Hot Toys - X-Men Days of Future Past?

[PopCollector]

I was joking, but HT SW line is going to kill it.

Shhhh let the product speak for itself then we can let them know with pics of our new figures actually I wanted the SS starwars line but missed most of the figures so its good to be able to get new versions of stuff that needed new sculpts anyways.

I don't know what it ( that pic with the fig, USB, bag ect) says, but can make out enough. It's like first place prize,(wolverine) second place( USB drive) and so on. It's an ad for a raffle where those are the prizes, not a hot toys ad. Drawing to be either held 11/30/2014 or entries submitted by that date. As I said, not fluent but know a little.

The ad translation was discussed earlier in the thread... It's a lucky draw contest and they will be giving away 5 of those Wolverines... That sparked some debate as to whether or not that means they are only ever making 5 and not releasing it at all besides that (which quite a few people on here believe) or if this just means there are 5 to giveaway for pre-release and the normal release will come later (which I believe)... Either way nobody knows but Hot Toys at the moment, So all we can do is wait for official announcement of some sort and hope it doesn't fall to HT purgatory like First Class Xavier.

Well did anyone discuss how the headsculpt looks a awful lot like the the previous wolverine release, maybe they just added grey hair? If thats the case then the only new thing is the armor, and I can't tell if its a actual outfit or just sculpted armor.

I don't see any grey in his hair at all in those pictures, but chances are it's just a prototype on the ads... Either that or it really is a very limited release, in which case they probably just used an old HS.

Not going to happen.....keep dreamin guys!

I don't see why they wouldn't though I would of bought Xavier and this Wolverine. I think they are using a old sculpt and maybe the 5 are just like prototypes they were going to use to show off the figure but are not going to release, just like Xavier.

I can't see them designing and making the outfit for just five figures total. The draw is simply that a draw for a free figure whereas the rest of us will have to pay for it when mass released

Showing off a Xavier and This and not letting us buying it is just a kick in the nuts. If they aren't going to make any for mass release then they need to Not show us the damn figures

You'll get Jackman, and that's pretty much it until the next film unless there's a modern miracle.

Pity it's the WRONG Logan look.

Did they officially cancel the Xavier? Or did it die off for a while like Arkham Batman?

True although I like the outfit all he did in it was lay down on a table with it

Officially cancelled it.

I was under the impression it just fizzled out while HT tried to get likeness rights.

Yeah, last time Howard talked about that stuff I believe he led folks to think that it could still happen. But it won't.

textbook way of wording "it ain't happening, so forget it".
