Interesting.

I’d put my money on Black Widow to be honest unless HT was able to find a way to get around the $1k minimum threshold for Phoenix Joker collectibles

Iron spidey why

Iron spidey why

Because they put hair on everything now.

If true, then it was BS info in the inart thread that the director only wanted Phoenix Joker figures to be high value collectors items and that's why Inart had to combo their sets to sell for $1000+

 

[Cap'n Cook]

doesn’t necessarily mean artisan all three.

How so? HT could be planning a 2 in 1 and/or diorama to get the price north of the required $1k threshold.

Tbf I'd rather see a Artisan Doc brown with a better sculpt or a Barbossa to go with Jack.

Very interesting to see companies just battling each other on the same figures because they can't be original.

Can't wait for the Terminator War in 2025 between InArt and Hot Toys.

It’s not BS. That’s been the case since well before InArt got the license to do the figures and was mentioned back then around the time of the movie release. All previous Phoenix Joker collectibles from other companies have been over $1k be it Prime 1, Queen Studios, JND, or Iron Studios b/c they all had to be within that mandate.

InArt are doing T1 and T2 figures?

 

[Cap'n Cook]

InArt are doing T1 and T2 figures?

Hasn’t been confirmed which yet but yes they are.

 

[Johnny Utah]

I'd be happy with even an unpainted T2 T-800 sculpt from InArt at SDCC.

 

[GaryPool]

Easy pass. JND and Inarts are doing it better.

 

[Scout Trooper]

Hmmm

 

[Bleah]

Bet they still can't get Scarlett's likeness down for this rumored release.

As for HT Phoenix, per the usual PO fake line queue BS people have to go through sideshow, the number will probably be even less than the usual 3000 or so units. Although, HT has a chance to offer a better variety if they're doing the multiple Jokers like what Inart did.

I mean tbf dont spiders have tiny hairs all over?

The wording does not necessarily mean artisan for all three figures.

Decided to skip on this one in favor of the inevitable BR Artisan version.
The paint scheme and brown hair are nothing for me.
