Re: Hot Toys - MMS353 D16 - CA: Civil War - Mark XLVI Collectible Figure
aesthetically i'm liking the newer armors more than the older ones. except for the 43.. i think the 42 looks better because of the color. i'm not the biggest fan of the overall design for that armor. i still like it, but it's lower on the list. so, the 42 with the mostly gold scheme makes it more interesting to me because it's a little more unique. but the 45 and 46 have just blown the rest out of the water, in my opinion of course. they make the older armors look a little more vanilla. i'm not saying that i dislike them, just that i prefer the looks of the newer ones.
i too really like sneaky. i love that it's clearly designed after stealth fighter jets/bombers. that really appeals to me. the only problem with sneaky are the lower legs. i just really dislike the bellbottom look. if the lower legs were different it would be an absolute must-buy. but right now, i think i'm going to skip it unless they also decide to do the disco armor.
i didn't want to go all in on the house party armors. so, the shot in the movie when the armors first show up, it's heartbreaker in the center flanked by starboost and shotgun.. so i picked up both starboost and heartbreaker, and shotgun should arrive next week. if i wanted to expand i would pick up centurion and snapper. i like centurion and all, but i just feel that it didn't translate all that well to figure form. it's weird. i love the way it looks in the movie, but the figure itself just seems a little off and i don't know why. anyways. the pair next to centurion and snapper are sneaky and disco. so, since i like sneaky so much, i'll pick it up if we also get disco (i'm a bit of a stickler for symmetry). or hey, maybe the 4th quarter this year will be lighter than i anticipate and i'll get sneaky anyways.
i wonder how likely disco is. i'm not 100% familiar with it, but i know they have a decent amount of the molding already made.. right?
yeah, but they ended captain america chronologically, didn't they? him waking up not too long before avengers begins.
so, i couldn't see them doing a spider-man movie with it ending prior to civil war. i could've seen that if it was coming out prior to civil war. but not the way it's laid out at this point.
but hey, what do i know?
