Hot Toys - MMS113 - Blade II - 1/6th scale BLADE Ltd Ed spec + pics

When Hot Toys gets around to it.

"Product shown is not final" so they ought to be tweeking it, or, they're waiting to see how things pan out before committing.

Release dates are always sketchy as they give only year quarters and not a actual date.

blade trinity was not completely awful. there were some decent moments in it. but it's still not a very good movie.

overall, the cast was fine (reynolds was great), except for that idiot actor who played drake. he was overacting constantly. in fact the villain was the main reason why the movie ultimately failed, imo.

after 2 great villains (frost and nomak), we get a lame pseudo-bat-hulk who's not even remotely threatening. the so-called climax was just a letdown.

i re-watched blade 2 last night (yeah, been on a blade binge lately ) and still feel it's the best of the lot. pretty great showdown at the end, and i really like nyssa's poignant death scene at sunrise. touching.

I don't think that was the actors fault. He's fine on Prison Break. Just horrible casting and directing. Dracula should have looked like Marcus from Underworld 2. A noble but fairly unassuming guy who turns into a bad ass bat-monster.

Blade 2 owns! Also my favorite of the trilogy. Nomak was so awesome and then the reaper strain was brilliant. Del Toro rules!

And Goyer who wrote all three films directed Blade Trinity as his directional debut. So that could have had something to do with a weaker Blade film. A rookie behind the helm, and I agree that Drac was poorly miscast. Either way, I did enjoy Drac. Just not as much as I enjoyed Frost or Nomak.

Having said that, as weak as it was in comparison to the other two films, it pleased this movie goer as an action/comedy. Lets face it, it was definitely more campier and funnier than the other two films. I would say it's above average, but that Blade I and II raised the bar very high, so anything less than those was considered a let down.

Bad film? Hardly.

To add, King made Blade Trinity work. Without him in it, the film would have been abysmal. Oh, and the Biel shower scene.

Yet again well said. It wasn't a bad film just weak compared to the first 2.

It's not bad or terrible i just wanted it to escalate to even better than Balde II. It was not bad at all but a slight let down, I still enjoyed it but wanted more BAM!!!

Once again we reach the same conclusion

Once again we reach the same conclusion

Yeah and we all agree.

 

[Morbach]

So if we are lucky and get at least 1 more character from the trilogy who would you want? I want Nomak to go with Blade from part 2. Or Whistler.

 

[Skiman]

Nomak

 

[Morbach]

Nomak

Regular head with intense expression. And an alternate head with open split mouth.
