Hot Toys - MMS: X-Men 1st Class (License Discussion)

Re: Hot Toys-MMS: X-Men 1st Class

I just returned from the film. Marvel is 2 for 2.....a very, very solid effort.

In terms of HT figures Magneto in classic blue and yellow is a MUST. The comic version of the suit was meh. Xavier would be really nice, anyone else would be a bonus.

oh really? could you describe the comic version suit? I thought it would look awesome.

The color was too vibrant and it looked like a 1970's leisure suit modified of course with pockets in the front. I wasn't impressed

I totally agree with you! From behind the suit looked awesome, with the cape and all, but when we saw the front I was like: "that's it?"
It looked kinda lame, plus the helmet looked too comiclike for the film. Not impressed either.

Yeah... I think the helmet especially bothered me. Fassbender was awesome throughout, but that helmet sort of toned it down for me. He looked way more bad ass in his civilian clothes.

I remember that bar scene... if he was in his magneto outfit during that scene, it wouldn't have carried that same killer vibe. Not that he even had the costume at the time of course, just using it as an example.

I agree completely!

Spoiler

The look of the final costume was too lame for a character as awesome as his!

I actually hope well get civilian clothes and the grey helmet along with the yellow-blue flightsuit on the figure!

We all agree he looked awesome as a civilian and in classic blue-yellow flight suit Oh and the bar scene loved it..

Re: Hot Toys-MMS: X-Men 1st Class

Am seeing this today with the miss....

Re: Hot Toys-MMS: X-Men 1st Class

Anyone notice how close (not exact) the new Goblin flight suit is compared to the XFC flight suits? Change Goblins from green to blue and yellow and pretty much have the X men suit

Re: Hot Toys-MMS: X-Men 1st Class

could easily replace the headsculpt with that of McAvoy or Fassbender...

Another thing

Spoiler

Wolverine cameo was classic. He was onscreen about as long as the armor unleashed Mark II version was on the table in IM 2. Perhaps we will see Magneto, Xavier and Wolverine

That would be really awesome! I missed the first HT Wolverine and now he costs a fortune... I'd much rather have a normal clothes Wolverine then a X-Men uniform one, so hopefully they'll make one!

Re: Hot Toys-MMS: X-Men 1st Class

I wonder when the first announcement will be. I would image whoever is first comes in at a reasonable price. Not a lot of accessories unless you go 2 in 1 (civilian and flight suit).

Re: Hot Toys-MMS: X-Men 1st Class

I never understand why people complain that HT doesn't finish lines. Does money grow on your trees?

If they don't make it, less temptation. I'm OK with that.

I know all about money not growing on trees - the thing is, I limit my collecting to licenses I'm passionate about - I don't just buy whatever HT or SSC puts out. They make really cool figures, but as of right now I only own a handful. Why? Because they have many licenses I'm not passionate enough about to justify the expense.

I have to be a passionate fan of the franchise. And if I am, then I like to collect multiple characters from that franchise to display together. If I'm passionate about it, I want the main characters.

Re: Hot Toys-MMS: X-Men 1st Class

Having just returned from the film I found that while I enjoyed it immensely I have nt the slightest desire for figures from it whatsoever and that surprised me.

Re: Hot Toys-MMS: X-Men 1st Class

just saw the movie, and yeah....I'll take one of these, please

 

[The Ween]

Re: Hot Toys-MMS: X-Men 1st Class

I have to wonder how many of these they'll actually make. I'm guessing probably two. I get so disappointed in HT because they never give you more than one or two characters from a line.
