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

Just got back from seeing it and thought it was great. I haven't been that glued to a screen in a while.

The relationship between Charles and Erik was extremely well done. And the cameos were awesome too. I would have to really nit pik it to find anything I didn't like about this movie.

I can't wait for HT to get going.

I didn't love Azazel and Riptide. They seemed like 80's vampires that wandered out of Lost Boys and into an X-Men movie.

Good analogy

They were kind of under-developed as characters. If there is a sequel, I expect they're gonna focus a bit more on Devil Man (since I'm guessing they included him as a means to set up Nightcrawler's birth), but wouldn't be surprised if Riptide pulled a Toad and was gone forever from future films.

IMO, i'd pick Azazel to be on my display than Charles/prof X. heck, i may even buy multiples of that figure for bash purposes.

I want a Professor X, Magneto, and Beast. We will see what they decided to go with.

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

Magneto and Xavier just go together like pb & j - even more so in this movie than in the others.

Theirs is the main story/relationship of the movie, and I want Charles for that reason.

Gully confirmed Xavier and Magneto, followed by Beast and Emma Frost. He has contacts in Marvel's licensing department.

I also have deep contacts within HT.

You ready for this, they're releasing a Superman, Captain America and Keaton Batman.

Don't know how legit this might be, but those 4 sound like a pretty good selection. Though an Xavier figure will be excruciatingly boring

Spoiler

without a wheelchair

. The one strange pic to me would be Emma over Mystique, though. Maybe they're gonna hold out for a Romign-Stamos Mystique from one of the other films.

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

I hope magneto comes with the helmet, then i can bash a unique more magneto style outfit of my own tastes for him.

I'd assume they'll do them in uniform, just guys in regular clothes seems too simple.

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

Magneto and Emma Frost? Awesome those are the two I wanted. I could care less about Beast and Xavier, as figures of course.

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

Magneto is a definite purchase. I'm not sure about Charles. Passable for me especially since he has hair and I want my Professor X wheelchair bound and bald. Beast if done like the POTA figures would be an instant buy as well even if I hated the Morrison Cat styling they went with but Emma would be an easy pass. It's just a chick in lingerie for the most part not exactly worth the $150 pricetag I'm sure it'll come with.

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

I'm doubting they will get to Emma, but I sure hope they prove me wrong.

If true that'd be a pretty diverse and eye-catching line-up.

Magneto would need one of his costumes with his helmet, of course.

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

Nice i cant wait for them to be released ill buy all of them

 

[Kicksplode]

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

I really hope Magneto comes with both the X-Men outfit and the suit in the final scene, but I'm sure I'll be buying him either way. Probably Xavier too as long as they include enough bells and whistles to make him worth the $150.

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

Ideally he should come with a wheelchair. Otherwise I don't see why anyone but the most dedicated of fans would go for him.

 

[skeemer]

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

I doubt they'll give him the wheelchair. We only saw him like for less than a minute with iT. But you never know

 

[Kicksplode]

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

I don't think a wheelchair is out of the question as long as they can figure out how to package it (some assembly required, I assume). It's not any more than what the Mech Test Tony Stark came with as far as bulky accessories. I'd gladly give up the standard Hot Toys base if they want to substitute the wheelchair instead.
