Hot Toys - MMS179 - The Amazing Spider-Man: Spider-Man

[Kcreed]

Anyone worried they're gonna pull a Loki on us? Skipping this version and making the ASM2 version? D:

personally, the might as well if you ask me. i think the amazing Spiderman 2 comes out next year, therefore it would make some kind of sense to skip this and head for the ASM2 figure. This suit wasn't really to my liking any ways.

FOR ****S SAKE. THEY WON'T NOR SHOULD THEY CANCEL THIS.

IF THEY CAN MAKE 50 DIFFERENT IRON MANS AND A BUNCH DIFFERENT CAPS AND THORS THEY BETTER ****ING RELEASE BOTH VERSIONS OF THE ASM COSTUMES.

End of.

 

[Biojex]

You shouldn't get so worked up over other peoples silly opinions. They won't cancel this guy. He's already been solicited, with PO's accounted for. This guy is coming, unless they're some racial controversy like the Django figures

I'm sure HT still plan on releasing this figure, like someone mentioned, PO's have been accounted for. i agree with you on the 50 different IMs and CAPS that are getting pumped out by the hour from HT.

It would have been really cool to get a few variations of Raimi's Spiderman from HT. I mean, they could have given us, Peter's Ist costume, Venom figure or headsculpt and even a battle damaged Spiderman.

It's a numbered, announced release. It won't be cancelled.

But I'm sure many of us will just wait for this version:

My favorite movie spidey design so far.

 

[Biojex]

I want aaaaaaall da Spidey's!

I really liked the first suit, it was unique and has it's appeal kinda like all the new armors for Iron Man.

In all seriousness, I don't understand why it would be so hard for Hot Toys to simple put out an announcement saying,

"It's delayed because of licensing issues, we're waiting for sign off on the likeness."

or

"We're more interested in fleecing the Iron Man Fanboys ATM (Hey, I am one OK!), so we'll get back to Spidey when we can!"

or

"My dog ate my home work, there was a fire, a car ploughed into my Granny, it's not my fault!!!!!"

Anything, even the feckin truth! But just acknowledge the fact he's late, give us a reason. We all want the figure, most of us will hold out and be incredibly happy with the end result when he comes. Just give us a little customer service guys.

 

[Chapter 2099]

This too shall come to pass. Bring it, HTs!

I don't know WHY it's so difficult for Hot Toys to update us on stuff....but clearly keeping us up to date on their products is not in their business model.

100% agreed!
Not saying that HT is a terrible company with terrible products but their customer relations is so horrendous that it leaves a very bad taste in collectors mouths.

I too would like the figure to be released as others have said. That costume is unique and that is a major selling point that HT would be foolish to ignore.

 

[DarthDiggler]

Sooo, this figure wasn't at Anicom.

 

[chewdeezy]

Well, I'm looking forward to my refund.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Was hoping it'd be there to see if they changed anything.

 

[Ninjaknight]

Has Anicom officially started?

With HT whole line up out?

 

[DarthDiggler]

I believe it has started.

Whether or not HT has shown everything they wished to remains to be seen, but it's not looking good for this figure making an appearance, is it?

 

[mikericm]

They announced GOTG, Thor 2 and The Winter Soldier.

But didn't announce X-Men DOFP & ASM2. WTF?

I said it before, I bet its a studio issue. Those 3 aren't Marvel Studio. All the Marvel figures being showered on us are.

So Sony Pictures and Fox are the potential problem, eh?

I have no official knowledge. But it makes sense to me. If there were ever a license HT could have made more than Batman and IM combined, it would have been X-Men. And all we got was 2 wolverines.

Licencing/legal issues will be the most likely cause. I agree with you, marvel studios seem to be most relaxed than the other studios they always seem relaxed and down to earth. Hell not that long ago Sony got very defensive when it was suggested that the Spiderman licence might be sold back to Marvel, like selfish child defensive, we'll never ever ever let Spiderman go! Studios like this will ensure we will never see any cross over movies. I hope the films bomb personally so they can go back to a studio that gives a ****
