Thanks for the heads up CF!


I would kill for a good Chloe btw!

 

[Wor-Gar]

This is the Jack I think of now... with that bag hanging like that. Cool!

 

[carbo-fation]

Looks good but too bad it's from Medicom. They have short figures!

 

[Seth Gecko]

how is 11.8 inches short lol.?
.2 is not even noticeable to the naked eye.

be glad it's from medicom they got the best quality IMO.

but alas i'm not a big 24 fan so enjoy to those that are fans.

 

[pjam]

Keifer is short.

he's real short actually, around 5 ft 7

 

[dekadentdave]

carbon-fation,

A thought came to mind about the scale size on 1:6 scale figure market, West verses East. Remember that that the U.S. still measures in “standard/inch” verses the rest of the world measures’ using the, “metric system”.

A 1/6 scale averages in about 12 inches in height in the standard/inch yet if you convert in that, same/average 1/6 scale figure using the metric system, millimeter (mm). The conversion would be, 1 inch = 25.4mm. This means 11.8 inches tall. And depending on the subject these 1/6 scale figures could be larger than 12 inches in height or smaller, i.e. Medicom's Darth Vader or Wolverine (comic version), Hot Toys Predator

Just a thought.

Be Well,

Ben

Jack looks pretty cool, and this would be my preferred version as well. Maybe with Sideshow promoting that 24 book is an indication they'll carry this figure
I can at least hope right?!?

 

[MisterToyNYC]

Wow! I gotta have one. Even if it looks nothing like Kiefer Sutherland!

Eric

 

[dekadentdave]

That looks like Kiefer to me. That's THE Bauer figure to have.

I hate to refute your arguement with a cliche but: math is universal.

One sixth of a Kiefer Sutherland is gonna be one sixth no matter what system your measuring stick is calibrated to.

 

[Ven]

how do you know sideshow is correct then? everybody claims that it is. Truth is no company has the right to call it "1/6th" scale.

 

[galactiboy]

I could almost go along with the size is relative argument... but, then why are the comic figures closer to 12"=1/6 than the movie figures? It doesn't make much sense how my Spiderman figures towers over Darth Vader. And as was said earlier, 1/6 is 1/6 no matter what the mean height of your population is.

But in reality, the whole scale issue isn't a big deal, just buy what you like and don't feel the compulsion for everyone else to agree with you. I love my Medicom and Sideshow figures equally for both their strengths and short-comings

 

[Ven]

like galactiboy said... nevertheless I'm getting it because I like it. hehe I can't wait for this baby!
