New HT M Icon announcement soon

[Rock83]

It most probably will be a Brando. If by the two Oscars HT means best actor awards, here's the list:

Spencer Tracy (1937, 1938)
Fredric March (1932, 1946)
Gary Cooper (1941, 1952)
Marlon Brando (1954, 1972)
Dustin Hoffman (1979, 1988)
Tom Hanks (1993, 1994)
Jack Nicholson (1975, 1997) -also Best Supporting Actor, 1983
Daniel Day-Lewis (1989, 2007)

Brando is the only one who was last seen in a movie in 2006. I hope it's a young Marlon from The Wild One.

I hope we`ll see a Jack Nicholson from the Shining eventually,i would be all over that!

 

[TheObsoleteMan]

Brando from The Wild One would be an automatic buy for me.

Brando from The Wild One would be an automatic buy for me.

Second that! And with his Triumph!

 

[galactiboy]

I would be all over a biker Brando! Hope thats the winner

 

[uscmhicks]

Its Brando...

 

[Doomhammer]

I agree that it will be Brando, but I'm pretty sure they'll reuse the existing older Brando sculpt. Don Vito, anyone?

 

[C-Phan]

Hilary Swank? She's attractive and all that, but none of her characters are that memorable (imo)

Sorry to bump this but I wouldlike to defend Hilary Not a memorable character ? I know she's not Brando or Nicholson but imagine her like this :



Hot Toys knows how to deal with boxer with the Rocky line and it could be a good reason to have a brand new muscular female body.
The new legend will be a male I know, this is pure fantasy to imagine a 1/6 scale Hilary Swank (I just love her), I don't come back on this issue, promised

 

[Rogue Trooper]

Instantly thought Brando but i only want a godfather version of him.

 

[TheObsoleteMan]

I agree that it will be Brando, but I'm pretty sure they'll reuse the existing older Brando sculpt. Don Vito, anyone?

That would also be an automatic buy. I wouldn't be surprised if it's Don Vito, that is his most iconic role.

Sideshow has the Godfather license - so I'm pretty sure when we see a 1/6th Vito Corleone it will be from them.

And the original press release for M Icon hinted that it would have a '50s vibe. That's why I'm pretty sure it's one of the 3 movies mentioned above and a younger version of Brando.

A valid point, but who knows, sideshow might just have decided to let HT in on this. The '50s vibe doesn't exclude the Godfather, does it? I know, I know, it's all hoping.

The '50s vibe was for movies made in that decade, not set in that decade. It's not the Godfather - trust me.

 

[Doomhammer]

It's not the Godfather - trust me.

Argh Dave, you're breaking my heart... at least now I'm prepared...

 

[screamingmetal]

Brando is a good guess, but Tom Hanks was the one who really had the last real roll in 2006. Hot toys has already made a Brando as Jor-El, so he's still the best bet.
If it's the Godfather, then it's an automatic buy. Any other character or just the actor as him self would be a skip.

 

[Mookeylama]

it's Brando from Last Tango in...

eww. never mind. definitely buy a Wild Ones. not sure if i'd describe his last performance in 2006 tho.

 

[Batty]

I know it'll never happen, but I'd buy a Colonel Kurtz version of Brando without doubt.

And Tom Hanks last movie was Charlie Wilson's War.

 

[Darth Waller]

I would love to see Hilary Swank (she won 2 Oscars right ?), but I only dream awake.....

Page 4 needs this picture.

 

[carbo-fation]

I think every page needs this picture.

I'd like to see a young Marlon Brando or even Frank Sinatra.

 

[joo]

Yes, it's Brando from The Wild One, and will be released at June.

What IS that magazine these appear in?All the very first pics have that pink tinge around the edge.
