Hot Toys Star Wars?

[Cap'n Cook]

Yup. Either way (1:6 license or not) the thread should continue spiraling downhill.

I am officially resigning from this and the Indy thread until we get something more concrete.

I already did. Waiting on official info.

If HT is going to do a 1/6 line, I think that the DX line would be best. For Luke it would be the ANH with the farmboy and X-Wing outfit, like the old Hasbro 100th figure one.
Then Han, Leia, Ben, Chewy, R2, 3PO in DX as well. The DX Vader should be the ESB/ROTJ with full detail reveal helmet.

You can have all of this with mms. DX just means the eyes can be moved, which is not much use for the droids

I have no desire for Sideshow's 1/6 SW line to end. They've done a fantastic job with many troopers and aliens that Hot Toys wouldn't even bother with. SSC continuing the line with Hot Toys "upgrading" select core characters would probably be the best of both worlds.

I'm assuming that's exactly what they're doing with Indy and LFL seems to license both Indy and SW pretty parallel to another.

It's not just you, but you all seem to have the same rotten vindictiveness.

I call it the same taste for genuine quality.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

You dislike SS.
I love SS.
I hate you.
You hate me.
I love HT.
HT better than SS.
SS betterer than HT.
You like HT?
I hate HT.
I hate you.

Personally, I love good toys.

 

[ProgMatinee]

i love good toys i can actually afford to buy, especially after dropping $5k on a new furnace the other day.

 

[thenammagazine]

I've said the same before. If I disliked something so much I wouldn't spend time nor money on it. Even if the subject matter was something I liked. There has to be someplace where the same feelings are felt I'd go there. That's just me though.

It's not just you, but you all seem to have the same rotten vindictiveness.

And in a way it would serve some people right who got carried away by one sentence and then felt the need to be rather insulting to Sideshow and the people who enjoy collecting their figures

Can't wait. Got the pies already ready for a Dawn of the Dead pie fight against the HT zombies!

Then I ask again why are you here? If you feel that HT is the only company making quality stuff why spend time here?

Sorry I couldn't resist.

Probably because it is the busiest and most active, first with the info forum on the web for 1/6 scale discussion.

I don't own a single SS piece but this is my forum of choice.


It should really say in the rules when you sign up to not bother if you are interested in HT, or rather you will constantly get berated for doing so by people who don't like them as much.

This is a SW HT Thread..... Question is why the element that dislikes HT and their collectors are here

In the Hot Toys Star Wars thread?

--edit: Damn you, Darkseed --

 

[maskfreak]

Hopefully It's more of a collaboration. Chewie? That would be nice. I don't need anymore re do's of Luke, Stormtroopers etc.

 

[Matt S]

Oh, I'd take a HT Vader, and Stormtrooper.....SS looks decent for sure, but HT would blow em away

All I've seen is a bunch of HT Fanboys dissing Sideshow product in "little peepee syndrome" in an effort to defend the "oh great" HT. It's kinda lame to be a member of a forum called "Sideshow Freaks" and continually run around it dissing the product for which the forum was created. Regardless of what the thread title says, it's all about the words on the banner.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

I am not a fan, but I don't run around dissing them.

Merely responding to 'The Josh'.

Not saying you were, just explaining why there's such a staunch reaction to the likes of OSCORP and his merry band of trolls.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

I presumed you were as you quoted my post, which has no frame of reference really as it was merely answering the question 'why are you here?' posed by 'The Josh'.

Plus, I am a HT Fanboy.

No doubt. Why don't I go into the Marvel Thread, say Wolverine and Spiderman suck...Batman rules, then wonder and _____ because nobody likes me.

I went from being curious at how cool this could be to hoping it never happens just so some of the SS haters can go back to where they came from. Star Wars fans are finicky enough all by themselves. We don't need the DX/MMS crowd whining about movie accurate liver spots on Dooku. Then they charge me $250 for the privilege? I'll be one of the ones buying all your cheap SS guys as you unload them and I'll bet dollars to donuts my collection will look just as cool for 1/2 the price, and I'll have more variety.
