Nice! Congrats on the purchase. How much? Last time I checked Amazon they had one for $900.
Congrats. He's the best figure in existence
Yes one of the best villains in gaming.
He was the best villain Capcom had and they flushed him. I guess M. Bison would be next in line, but Street Fighter never had a thick story to it unlike RE so he would be 3 steps under Wesker.
At least Wesker went out at his peak in RE5. His personality and overall look were the best thing Capcom has produced in a very long time.
Krauser definitely shouldn't of died off as early as he did and should of stuck around for at least two more games.

FIXED
It's too bad about Krauser. His little ending picture from Mercenaries gave me great hope that he'd return...but then Separate Ways seemed to confirm he was dead

That's a sad fact about it since his heart was blown out by Ada. Then again, if Wesker can return I don't see it out of the realm of possibility.
Hopefully he and Wesker return to save the series from the oblivion Capcom has thrown it into

Seriously....
Anyway, it will be good to have Ada next to both my Weskers in a few months 
I really hope this is just the start of a few RE lines... but unless it's Dumb-engers it will be another back burner license.

He also had the dedication/devotion to Umbrella(the ideal) and Wesker, so it would have made a more sense...and been a great idea.

I was really bummed they killed off Krauser in 1 game. I really hope Capcom brings him and Wesker back someday (or do something with the Alex Wesker plot). Simmons and Carla were such a lame villains.

I had recently got this figure, and I was curious if someone knew a good Hot Toys body to replace his basic one with. I feel like it doesn't fill out out his outfit well at all (his shoulder seem to sink in, his chest is weird, and his joints are really loose. Plus his arms are dirtied from the black fabric i guess)

I recently bought Midnight Wesker but his batteries are pretty much dead. I'm wondering if anyone can tell me where the battery case is to replace them, as his instructions were not included (I bought him off eBay).

It's in his neck on the back just below the switch to turn them on. Best way to get to it, is pull the head and neck off.

Ugh, I hate removing the heads of HT figures, it's always so sketchy.
Thank you for letting me know!

What? A new RE5 figure, that's weird. What happened to RE6 Leon and Ada.
At least it's a video game figure even if it is a reprint of an old one with a different jacket

This isn't new. And hot toys is basically riding disney now so we won't get anything for awhile.

People just need to stop looking at hot toys for everything. There are a lot of competitors coming out of the wood work that can easily fill the gap that HT refuses to fill. I'm keeping my eyes on threezero and world box. Threezero nailed it with their Isaac Clarke (now they just need to follow up with DS1 Isaac) and their Mass Effect line is looking pretty damn good. Not to mention their sister company, 3A is doing great things with their Halo line. World box delivered a solid figure with Sub-Zero. If they keep doing what they're doing, delivering quality figures at reasonable prices, they will be getting a lot of my money coming up.
