Hot Toys - MMS466 - The Matrix - Neo Collectible Figure

Re: Hot Toys Acquires The Matrix License

This Smith looks as he was assembled from the parts (agent's?) and sculpt (Red Scull one) that were already produced.

Looks like very much that, first stage designs to go with the announcement.

Really surprised they are showing off first designs so soon. Far cry from the Prometheus days.
Hope they do the twins and Persephone, though I'd imagine getting Monica Belluci to sign off on likeness rights would be problematic.

Re: Hot Toys Acquires The Matrix License

Clearly these are very early prototypes--that's definitely a Red Skull head--you can tell from the haircut.

I'll almost certainly buy both. The only thing that might change that is if Reloaded versions come out. Although Reloaded was an inferior film, the looks for Neo and Smith are more appealing to me. That would be a tough call.

Yes also prefer the reloaded look but if this one has no exposed joints I will buy it since I am not sure Hot Toys will make two versions of this.

Awesome to hear there will finally be some Matrix figures. That Iconic Toys Neo looked great, so I was disappointed that was never released. Thankfully Hot Toys has picked it up and not Star Ace lmao

If they make Morpheus with his chair I might be tempted but I'm not 100% sold on jumping into this license just yet.

Totally agree. That chair would look awesome. But I'm also holding back here. Have expanded out enough from Star Wars with avengers and DC.

Re: Hot Toys The Matrix 1/6 scale figures

Looks like the other matrix thread is winning. Time to move over there I think.

That's Agent Smith sculpt should be placeholder. His hair is not that short.

Re: Hot Toys Acquires The Matrix License

Those two look great so far! These are early stages of the figures im sure HT will refine them. Bring on Trinity

Re: Hot Toys Acquires The Matrix License

Both bought. Bring on Morpheus.

Re: Hot Toys Acquires The Matrix License

Though Neo from the rescue scene is cool, sequels' Neo is what I want. Smith does not matter which version it is as the only difference I notice is the earpiece.

I will be surprised of they do too many characters. Maybe Morpheus and even less Trinity.

Re: Hot Toys Acquires The Matrix License

Even less Trinity? Shes a major character.

Re: Hot Toys Acquires The Matrix License

A decent start but definitely need to be properly redone. Not even close to what I want to see for final product. But cool that they had something to show.

Agent Smith? Damn, I wanted the other agent...

Yea hmm indeed. Do we even know if these are indeed official pictures that HTs released? Seems awful quick from announcement to already releasing prototype pics.

Both are garbage headsculpts and both sunglasses are wrong.

Smith's sculpt looks fine, it's our good ol' Red Skull.

Maybe it's just a placeholder, but I'd be fine witht them usin' that same sculpt.
Suit looks like the one from their Coulson... pretty meh.

Glasses from sequels tho... That's really wierd.

But he didn't have exaggerated eyebrows in Matrix...

No clue why they used the Reloaded glasses either. They should be more rectangle.

Reloaded Neo is best Neo.

Because it's clearly a reloaded Smith... which is unfortunate the Smith from the first movie had a green suit.

These have to be the worst things I've seen from Hot toys since the Crow. I seriously hope that the suit and sculpt are placeholders for Smith and that almost everything gets reworked on Neo too.

There have been over a decade of very good customs, private runs and mass produced knock off Matrix items that have set the bar high. Hot toys needs to be a bar raiser and here they are falling short of the oodles of stuff that's already out there even if it is commendable they went after a less of the moment license.

This is why I'm getting Crow flashbacks...

Re: Hot Toys Acquires The Matrix License

It's not clearly the Reloaded Smith if he's got an ear piece...
