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

Memes are known for being excellent HD quality.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Picture came from a porn site so sorry about the quality.

 

[SilverStar17]

Yeah, if what was about to happen in that meme was true, I'd want to see it in HD also.

Is there any images of BB-8 lit up yet? I want to know what exactly is going to be lit.

 

[inked]

Not true! They charge a £12 administration fee, WTF for? That should be incorporated in the shipping cost not an additional charge.

The £12 fee is waved if you set up an account with FedEx and add a credit card.

SSC used UPS to ship my Marty McFly as they ran out of stock. The UPS guy asked for the cash but I didn't have it so he took me down to his van with my bank card and I paid it direct to their office. Wasn't bothered and saved myself around £25+
I might ask SSC to switch to UPS too.

Just ordered Rey and BB8 thanks to TexasFinest posting that the February $20 code has now turned into a $30 code!

With how well Leia came out I am even more excited for Rey.

It's BB-8 I am interested in, how he's going to light up and how this self balancing mechanisms work!

I thought I read BB-8 will have some type of magnet.

Hopefully the light switch will be less annoying to access than say their recent Thanos/Vader or even the other light saber figures.

They might go for a touch panel like the SS R2D2 perhaps.

I'm interested also in seeing how they choose to balance BB-8.

Need to get my pre-order in soon, but waiting for bloody SS to ship Vader so I can see if the switch to UPS makes any difference to the customs charges.

Unfortunately I think it's only the lights on the head that light up, and not all the little ones on the body. Which is a bummer.

 

[subzro]

I never use the lights on these. It is to much of a pain in the @$$ to turn them on and off.

 

[kazar123]

Yeah the lights aren't practical at all. I turn them on once and I'm like yeah this would be awesome if it was on all the time. But you can't do that. Vader was $100 more for electronic ******** that you maybe use once.

I ordered Vader simply as I do not have one, but hot toys made him way too gimmicky!

 

[kazar123]

I have him and I think he's amazing. Inaccuracies and all. But I do think he was too expensive because of those gimmicks.

Totally agree.

If the light/sound feature were more practical, I could see myself turning them on quite often. I enjoy the Dark Knight Armory and it can be easily lit up with a touch of a button (the remote).

But as is, almost all the Hot Toys Star Wars figures are totally impractical and most of us fear the dreaded battery leakage issue.
