Mine too

I'd really like to see HT do a Barbossa Pirate version, they seem to have stalled on Angelica too, i wonder what's the hold up with so many lines.

They may have bitten off more than they can chew.

I would love an Angelia since I don't have any female 1/6, and Barbossa seems like a no brainer...I missed out on black widow and have seen some pretty great pics here.

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

HT is really dropping the ball on this line, the hold up for the DX Jack release is absurd. I love my POTC figures but I'm pretty much at the stage of not caring if this comes out tomorrow or in 2020 anymore. They should have struck when the movie was hot but instead they just go into hibernation mode and reveal 3 more IM figures.

Whenever I start to feel like that I often get a shipping notice and feel excited all over again. Me, I'm more often concerned with what the Aussie dollar is doing I eventually get charged. A few months back it was around 110 cents. Now it's 95 cents. So for every 100 dollars I could have got in August I'm now having to pay an extra 15 bucks for. Damned those Greeks and the mess they've made of their economy costing me my hard earned dolly money!

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

The economy is pretty crazy and many people are burning their hands.
I pre-order the DX-06 for only one reason as I want to pair up Jack Sparrow with Angelica and til date all we see of Angelica is the "chalices"...???
I hope they do Penelope Cruz justice as she is a beautiful woman and we can form our tag team of male + female pirate display,

Can't wait for Angelica, really looking forward for another POTC female to display as I'm pleased with the way Elizabeth Swann came out

They should release a new Dead Man's Chest pirate outfit Elizabeth IMO
She was a better character than Angelica.

True, Elizabeth has been in the series longer so her character has had more time to develop. I'm not a huge fan of the DMC outfit but I wouldn't complain

I think the DMC outfit is the best because it's the most piratelike. The COTBP outfit is nice, but basically just a dress for the most part of the film.

Anyway I hope we'll see some more of these Pirates soon, and not just another Jack Sparrow. We need more characters.

Very true that outfit is more swash buckler lol. If they did release that I'd hope it would retail very low, like $150 range b/c the outfit is so simple and the accessories would be too I'd imagine.

I'd prefer they visit a different character like Barbossa before they redid Elizabeth, but Angelica will suffice for the time being

Yeah, Barbossa would definitely be awesome!
It would be nice if they announce something other than Iron Man or Predators soon

I'd love for them to make a Tia Dalma figure, but I doubt they ever will.

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

Other than Angelica and Blackbeard, anyone else before Barbossa would feel like a slap in the face from HT. We got all the heroes from the first 3 and 1 of 2 villains, there are only 3 unmade, prominent characters to do.

The only thing I can think of is that HT hasn't acquired the likeness rights to make Barbossa. Fans have been clamoring for him since the beginning of the line, and I assume HT is aware of this. I wouldn't mind a new Davy Jones while we wait

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

Shouldn't be a likeness issue, there are products out there with it.

 

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

Wasn't aware of that. Well in that case, I got nothin'.

Barbossa would with Jack the Monkey, the exclusive could be a skeleton Jack Monkey

And an announcement or news other than Iron Man would reassure customers that Hot Toys cares about other licenses too

Nah they only make Iron Man figs have fun with Hasbro

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

We might get Iron Man Barbossa at least.

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

barbossa looks like a grandpa. that's the reason ht is hesitant. a fig of an old dude, no matter how cool the character is, is risky.

i mean, has ht ever made a fig of an old dude?

- supes' dad
- don vito
- kevin flynn
- odin

they all look like school kids compared to barbossa. maybe barbossa should dye his hair white in the next film, then ht will make the fig for sure.

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

Then make him a DX with a Barbossa regular version, peg leg, and a curse of the black pearl undead skeleton headsculpt with the body underneath the clothes!
