on Hoth), wearing a rebel pilot's helmet very similar to one worn by Luke, dreaming of escaping her dreary existence on a desert planet, the clues are seeming to point very clearly to her being his daughter. Or it's simply an allusion to Luke's life - yet the Force is strong in her, and Luke does state, "The Force is strong in my family. My father has it. I have it. My sister has it. You have that power, too."

She has to be be. Doesn't she?

How can you be watching the film NOW and be typing this long post?

There's another cam copy online, but this time at least it's in English!

Did you not see it in the theater?

Haven't been in a cinema since Terminator 2.


18 minutes into TFA and I already know I want to buy it on Blu-ray.

 

[TonTon]

That makes me sad, Kuat. Can't remember if i saw T2 in the theatre--I know I read the novelization for some reason though. Get off the board, we'll be here when the flick is done.

WHAT!? Where the hell do you live?

You're missing out on one of the greatest earthly pleasures there is (it would be heavenly if not for cell phones).

No, one of the greatest earthly pleasures is owning a film on a lovely shiny disc that you can play, pause and rewind without having to make a decision to see it at a certain point in time with a bunch of strangers.

My dad is a Brit and hates going to the theatre due to the people and the "smell of popcorn" as he puts it. Little does he know that some people eat hot dogs and all sorts of other things these days at the movies.

I remember the floor being sticky.

And no, it wasn't that kind of cinema.

I have an aversion to the transient nature of cinema. When a film plays you have to stay with it or miss it. I have the same aversion to watching series on television. I much rather wait and have an entire season on disc.

seeing it with strangers is what makes it so great. People are cheering and laughing together at something they enjoy. It really adds to the experience and excitement imo. Shiny discs are awesome too, dont get me wrong

 

[Wor-Gar]

Most experiences are better shared.

Yeah, but I'm anti-social.

I like to deal with fellow nerds through the protective barrier known as the internet.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I liked Rey as a character and thought Daisy did a great job, but I don't feel compelled to add her figure to my shelves.

 

[subzro]

Something like HAS to be seen on the big screen at least once or you are really missing out. I can understand waiting and watching a comedy or court room drama on DVD but this is an experience.


IMO
