Add about $30. The direct conversion from HK prices to USD is never the amount we get here in the states. You have to add about $30-$50 onto the HK prices to get the price we'll get.
Hot Toys is using false advertising, and they obviously think it matters otherwise they wouldn't be using this to promote their work. Presumably, some collectors feel the same way. You personally may not care how the sausage is made but others might, and have a right to expect to get what they are told they are paying for IMO. But maybe username is right and they paint a dot on each ear or something.
That's a good point, Rorywan; I had forgotten the official photos of last year's exclusives were actual final product - not prototypes. Bruce probably won't look that good, but I don't think he'll look as Ken-Doll-esque as Rescue Captain America, either. Case in point, final product of Coulson didn't look nearly as soft/shiny/vinyl looking:
I love that they made this version. I love the details like Cap's cheat sheets on the back of the shield for the lyrics.
I hate the unnatural forehead seam, it should look like a piece of sewn on fabric over top, not a plastic piece that juts out. I hate that this figure doesn't have swap out mouth plates for a smiling version when it should. I hate that it doesn't have the salute hand.
Overall, great idea, poor execution. I know it's "just a barebones exclusive", but I think they could have put a little more work into it to make it better. How hard would it have been to give him a lower face with the grin or smile? He never really seems to brood when he's out there in the audience or in the advertisements. The salute and pointing "I Want YOU" hands should have been a no brainer as well.[/QUOTE]
Hence, easy pass.
