Blah blah blah expression blah blah blah. Enough of that, more of this:

 

[Biojex]

Awesome! a pic of him without the coat. He looks good. Want.


Thanks for posting those Plasmid.

 

[gunm]

Thanks for getting us back on track Plasmid! This a want for me too. Now I just have to figure out a way to get Aldo without exploding my bank account!

 

[dominishin]

Must have. He still needs a glass of milk... especially since the figure is based off of that scene.

 

[Sonic509]

Must have it... Now I need to hunt down Lt. Aldo Raine

[topsnakebite]

lookingg forward to this might preorder see what the funds are like

 

[Doctor Who]

I've just noticed the collar is a tad oversized and pointing outwards.

 

[Hex]

And his hat is WRONG...

 

[Shai]

Bad ass figure

 

[Morbo]

waste of a licence! waste of 2 hours of my life watching the worst fim I've seen for a long time.

 

[dominishin]

And his hat is WRONG...

No, I believe someone in the previous posts has shown that the hat is more correct than that image you have up. Landa has patches, not metal.

 

[Thrustmaster]

I have to say, I'm a bit with Morbo. I'm not getting what's so special and good on the movie? Yes it's a Tarantino etc, but still, I really thought 'wtf' after the movie ended.

And as for the fig. It's a well done figure, headsculpt and everything is top-notch, but I just can't understand how people can put such a character on their shelfs. Especially the pic on the magazine where they're trying to imitate the scene where he murdered the Jewish family who were hiding under the bottom.

It's not an historic character. He's a fictionally character who plays the emotions and attitudes of the Nazis and I'm just not understanding why there should be a figure of such a man. And I'm also not getting what in earth is so funny about this guy in the movie. He was such a disgusting character. Having this figure is like idealising the character or what those idiots have done in the past.

Maybe because I'm grown in Germany, I have this feelings, but I just could never ever put a cruel Nazi figure on my shelf.

 

[dominishin]

Why should there be multiple version of characters such as the Joker on our shelves? He's just as disgusting.

What does it matter if the character is not historic? Are you saying actual, real life, mass murderers would be a better choice for the shelf?

We want Landa because Christolph Waltz played a role brilliantly... not the fact that he kills Jews in the movie.

Herr Landa did commit treason. He said to have co-operated in Operation Kino, which, in my opinion, even though fiction, ranks up with the 20th of July 1944.

He's not cruel, just smart and trying to save his own ass.

I knew it that someone would make the Joker comparisson

The Joker is a Comic character, he is 'alive' in our imaginations. Landa is also a fictional character but he just represent such bastards who acted exactly like that in the past, so those people are not only in our imagination, those people are/were for real. And no I don't mean that better mass murders should be a better choice. I never wrote that mate!

With 'history' figures I mean, when you're a museum or something like that, you're showing some figures of the past who have changed the history etc. Landa is just a moron, practically a nobody. When I was in the cinema and watching this movie, many people laughed what behavior he showed etc, and with this figure which is getting in the merchandising world is just like showing sympathy for such people.

What comes next? The brutally-Nazi-Actionfigure for 5 year old children?

Sorry for opening this discussion here and I don't want to attack anyone who's getting this figure, I just can't understand to support those characters, with merchandising-products.

What are you on about...he was an SS colonel...they don't come much more evil and cruel than Landa. Just because he helped end the war doesn't erase the crimes he already committed. Did you even see the film.

Sorry, but for me it's not smart hunting and letting all the jews being murdered by pointing them out with only his finger.

It was Xenophilius, and he agreed that he was wrong. He wears this hat at the very beginning of the film

But for the rest of the film he wears this hat with metal badges, silver braid, and shiny leather visor.

HT's has made a mix of both hats he wears in the film. The one that comes with the figure should have metal badges and silver braid secured with buttons on both sides.


Interestingly, the hat he wears at the beginning of the film is actually an enlisted mans hat, it's wasn't warn by officers/Colonels.

 

[dominishin]

Ah I see.

I don't see them doing anything about it at this point though.

Haha, yeah, your avatar is too enticing...

Well, this is a high-end collecting realm... I think it's a bit too far to say that this will lead to kids getting Nazi toys.

One can say that there are people just as sick as the Joker in real life... and that the Joker is a character as much as Landa is.
