Hmmm... had some breakage today. The strap loop on the shield strap that he has to hold onto broke. Easily fixable by glue, but just be aware of it. I was worried about that bit since the whole strap is made of so many separate pieces and tried to be really careful but since you really have to jam his hand on to get the shield on and you have to slide the strap in under a relatively tight hand grip I'm not surprised the loop came loose.

Yeah, mine arrived broke/unglued in the same area. Easy enough fix though.
 
Lets not forget Vision either

Agreed... Vision would be a great character to see visualized :) on screen.

That's probably true, but to me, it's akin to saying that all you need for a core JLA is Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, and a Green Lantern of some sort. When I think you need Martian Manhunter, whose identity is more being a JLAer than a solo hero (like Pym and Jan) and who has also been around since the very beginning (unlike Superman and Batman, who were only early members in name) and stayed with the team through times when others didn't (e.g., JLA Detroit and JLI).

But yes, if they actually decided to do a JLA movie, Manhunter would no doubt be an afterthought, just as Pym was for the Avengers.

As for Vision, he didn't come along until well into the series, but I wouldn't put him, Wonder Man, Scarlet Witch, Pietro, and Black Panther far behind the guys already mentioned.

All of those are ones I'd love to see (eventually) added to the Marvel/Avengers film universe. And if the casting is right (like it's been for other Marvel films so far) it'd be a great opportunity for some break away solo films of characters that the general public are not aware of-- remember how many people were totally oblivious to Ironman prior to RDJ donning the red and gold.

Well I figure the avengers films will deal with ultron eventually which will have to involve pymm and will result in vision...

Hopefully that's the way they go-- Wasn't Pym supposed to be the scientist friend that was mentioned in the Thor movie (the one that Skarrsgard's character was going to contact at SHIELD when all of their stuff got taken)?

Love this shot... I hope HT's delivers on a 1/6 Hulk for next summer's movie.
 
Mine came a day early. Typical box from Sideshow, big dents and holes, that smashed Caps box. I have to believe this happens in the SS warehouse. I never get any smashed boxes from UPS other than the ones from SS. (my conspiracy theory for them wanting you to pay extra for another box).

Mine came with foot pegs and buttons. Looks good so far, wont take it out til xmas eve for my son.

Yeah same happened to mine. Not a big deal. HT needs to buy some better glue.

LOL at Batman
 
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where is this amazing Hulk from!!!!!!!!!!!??????? :thud:

Yes, we really need to find out. This cannot be the only one around.:panic:

Lol, just thought its odd that out of all the customs that I have, the big guy is the one I get lots of PM's from.
I wish I could help, but this guy came with a plain brown box, with nothing written on him, no logo, no artist info, nothing. The only info that I could think of is that I think it was made by the same guy who made this custom wolverine.

The only reason I found this Hulk was when someone photoshopped his pic next to the other HT figures to mimic the Avengers. So I asked the guy where he found the hulk and he sent me a link to the ebay sale.
As far as more info about the guy, I will say that when I first bought it, I actually regret buying him at first cause I was thinking he may look cool on pics but he's gonna look like a cheap plastic figure when he arrives. To my shocked, it was not the case. It was very well made. The paintjob is amazing with several layers of green, yellow and blues. He is also quite heavy. The coolest thing though is that he blends perfectly with the Hot Toys cause he has some texture to him, unlike regular statues that looks like its made of shiny marble.
A fellow freak pointed out that it looks like the artist was also inspired by the art from the Ed Norton Hulk movie as you can tell from these pics.
