I'm entirely ok with the glasses they gave him. They're not really a defining feature from the movie and I'd rather them a little thicker than something that will snap attempting to put the on/take them off.
 
I see this thread is back under Aliens & Robots. :lol Hey, why not under Video Games instead? This version of Neo only exists inside the Matrix, which is an elaborate simulation. So he's an idealized avatar of himself, not unlike what you'd create for yourself in an on-line RPG. And the machines are the creators/architects of the game. I really think the thread should be moved. :rotfl

OK, now for a serious question: Does anyone have an idea how much $ Hot Toys has to cough up to get a license like this? Curious how that might factor into their plans for producing more figures besides Neo. I understand it wouldn't make sense to throw more money into the line if Neo doesn't sell (no lectures on sunk costs & ROI are necessary), but it wouldn't seem to be worth their time if all they planned to make was him.

They’re iconic imo, and add to the list of nitpicks for me. If I didn’t already have Iminime Neo they wouldn’t be a dealbreaker though.

HT really need to start moulding specific gun holding hands matched to weapons and stop cheaping out.

The berettas look like noisy crickets in his hands.

Those damn hands suck for holding handguns. The palm is too open :gah:

You're right. Why did no-one mention that...

Any people holding out for a reloaded version:

1. It would be years away.

2. HT would base furthering a line on sales of this. So if you're not ordering you are adding to the potential that further figures will not happen.

My advice is if you love the matrix; buy this, enjoy it, assist with sales and then if HT do a reloaded version you could easily sell and 'downgrade' (in my opinion).

Yeah. Same thing with Ultron. Some people wanted ultimate Ultron and not Ultron Prime but the slow sales of Ultron Prime guaranteed Hot Toys wouldn't make Ultimate Ultron.

''I got that beat...''

The eyes very much look like Keanu Reeves.

The trigger finger hands look suspiciously old-style with the crappy grip.

In the general Matrix license thread before it got merged :D


We agree though. The noisy cricket reference nails it.
 
I love it! Keep this thread moving!

Heck, place a thread in each forum section and have it locked but having a link to this thread.

Everyone will be distracted like with the woman in the red dress...
