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

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

I'm a little surprised at the love for the yellow/blue flight suits. I thought they were pretty boring. I'm much, much, much rather have Magneto from the end of the film. Plus Emma Frost from her first scene, Azazel, Beast and maybe a Charles in flight suit if we must.

...But the fact is a fact - logically it poorly fit in original X-trilogy, like Origins:Wolverine.

I'd say you're half right...I see FC as something that fits in rather well with the "real" (first two, obviously) X-Men films. Not unlike a comic book that's been continuously published for 45 years, there are bound to be a few (ultimately unimportant) details that need to be fudged a bit, but this film is clearly designed to fit in with the existing Bryan Singer-approved X-Men franchise.

Singer definitely wrote this to take back his X-Universe. It fits into X1 and X2, you have to completely ignore X3 and Wolverine for this which isn't shocking since it's Singer.

If HT was smart they'd pack the hell out of these just below DX level and give us

Blue Flight Suit and Blue suit and Wheelchair

and

Spoiler

Flight suit Erik with blue helmet and red uniformed Magneto from the end.

done and done.

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

Saw this twice already Dam good, actors are amazing.Its up there with Batman not quite but close. They can make at least 13 figures from this line. Whats the most the have done from any one movie?

Can someone put up some clear pics of the characters?

13 ain't happening You'd be lucky to see more than 2 figures from this line. The Dark Knight has probably been their most 'complete' line to date. HT NEVER finished a line. Nevah!

No doubt. Imagine this highly unlikely scenario…

KING OF THE WORLD
So, last weekend I built this groovy new 6-D outer-space camera in my underwater garage. I want Matthew Vaughn to use it for T3 with Eddie Furlong and a CGI mo-cap Arnold.

HOLLYWOOD EXECUTIVE
But Jimmy, we already made Terminator 3. And 4! Huge hits, Baby! Boffo!

KING OF THE WORLD
*stares back blankly*

HOLLYWOOD EXECUTIVE
Arnold was in the 3rd one! We even put Batman and your buddy Jake Avatar in the 4th! Everyone loves Batman, right?

HOLLYWOOD EXECUTIVE
Here's a check 300 million. Call us when you're done.

…Would any of us begrudge Mr. Executive? Not for one second (and that's coming from someone who kinda liked T3). I just hope everyone can take a breath, relax, and move happily on in the reclaimed X-Universe.

Bring on that flight suit Magneto, HT!

I'll say this. As awesome as it would be to get Banshee or Havok from this line it'll never happen. We'll get Charles and Erik and maybe Beast (because it'll give HT a chance to show off using POTA tech already established) and maybe Mystique since they'll be working on the tech with the Romijin version you know is coming with the original license. Even those last two are best guesses. I would not be shocked if they just skipped them. Those pining for Shaw or Frost or Azazel, it's a pipe dream.

The closest you'll ever get to a complete lineup will be THE AVENGERS. Cap, Thor, Iron Man, Black Widow, all of the bases are already done. If they have different costumes in The Avengers (other than Cap) it'll be costuming changes and they'll never miss a chance at an Iron Man. That leaves Hawkeye and The Hulk for new figures. Even that is a bit of a longshot to get them all but it's our best bet.

I want a Magneto! So awesome.

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

Easily the best film in the franchise. I'm in for any HT figures.

I would pass on Frost and end film Magneto (suit did nothing for me). Everyone else is fair game, especially flight suit Magneto w/ helmet and Wolverine.

I dunno. Their RE5 line is pretty complete. If you dont count the mercenaries characters. Also their AVP-R line.

I agree on most likely only seeing 2 figures from this though.

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

This might sound gimmicky, but it would be cool if they could pull off magnetic hands for Erik.

What are babbling about Bio? We still haven't got Josh, Uroboros Wesker, Excella the Chainsaw and Executioner Majinis and the most important character in the entire game IRVING!!!!

They give me his figure and I don't care if HT ever does another FC figure. Even Charles.

I feel the same way.

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

It's pretty unanimous who's the front runner that people want, but it kind of sucks knowing Hot Toys doesn't do the most obvious choice sometimes

 

[KneelBeforrSmallville]

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

Magneto, Charles and KEVIN BACON!!!!

The helmet at the very end is so cool BUT i like the costume on the beach alot better IMO. great movie btw
