While I was regretting this preorder when I saw the Soosoo version, I am not regretting it anymore. Looks awesome

PT is very hit or miss but they did really good with this one.

Yeah, quality looks as good as the prototype. I dunno if it's the lighting but it actually looks closer to Wesley now after putting the glasses on him compared to the proto. Did a quick photoshop

Definitley looks really good. Not as good as Soosoo, because that version looks PERFECT (at least in the proto) and comes with an amazing second headsculpt. But I love Blade so much that I'm happy to have him from more than one film. The days of Hot Toys ancient Blade II figure selling for ridiculous amounts on ebay will now be long gone.

Looks pretty good. I dont plan on replacing my Hot Toys version but the clothes will be likely used.

Got to be honest I prefer the Present version at the moment because we have production pics.

If soosoo holds up to proto I think they both look ok

SooSoo always end up looking like the proto in my experience. And that proto is hot toys level

Rewatched Blade 3 and it's so bad Terrible Dracula, poor action scenes, dunno why Goyer thought Blade needed sidekicks who took up too much screentime.

The first 2 Blades are actually way underrated critically.

Yeah, I may have to double-dip along with owning HT's.
Man, I so want that first outfit.

I think thats because his main star, Mr Snipes, proceeded to completely lose his ******* mind just before/during filming.

Doesnt really forgive the ****** story [killing Whistler again, seriously], poor action or crappy Dracula [Dominic Purcell as Dracula is a joke and the character had literally nothing in common with Dracula in either Marvel, literature or folklore] but it at least explains why Blade is an extra in his own movie.

Actually, I'm pretty sure Snipes lost his mind and acted like an @sshole because he knew Goyer was f@cking up his franchise. The story was written before they began to film and its been said that Snipes was heavily against sidelining Blade in his own movie. I doubt him and Kristofferson were thrilled about Whistler being killed off 15 minutes in either.

No wonder Snipes was pissed. The faults of the movie are on Goyer's shoulders. Blade 1 and 2 are superior in every way.

Got my invoice from Kghobby

 

[AStur08]

Goyer wrote the first films. He only directed the third after Snipes protested the original attached director. Snipes was extremely unprofessional. Everyone on that film said Snipes was the problem and acted like a crazy, often violent drama queen from start to finish. Whatever problems existed he exacerbated tenfold, and it’s a miracle the film at least has some legit entertaining moments. Even if the script wasn’t to his liking, he actively set about sabotaging the careers of everyone trying to make and release the best film they could under the circumstances.
