Re: Hot Toys - MMS353 D16 - CA: Civil War - Mark XLVI Collectible Figure
On spoilers. I'm avoiding anything Uncharted 4 related right now. I won't even 'like' links on Facebook at the moment because then comments start appearing in your feed. It's so hard unless you go into complete darkness. Too much is shown before a movie or game come out. I think there are top level spoils and lower level spoils.
A major spoil to me is a really important detail ruined from the movie/game/tv... Like the twist ending of every single M. Night Shyamalan movie. Obviously I won't post any of those from the Civil War movie. Then there are the detail leaks, which range anything from the coolness factor of the latest Iron Man suit-up (didn't we all want to be suprised by the MkVII suit-up against Loki?) to 'you know who' appearing in the airport scene, which 98% of us all know because of the Lego and Pop Vinyl info leaking. Less is best, but I do think people can get a bit precious about some of the gifs. I'm not sure Scarlet Witch getting her red on in her corset is that much of a spoil.
I also do think though, there is kind of a implied time frame, especially with TV. It really annoys me when I'm posting in a thread about The Walking Dead for instance and someone gets upset because a moment was spoiled for them from 3 seasons ago. Seriously, why are you even in a thread for a show where at least two or three billed cast die a season, and inevitably each season the location changes.. and then get upset for finding out someone died 3 years ago?
I suppose in the case of Civil War, once it's had public release on bluray/dvd, it really is fair game after a few weeks...
No I'm the same. I think it is the onscreen palette vs what the figure has. I actually prefer the figure tones. Given the detail and points of difference between Iron Man and other MCU figures, for the price of shipping a sixth scale to my country, I think I'd rather have the quarter scale 45, than both the sixth scale 45 and 46 added to my collection..

I have to say, after seeing the movie I actually like 46 less than I did before... But I'll still probably get it eventually... 45 is still my favorite armor to date.
