Me too, this morning...

Hello Daron,

Thanks for your great support to Hot Toys.

Your suggestion and comment on the Thor and Captain America from Avengers will be forwarded to our production team as a reference.

Please keep visit our Facebook page to get our most updated news.

Best Regards
KC/ Hot Toys

It may not mean very much, but at least acknowledgement is a start.
 
This is my email to them...

Dear Hot Toys,

I am a big fan of your work. My very first figure was Superman v1 from SUPERMAN RETURNS and now I cannot stop!!

But please may I ask you about two of your AVENGERS figures...Captain America and Thor?

Are there plans to continue to work on the face sculpts of Thor? Whilst it is very good, the likeness could be refined just a little more. This would make something that is great into something that is fantastic!

Also, the face-with-no-mask Captain America is good, but please can you reconsider how the mouth looks, it seems slightly out. The face-with-mask is fantastic.

My favourite artists are Arnie Kim and Lee So Young, it is amazing what they can do.

Please do continue in bringing us amazing figures, and thank you for listening to the fans.

Sincere regards to you all...

As I was not sure who would be reading it, I thought to keep the level of English as respectful and fully functional and not overly complicated. Those working in customer service would be able to speak perhaps a small smattering of English (I assume), but who would they actually be passing this on to?

"Whilst"? That probably won't even turn up in their English-Chinese dictionary! :rotfl
 
Just thought I'd post my mod up here from the first version thread. Finally got the arms in from eBay. Rubber sleeves essentially. Fills out the arms pretty well.

Well done.
 
Ok, it looks interesting, but what do they look like when bent?

Not as good. It has a spare tire look in crook of the elbow at a 90 degree angle but it's a decent and cheap way to beef up Thor in a static pose. $8.00 on eBay for muscle arm sleeves.
 
Did I already say you people are a bunch of crying babys?

Both HS are great, hope HT don´t try to ger it "better" and then screw them!

In you opinion they are great, but your opinion is just one opinion, and not everyone's. Now I am not going to be so arrogant as to say that I am speaking for the majority (in truth it seems to be about a 50/50 mix of opinion)...but on here - as well as other forums - there seems to be a feeling that they could be worked on some more.

So, is it really being a cry baby to expect something better than average from such an expensive figure? If I am going to shed over 200 notes on one figure then I hope it's going to be as good as I can reasonably want it to be (accepting that not any figure is 100% perfect as a given).

And likewise Hot Toys, I am sure they welcome polite and respectful letters from bona fide collectors such as the folks on here.

Exactly what purpose does wanting, pre-ordering or even buying a figure, and then giving no feedback whatsoever, actually achieve anyway? :dunno
