1/6 Hot Toys - TMS 008 - The Mandalorian: Bounty Hunter Droid IG-11 Collectible Figure

[Mike86]

Honestly a bit surprised that this is coming soon. Thought it would be delayed. Looking forward to seeing in-hand pictures.

It is delayed, was supposed to ship by Q4

Right, but by Hot Toys standards to have it originally due in quarter four and for them to show it as an upcoming release (which means it should be out sometime in the next couple months or so) isn?t that bad. Especially when you consider it?s a more unique figure versus a lot of their output.

Looks like they added the self destruct section in this chest

Yes. They added the self destruct mechanism

Good eye, that's awesome! I was really hoping they'd add that to really complete the figure. Other than a tea tray haha.

Did they give him the same old footprint base? For a droid with rectangular feet

One droid step forward, two human steps back.

SSC delay notice this morning, bumped to February.

4 delay notices this morning all different companies. Things must be really messed up production or shipping.

The ports pretty much everywhere are a mess right now.

Did you get a delay email or did they just bump back a flex payment? There is difference. Sometimes figures still ship shortly after.

Four of these kinds of e-mails:

Our FlexPay schedules are designed to coincide with the item's arrival into our warehouse, so that the final payment is charged and your item ships out to you as soon as we take possession of it. However, delays do occur periodically in production or transport schedules that require us to alter your original payment plan...

Which I assume means either none - or not enough IG-11s are arriving in January. For me also for ASMUS Aragorn...final payments now due in February.

Am not that upset...something to look forward to, Mando V1 finally having a companion piece.

I am hesitating between buying ig11 or heavy infantry ..... I have the old Mandalorian, what do you think ? I need help!

Decisions like that I always say wait a week. Picture your shelves a year from now. You will know when you are calm and at peace

There's a case for both. Easiest IMO is that IG-11 has more screen time and had more notable scenes with Mando. So maybe Heavy Gunner shows up later but dont think Favreau will give himself a lot of screen time, ever.

But Heavy Gunner is really badass. Ultimately get what u really like, or it will be wasting funds and shelf space.

IG-11, won't go wrong paring the 2 of them. I'm doing the same.

IG-11. Unique design compared to yet another Mandalorian figure. (unless you want to collect ALL of the Mandalorian characters.)

IG-11 hands down. Classic Star Wars design, unique shelf presence.

If I wasn?t all in on the Mando line, and had to choose it?d definitely be IG-11. He can also take place of IG-88. Just overall a great character from Mando

 

[DarkChocobi]

Get both assuming if you're not so financially strapped. Robust Mando + Beskar Din + IG-11 definitely a killer set up in shelf as major representatives from SS1.

Sigh, what I would have given to see these two team up for an entire season, with IG almost being the Chewie to Mando's Han. Even though I obviously realize that would have been far too expensive for them to pull off on a TV budget.
