Hot Toys - TMS051/2 - Mandalorian and Grogu (Season 2)

[davejames]

I thought someone said in a review that they had included relaxed hands this time? Or maybe that was for another recent figure that came out...

 

[El-Vi-Riachi]

Hot Toys Mandalorian V3, only the thigh plate, the knee pad and the relaxed hands were added by me.

Even if the rendering is not 100% accurate on the screen I find that in the right light the rendering is amazing.

Personally I won't touch the weathering of the beskar

The hands custom made or are they out there for sale?

 

[skyler2702]

The relaxed hands come from the Boba Fett which are more open than those sold with the Mandalorian

yep. the new one still doesnt come with fully open hands like boba etc, but the default “relaxed hands” are at least a bit more open / dynamic:

You have to be nuts not to buy this lol

I feel like that with all the Mandos.

Best of luck to the folks at home waiting for the Ultimate Real Beskar The Mandalorian Mandalore the Great Unifier and Grogu™ 1/6 collectible figure from the final season.

What color did you use for the fingers? I've picked up some extra hands to repaint

 

[Captain Jack Sparrow]

I honestly think it's the safest method, I did mine in an evening about 4 hours or so. I just took my time. I'd recommend some latex gloves, the cod cape is a little oily.

Honestly the chrome is so reflective it's hard for it not to capture me taking a photo , I do prefer it clean. Like any sort of chrome lighting plays a massive part on how much it can stand out.

Ahhh, that looks really good!
I think I want to leave at least a little weathering on, just in places where it’s more appropriate. Or I’ll try adding a bit myself.

That last shot is just
I think you single “handedly” just started a trend with those shots.

We probably won't see it until 2025-2026

I fully expect him to paint his armor in season 3.
Even simply for the non-canon reason of more merchandising. It honestly has to just be a given that it’s going to happen at some point, and they’ll have it be a story reason, they’ll put some lore and meaning behind why almost every Mandalorian has their armor painted the way they do.
So he’ll have painted armor and we’ll all get really pissed that we’ll have to buy another version of Mando, but then we’ll all buy it anyway

This already existed in what is now Legends and they lifted "Beskar" from the same source. So it's very plausible.

Clean up my chrome armor pieces to my liking
using Cape cod Metal Polishing Cloths
Also move the hook to holster the DarkSaber to his right hip

If there's anything canon in Star Wars...it's definitely merchandising!

 

[Mondragon]

... If it's there, should likley be on the left towards the back, behind the three thermal detonators.

Also move the hook to holster the DarkSaber to his right hip

You mean correct hip, ...right?
Curious how easy is that to move, it's not sewn or glued on to the belt?

It used what i assume to be fabric glue to glued the hook the belt and it can be easily removed just peel the cover layer of belt off and pull off the hook and glued the hook on the right side of the belt.

Gonna take a wait and see approach, don't know why but I like having origin story figures. And a series ending hasn't always blown me away so I don't always bother. I only own a few IW figs, and only the Cap from EG (2012 version.

I'll be surprised in a good way if the writing quality of Mando keeps up, been disappointed with series endings so often. Am still irritated this series LOL didn't do what I wanted, which would have had Luke show up at the end as a big surprise, vs. now that lost its punch. Bringing Cara back would help a lot.

Besides, if Mando walks off into the sunset, in the end, in theory he'd be in his old battered armor, so we could all save some money, or go cry if you sold the early versions.
