Hot Toys - VGM08 - Bio Hazard 5 - 1:6 Albert Wesker (Midnight version)

I think the fact they are great for parts hasn't helped either. So instead of some lingering around, they get parted out from various places and people. Chris and Wesker could probably benefit from a rerelease, but I doubt it this late in the game. I think it would just be wiser to get a full RE license and starting making more characters and variants (Code Veronica Chris and Wesker maybe?). I'd love to see HT tackle Hunters, Tyrant, Nemesis, etc.

yes, HT needs to tackle some of the RE monsters. I was hopin ,since they have the RE5 license and all, that we'd get an RE5 Licker in the same style as their Alien figures (rubber body and what not). If they had the full RE license...oh man...the possibilities.

This. With Chris especially. On ebay, that's pretty much all I saw of him plus a few BSAA and STARS Chris'.

A full RE lisence would be awesome though (but bad for my wallet and bank account).

Finally got around to taking a quick pic of my three Weskers

Awesome looking weskers you have there. My favorite RE4 wesker since i already have midnight. That wesker in sitting position reminds me of RE4.

Wow nice job BM!

 

[Darth_Fatso]

Agreed, very nice. And when did Wesker win an Oscar?

 

[Buttmunch]

For his great performance in RE1! "Wow! What a mansion!" How could dialogue delivered like that not win?

Seriously though, that just my Godfather set up. Its just a nice backdrop for figures. So I got that little Oscar next to him and the DX Joker since they both are Oscar performances.

 

[darkknight]

So which version do you like better? Midnight or STARS?

 

[Biojex]

I like the chair Wesker is sitting in. did you find it on ebay?

 

[Buttmunch]

I actually got the Chair from Storerooms. It looks excactly like the ones we have at work so I thought it would be kind of funny to have a minature of it. But it works great for Wesker.

Just paid for Midnight Wesker...can't wait! Going broke now as I also paid for DX Batman and Joker. Can't believe I've been a figure guy for such a long time but these are my first real figures. How was I never aware of these 1:6 figures??

Came in today - my second Hot Toys figure (DX01 Joker came on Saturday)!

Pictures via crappy digital camera. Anyways, you guys all know pictures simply don't do justice, they are just for saying "Yes! I finally got him too!"

 

[Biojex]

[Darth_Fatso]

Quick question here, and Im sorry if it's already been answered. I looked through some of the forums, but didn't find anything. Does anyone know how to make the eyes glow COMPLETELY RED instead of the cat eyes? Or are there two different heads? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

 

[Buttmunch]

The red eyes were only on the prototype, they fixed them to the more accurate cat eyes. There are no red eye figures and no way to get the figure to do it.

thanks! bummer. I painted the hair black and was toying with making it a superman head.

Just ordered me a Midnight Wesker on ebay! Here's hoping I get it though as the last 2 time I've delt with ebay have been unpleasent.
