Hot Toys POTC Cannibal King Jack Sparrow and Throne

[EXOTICLEX]

Thats what I keep telling myself. Im hoping thats the deal. I really dont want to start seeing these HT DXs coming in at $260+ a pop. Thats a little insane.

I still have the CK Jack on display, but he seems too tall ever since the DX06. Recently I put the CK head on the DX06 body, and the proportions aren't right. Please Hot Toys, we still need this announced and highly anticipated re-do, and throne.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

I guess this was abandoned. No news since July 2011 debut.

Pah.

I keep feeling like as soon as I buy the first version of Cannibal jack they'll announce the new and I'll be SOL

You can never have too much Jack....the first Cannibal one is fantastic...looks really like Depp, even though the first Regular Jack looks nothing like him at all....

Since they did that iron man wotsit i can see them selling this throne by itself. They'd be better to have a companion figure up for order at the same time though

 

[Hydeous]

I dont think they are planning to release this, when their distributors still have plenty of DX06 in stock right now.

 

[Fang]

Maybe they're waiting for the next POTC film to be released so there's renewed interest in these figs again. Then they'll sell the throne with a newer Jack or another new character from the next film

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

I dont think they are planning to release this, when their distributors still have plenty of DX05 in stock right now.

That doesn't mean anything anymore, they put up Scar despite having 5 or so Predators still in-stock.

Thats a long ways off, why bother making the proto this early?

Or maybe like the true artists they are, they get excited about making something (like the CK throne)... And soon another license comes up and they get excited to make stuff for that one, and their passion for creating the Throne for us fizzles out.

If this is true and it's never released, then that would be horrible because its obviously something a lot of us are interested in owning. Myself included

Apples and oranges man. It's like saying Burton Batman and Nolan Batman are the same while it's still the same Johnny Depp as Sparrow. There are a lot of collectors who missed out on the original AVP predators.

Yea I agree that the original CK Jack looks great but I certainly can have enough Jacks. I can have tons of Depp's characters as a whole but enough of Jack if that makes sense. I just want one Jack from each film except the CK Jack would suffice for both DMC and AWE

What does Indy have to do with Jack

I mean DX 06

 

[Gipetto0812]

Oh ok but still as far as I know, DX 06 is sold out at most of the US retailers

 

[Hydeous]

Aren't they available below retail in most eBay auctions though? Last time I checked on SS there's still plenty of these

 

[Gipetto0812]

Last I checked for SS website, only 1/6 sparrow they have is the UU sparrow. Idk about eBay though b/c I don't go to ebay for figures anymore

 

[Rzeznikk]

Not sure if I want or need this one anymore. I have two DX06s that are more than enough for my 1:6 displays/needs. Although DMC is my Favorite film of the series and Id likely cave after seeing the full reveal, but right now Im feeling pretty "meh" about this now.

What Id really LOVE is if HT or EB do a 1:4 version. Now thats something I could get really excited for!

 

[Gipetto0812]

I've been hoping EB to do a 1/4 Sparrow for longest time ever since they did the UU figure. The sculpt and paint on it is just incredible

 

[Jokes & Bats]

What was the point of them teasing this figure and then not following it up - not even a second teaser pic. It's like HT have forgotten about it - whereas, we have Iron Men and Jokers coming out of our ears. It has been a year and a half since they did. Pretty lame.
