you do realize that it could be many factors...zoom on the camera and the angle. The only way you would be able to truly judge size if they were shot side by side and on the same camera using the same zoom.

Are both 12/14 inches. And anyway I wanted to show what were the proportions of the body and not the overall height.
 
Sorry i do not know of a place to buy him in Europe.

I doubt you will be able to do that because the mandibles are opened a little even on the closed mouth version. Even if you sanded down the inside of the bio I think the face would still be too big in the mouth department.

You're right, but I'm going to give it a try if I buy it. If I don't see a good way maybe I'll just do the bio to stand by his side.

Have you tried: www.forbiddenplanet.com
Being part of the EU, you should get a good shipping rate.

Thanks, that's actually the only one I've seen, but was hoping for more places to check. But it seems to me it may be more worth it from bbts.com, even with the possibility (almost certainty) of customs charges.
 
Gone ahead and pre-ordered the closed mouth version on bbts.com, I think it's more worth it because Royal Mail for something of this size and weight sent to Portugal will be around £25 and if the size is too big (which probably is) it has to be sent by Parcel Force, which is about £40 something... so, all things considered, even with customs charges, seems cheaper on bbts.com for me :| .

When this is released, sent and I receive it, I will try to make a bio from Super Sculpey to fit its head. If I don't get a way to make it fit I will just do it to stand by his side. I think it's possible though :) .
 
About the mask gap, I know some ppl are already aware of this, but from my understanding, the mask is NOT one solid piece. It is made up of at least two chunks, which are glued together.
Tankman said in order to fix it, he simply took it apart and re-glued it. That's what I remember him saying, anyway.

There won't be two differently sculpted heads being released. That's just my understanding though. This is why I called it a QC issue earlier, because the amount of gap that will be evident depends on how the head pieces are assembled. Hopefully it won't be too hard to tweak. I don't think people are going to need any "customizing skills" in order to make this small fix.
Should people NEED to make this fix? Nah, they shouldn't, but I don't think it'll be the end of the world.
 
Well I for one love my Hot Toys P1 and P2.

I cannot imagine why I would ever replace them. These Neca ones are really flippen nice but for me don't have the tactile nature of the Hot Toys.
Very curious to see in hand pics.

With them being different scales and HT having greater poseability I don't see anything 'replacing' anything. and once I get baloo's biomask my HT will be as accurate as I need him to be with possible exception of his oversized shoulder cannon....and the permanent problem of his being too small to be true 1/6th. So I will continue to value the HT P1 and P2 in my collection.

Psst. Stick to your character, bro. :wink1:

Hey, so a-dev was just telling me how he was talking to his girlfriend the other day, and...

Yes 'talking' to. Our code for....nah better not say it. :wink1:

Epic posting.

BEST.FILM.EVER. Athough it's more than a film to me, it's a part of life, as Im sure it is to many.

Grab a Blade sig Cent.:yess:

DOOOO EEEEEEEEEEET!

A great movie you can go back to time and time again... and it's filled with one-liners that never get old. Long-live 80's action films.

Aye!!
I am definitely going for those Balloo or Tylerdurden masks too.
