Hot Toys MMS437 - Episode III ROTS Anakin Skywalker 1/6 Collectible Figure

[Wor-Gar]

Luckily, I'd say it's almost a certainty that there will be KO sculpts of the HT sculpt that are painted with Sith eyes, that you could probably get at places like OSK.

Promise....

 

[Wor-Gar]

I don't get the obsession with the Sith eyes head. He only has them for a short time.

Because if I must tolerate Hayden Christiansen as the face of my favorite villain, then dammit I want him to have evil red eyes and be stern and silent instead of being his usual whiny self. Yippee!

 

[SilverStar17]

Promise....

No. Which is why I said "almost".

They made a KO HT sculpt for BvS Superman with heat vision though. Don't see why they wouldn't do a Sith eyes Anakin one.

cannot wait to get this! i wonder if hot toyss will make an obi wan?

 

[Adam1138]

I'm still on the fence with this figure. On the one hand I think it would be pretty cool to have him next to my HT ANH Vader, but I've given myself an OT only 1/6 collection rule and there are so many OT releases still to surface

 

[NASEDO]

I think TLJ Anakin is coming before an Obi Wan.

That would be funny.

Mmm, imagine that shiny, cheap, see through fabric.

 

[Wor-Gar]

OMG... everyone's wearing gold lame in Star Wars now. It's gone full Dancing with the Star Wars.

I skipped that one on principle of it being Hayden instead of Sebastian Shaw. The awful execution didn't help either. ****in' softgoods at 3.75'' scale

Also the card art sucked. The coins were a cool throwback to power of the force, but those crappy photoshops were terrible. They put Anakin's head on EPIII Obi-Wan's body!

 

[MaulFan]

Sadly I pissed away money on that figure, and long since got rid of it.

A really nice Ep3 Anakin has been hard to come by, just about every Hasbro effort has been meh, the only good option prior to this was Sideshow which still had issues.

 

[DiFabio]

I remember seeing a catalog image of the then new Evolutions three pack from around 2005 and thinking it was going to be the definitive versions of OT Vader, ROTS Anakin and EPII Anakin.

Little did I know there were swivel joints underneath those robes.

I feel your pain. I bought kylo, rey and a first order stormtrooper then said to myself , "NO MORE! OT or nothing!"

I'm going to cave on this at some point but I will fight it as long as I can. lol

What's most disappointing is that Vader and Ep2 Anakin from that set are great, Ep3 was a big miss, lousy joints for articulation and mine, you couldn't tilt the head forward in a natural looking pose, it was tilted back partially looking up which made i worse. The very first Ep3 Anakin figure was the best overall even though it had a floppy arm for action feature.

 

[DiFabio]

He had Dooku's lightsaber too, just like this figure.

Seeing this Anakin and the new TLJ Kyle Ren really makes me hope that Hot Toys makes a Count Dooku. He's a grail like Tarkin used to be.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Would have liked to see Tarkin and Dooku planning evil. Maybe that will happen in the young Obi-Wan movie.

I know they could use CGI to include Tarkin, but including Dooku would be a neat trick, as I believe the story would be about Obi-Wan after going into exile.

In this case I think they should go all in to appease PT fans and just recast McGregor. Which would put the timeline well past Dooku's death.

With that said, did you preorder Annie Skywalker?

If Maul can come back with mech-legs... Dooku can come back with a mech-neck.




Or you could go full EU and say the Dooku in ROTS was a clone. EU loves clones.

You should never go full EU, but if you do... go clone.
