Resident Evil 6

[Science Friction]

Most are obsessed with TV Shows/Movies around here especially dipped in nostalgia, much like I am with this franchise. For all the RE fans out there, you've gotta consider how small the slice of our 1/6 community of the entire RE pie is.

Yeah, that's true. Still, it's funny the HT figures command such a premium on the secondary market. I guess they were just really, really limited and doesn't accurately reflect interest.

I think we don't reach enough of the RE fanbase either here. I bet we could drum up more interest if we could just find the people outside of this forum who are interested. Maybe one day I'll learn how to sculpt and put my illustration skills to good use. Then I'll sculpt every character I can. lol.

I've posted my customs on RE fan boards where there is no interest in 1/6 and they think they kick-ass but that's about it.

Such a shame. There is too much division in RE to create fans that'll buy anything (like MGS maybe). I mean, why isn't there more figures from video games. Pickings are generally pretty slim, aside from Street Fighter, Megaman, and Mario; and good figures are few and far between in those properties.

Exactly tiredof seeing wolverine ,batman customs it's good but there to many of them.

 

[Science Friction]

Yeah, same here Krec. I'd at least like to see some other heroes done. I mean, Superman, Green Lantern, Aquaman, Wonder Woman.. This whole Batman craze has gotten out of control. I'm interested in having one Bruce Wayne/Batman and one Wolverine/Logan figure in my collection for the most part, but they are not my priorities. To each their own though, and I'm sure it's good for the hobby somehow.

I've loved Batman since like the age of two and Wolverine/X-Men since five. It wasn't until I was 10-11 that I got into RE, just figured someone ought to show it some love since there were a bajillion Wolverine's and Batman's being customized as is

But then there's mass interest in a character that was only ever in one movie without an established cult following, like say the Crow or Willy Wonka where said one character has become an icon. Take for instance, Daniel-Day Lewis in "There Will Be Blood" released only a couple years ago and has people clamoring for a figure. Sure it received a lot of praise and had the whole awesome "milkshake" bit, but that's like wanting a figure of Andy Dufresne from Shawshank. Great film, but...why? 1/6 fans sure are a weird bunch

Lol for me to buy a custom if has to be unique some people pay those crazy prices for a toy yes weird bunch.

 

[Science Friction]

I'd quote you all, but let me just say I agree instead, lol.

I'm extremely eclectic, no doubt about it. I want 1/6 figures of Ziggy Stardust & Mick Ronson, Rebecca Chambers, and US Agent for example. I mean, just saying my interest knows no bounds, whatever I like gets all mixed together and I'm interested in a lot of things, lol. I wish there was just a little more variety in 1/6 collectibles. More companies and higher quality. How great would it be if there was a company that just made high end 1/6 video game figures? Everyone from RE to King of Fighters to Zelda.

Now bring on my extremely simple, but awesome looking, Jake Muller China figure.

Hot Toys just needs to hire more people!!!

HT please rooted hair on Leon.

Ugh, I hate when people think or make Leon's hair outright blonde or platinum blonde. His hair color, like Chris's, is always changing sure, but it was never that bright. It was red in CG cutscenes in RE2, light/dark brown in-game, then sandy/dark blonde/brown in RE4 and onward. Yet, in Darkside Chronicles it was dark/light brown again. I guess this hair color is more in line with RE6.

Chris on the other hand, red hair in artwork, dark brown in-game and in Code Veronica. Remake makes his hair black, then it's brown in RE5 and RE6. Apparently, his eye color was supposed to be brown as well.

 

[Brandoloneous]

Then of course there's Wesker, Claire, and Steve's hair colors. Like the STARS Jill uniform ending up grey in the final in-game REmake model, we'll just chalk it up to Capcom's creators being color blind.

Id love HT to surprise us with Uroboros Wesker. We always wanted Ada from the RE4 Line then they went on to RE5 and we thought RE 4 was over. So id like a Surprise Uro-Wesker. I think it could make a great centerpiece figure

 

[Henry Morgan*]

I was surprised when they announced Wolverine from last stand, it looks retarded to me, that movie was made years ago.. is almost as old as RE4 wtf

I'm still waiting for Prometheus and Emma Frost from first class..
and Ada

 

[xjamiex]

I bought the RE6 anthology on day 1 when RE6 came out and I've played all the way from RE1 to RE5 (which I beat last night). I finally get to start RE6 tonight, can't wait!

 

[Kiva]

**** Yeah!

They keep wasting time on all these damn jokers and batman with the crappiest suit in the series. Why make another joker? Why make another wolverine when the new movie comes this summer. The only smart things they've done this year make all the avengers team. I don't know why make Phil since he's so bland IMO . But whatever .

They sell! HT wants the $$$$$. Avengers is popular as well.
