it would be boring without predictions/speculations/bickering/etc...:panic: :lecture

I disagree completely. Prediction and speculation without any sort of reasoning is completely baseless and it only adds confusion and nonsense to what should be a meaningful and fun discussion. Bickering is fine so long as you back yourself up and stick to your guns.
 
A great rule of thumb to follow...IMO can entirely change how some thing is communicated. That said this is a hobby for us collectors and a such it should be first and foremost a fun thing to participate in. We all have opinons and ideas about what or how much or when something is which is totally fine but in theme they are all guesses. If some one agrees fine if someone doesn't fine, just take ones comments for what they are that persons cements and not in any way a knock against what you believe.

If all else fails, you have the ignore button..

:lol

Okay, let me give you my reasoning behind my predicitions Dr. Jones.

1) It will be up for pre-order by Wednesday
Reasoning: Teaser email from Sideshow on Friday. Usually in the past from what I found, teases a figure and is usually up for PO in the next few days.

2) Limited to 3000 pieces
Mark VI Movie Promo Edition was limited to 3000 pieces

3) Price of $220-$250
Mark VI Movie Promo Edition was $190 or so. Iron Man 2 Mark VI was I believe $205 (could be wrong, was not collecting when that figure was released) So, I'm thinking this will be less than the Mark VII (Regular Version) because it has less accessories.

FYI. Name calling and condescending comments directed towards a collector who posts his opinion is completeley rude and childish. So keep your future comments to yourself from now on.
 
In all SERIOUSNESS, you guys need to lighten up and stop taking things so SERIOUS. :slap

By now, except for a few new, slightly less experienced collectors, no one takes you seriously. :wave

What is annoying is that you're posts are stated a fact. AND you've made many guesses. So of course eventually, you'll be right. I said this to you once before and you agreed. Simply add IN MY OPINION or THIS IS WHAT I THINK. And that changes everything.

Of course this is MY OPINION. See that wasn't difficult.

:lecture A lack of a source is a clear assumption that a post from a peer is merely somebody's opinion; thus maybe you took it a weee bit too far and over interpreted...


Oh, almost forgot
"IMO"


:gah:

Then state it as opinion, don't keep giving us random facts about Hot Toys that you have read that all of a sudden qualify you to make exacting predictions. You've done this in multiple threads. Calling you Toystradamus was a joke to get you to lighten up on the "This will be up for preorder by Wednesday" crap, but you took it very defensively.

"By Wednesday at the latest" =/= opinion, thats you stating a fact that people want to know where you got that info from. And considering you weren't collecting when the last one went up, and are still unsure of what the price was, you're not helping your case.

FYI, it was $189.99.
 
I am so confused. I keep checking back on this thread as i see new posts added, but for the last 2-3 pages it's been a bunch of bashing and meaningless posts..oh I forgot to add.. IMHO ...:rotfl...Sorry I had to add that last jab.

Now is there any solid new news and or more pics of this figure??

Next thing you know in-text citations would be part of forum rules... :lol

Nope! Because nobody knows when its going up for pre-order!
 
is it just me, or do the proportions on this battle damaged figure look a lot better than the normal MK VII :dunno

I think its because of the lack of the booster pack ( or whatever it is called) gives it less "bulkyness", but then again the latest mkVii pictures seem to have a shorter neck if that's what your referring too

Was that hard? THANK YOU. That's what I was looking for - some meat to your argument so that people can discuss it. Particularly the part I bolded - I have no idea if its true, but that's an interesting thing to acknowledge.

If you're referring to my Harold Camping comparison I apologize if you took offense.

Next thing you know in-text citations would be part of forum rules... :lol

:lol I'd almost be down for that, but honestly, if people don't give anything to discuss then it just goes round and round and we get nowhere.
 
I'm not gonna lie, that teaser e-mail from last week was ****ed up. I about **** myself when I saw it and realized it arrived like 2 hours before that.
 
As long as soccer fans act like the biggest geeks in the world, us action figure fans will have a long ways to go before we get that embarrassing.
Though try as some might!

Soccer fans = ultimate geeks.....fact!!! ;)

Mulitiple threads??? You be staking me or something???

Yeah I like to make predictions. But whenever I see someone else predict something and they don't put "IMHO" I just know that they are guessing becasuse it's Hot Toys after all and they aren't the best at keeping their customers up to date.

NEVER do I make a condescending joke towards anyone who is simply making a prediction. I either agree-disagree and give them my thoughts-or simply don't reply at all.

So, please from now on do not reply to my posts.
