Howard Chan - New Years Interview - Iron Man, Batman, BTTF

[BB&WSF]

I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry at the fact he actually wants to do all 42 marks.

It will be actually 84: 42 Plastic and 42 Die Cast!

Bit of a blah-de-blah interview. Translation isn't great but I think the gist of it is Iron Man, Iron Man, Iron Man, Iron Man, Batman Returns 'soon', Iron Man Iron Man Iron Man, Iron Man, Iron Man Iron Man, Iron man, Iron man, Iron man, Back to the future 'soon', Iron Man Iron Man Iron Man.

Exactly! Thank god other companies are stepping up to fill the void that HT is leaving unfulfilled. Not to mention at half the cost.

 

[amvmm]

Nothing about Star Wars...

 

[Rambler]

This interview seems like a copy and paste of his last interview.

 

[Sidious-66]

Eat, Sleep, Talk Bollocks, Repeat springs to mind here.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Eat, make IM dolls, Sleep, make IM dolls, count money, Talk Bollocks, make IM dolls, Repeat springs to mind here.

Fixed.

Wasn't the Batman Returns line supposed to be "announced" around like Christmas 2012?

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Talk is cheap. Hot Toys are expensive. Cheap talk about expensive toys is big c@c@.

 

[Rambler]

 

[Wah]

Yeah, Star Wars, which apparently Chan loves. Not a single mention.

well to be fair, ht doesn't have the star wars license (i know it's been mentioned a zillion times but i'm sure this greatly inhibits their options) sideshow does...secondly he did mention in past interviews they were going to do star wars, but it would be focused around the new movies.

 

[morphosis]

Cant wait for Batman Returns. Hoping they do Catwoman most of all

 

[Bo Shrek]

This interview seems like a copy and paste of his last interview.

And the interview before that.....and the interview before that....And the interview before that....And the interview before that......

 

[Sidious-66]

Fixed.

..

Yeah that is what I wanted to say....honest.

It was the mention of 'Hollywood Masterpiece' that got me most excited, but I guess it might just be a poor translation of Movie Masterpiece. Though I hope it means we might get some classic Hollywood figures from the past. A bit like the old M-Icon range.

Indeed. Bring on 2052!

 

[Croozer]

I'm proud to say that I've never owned a single iron man out of the 40 figures that have passed through my possession. However small or insignificant, I refuse to support that line. It's getting ridiculous at this point how much they are milking it. The movies weren't even that great to warrant such mass production. They should have stopped after the first movie cause the other two are terrible.

 

[DarthTrafford]

As soon as Hot Toys makes the Iron Whiplash and Pepper Potts,I'm done with Iron Man.
I hope we see the next DX Star Wars sooner rather than later.

Only if Anakin is wearing the IM suit.

 

[Wah]

Only if Anakin is wearing the IM suit.

this is probably what happened at a recent hot toys staff meeting:

Howard: what's on the slate for today?

Staff: Iron Man

Hoard: Iron Man! ...anything else?

Staff: nope.

Howard: cool. get back to work. I've got a meeting with the lawyers, we're trying to see if we can change this whole year of the horse thing to the year of iron man and make it official. by the way, would it be inappropriate to post "iron man all day every day or gtfo" on our facebook page? screw it, make it happen!

 

[a-dev]

We're all about to be given a reality check by someone with the very new information which we haven't heard before that Iron Man sells and Hot Toys is a business. How will you respond?
