The costume is fairly different, different jacket, vest and shirt, and his hair wasn't in a ponytail after cannibal island, so it'd be a new head too.

Yeah would be a cool one,for me,all i need now is a Barbossa and im satisfied,i only have the 2 Jacks and Davy Jones,have a Will on the way,but i think ill keep it MIB as he was never a must for me,we`ll see when it arrives.

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

As far as movie series and collecting things from them, I'd rank POTC and Rambo as a tie for #2 with me after Star Wars, so I'm game for more figures.

Of what could be made from the trilogy, this would be my wish list.

CURSE OF THE BLACK PEARL

Captain Jack Sparrow
Captain Barbossa
Elizabeth Swann - Pirate Cave dress with island undergarment as seen marooned with Jack

DEAD MAN'S CHEST

Will Turner
Elizabeth Swann - Pirate garbs with hair down
Bootstrap Bill Turner
Gibbs

AT WORLD'S END

Elizabeth Swann - Pirate garbs post-Singapore, pre-Sao Feng outfit

Not likely, but desirable, Ghost Sparrow and Barbossa 2-Pack

And I'd love to see the Aztec gold chest made, perhaps even and environment and have the whole hill it sits atop in the cave.

Put the Ghost Sparrow and Ghost Barbossa 2 pack under COTBP

I want Barbossa,i can MAYBE stretch for a DMC Will,but nothing else.

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

You are a hardcore fan arent you?

Not as hardcore as most, but I definitely became engrossed in the world and came to love most of the characters.

I'm a bit bummed though we haven't gotten a Cursed Jack and Hector atleast.

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

Well, I split them from the group because the others are easily done, but the skeleton versions could take more work and effort than they'd feel is worth putting in.

 

[Spliff]

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

I wouldn't split them cos for me, those were some defining moments in the film. In fact, I consider finding out Jack was cursed one of his defining moments. Right there behind the end of DMC(well his end, not the end end ).

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

The skeleton incarnations are key, but they're by no means simple either and I'm just uncertain as to what extent of complicity HT is willing to go in this line. The Endoskelton and pieces like that have an almost certainty of good sales based on how those lines do, but I'm not sure if POTC is successful enough to warrant specialty figures like skeleton Jack and Barbossa.

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

i really only want a barbossa. and ill still buy any and every version of captain jack sparrow. if they make a swann and will that really impress me i may jump on that too.

 

[MaulFan]

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

I really hope they do a COTBP Jack Sparrow so we can get 1, maybe 2 more Jack headsculpts and a chance for HT to redeem itself by making the jacket in the right color and material.

 

[The Craw]

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

i want the next headsculpt to be an open mouth grin showing his teeth. like that one promo shot. you know the one.

 

[MaulFan]

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

That would be a good one, give 2 headsculpts, that smirk one, and then add his surprised, open mouth face for another fun one, like when he's swinging from the crane after fleeing Norrington's men and they're shooting at him or any time he gets scared and surprised haha.

 

[The Craw]

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

they should include more hand sculpts as well. so you can get those weird ass finger gestures he does. that would be great.

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

We also need his short and long telescopes.

If there wasn't a good sales base I don't think we would have gotten anything after the first Jack.

 

[icruise]

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

Yeah, I would think if there's a base for Cannibal Jack, there would be one for skeleton Jack and Barbosa. I mean, they're skeleton pirates! Hello!

Of course you can only go back to the well so many times before people start to tire of different versions of the same characters. If I had to choose, I'd take the major characters that they haven't done before going with something like this.

 

[Darklord Dave]

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

I have no real interest in the skeleton versions - they would have to be engineered very differently and I don't think it's worth it to HT.

I think Barbossa and a pirate Elizabeth are the least we'll get. And I'm hoping for all the pirate kings and Commodore and pirate Norrington.

 

[icruise]

Re: Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Thread

It seems pretty unlikely that they would make the pirate kings, no?
