Soosoo Toys Vampire Hunter (Blade from Blade Trinity)

[agonistes86]

Just wanted to add a +1 to the "where the hell is Blade 1" comments. There are so many third party companies nowadays, and still nobody has made a version from the first movie. I guess it's just a matter of time, I just wish that would be rather sooner than later.

To quote myself from 14 years ago horror), back when the original HT Blade II was announced:

And while the outfit looks great, I'm still disappointed they didn't make a Blade I version, I much prefer that outfit. While the difference might not be important to most, I much prefer the vest from Blade I, and I prefer his coat to be completely black, I just don't like the red liner, doesn't fit to the character IMO.

It's almost like everyone assumes someone else will make it so what happens is no one makes it.. then there's a period of time when everyone is thinking maybe we should make it since no one has after all this time.. then all of a sudden we have 10 options

I honestly wouldn't even mind that. The more options, the better.

Blade is my most wanted 1:6 now. Pretty much every character I want has been made now, except for him. But since his costume details, like the vest buckles, are so specific, it's hard to customize him.

Why did they only release one pic? Is that typical for them?

For a tease, yes.

Well, at least this will pair nicely with Abigail.

 

[Raleig.h]

3 of some of my most wanted figures. Tired of this MCU crap I want that late 90s early 2000s goodness

I already have the present toys version, basically just for the leather clothes to go with my original Hot Toys version. I am good.

It's not even a comparison, soosoo Blade looks PERFECT.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Looks fantastic. Would way prefer Blade 1 version but that's a great set.

Love that the teeth look pronounced like they did on Wesley in the films. Goes to show how well designed the character was throughout the trilogy too, from tattoos to hair to weaponry and costume.

 

[vspectra]

Boggles my mind they went with 3 instead of 1 Blade design.

 

[Triplesnake]

Agree, it looks good. Shame that they go with the third movie and I hate that movie.

Easier to mold lift the HT Blade 2 to create a Blade 3 than to create a Blade 1. Although many of the same parts from HT Blade 2 would also translate over to Blade 1.

If you own HT Blade 2, then you don't even need a whole well done figure, just a well done vest, shotgun and submachine gun from Blade 1. The equipment in Blade 1 was more functional and looked more practical. The vests in 2 and 3 make no sense at all.

At this point, why not DAM Gangster Kingdom. They've just made a quasi John Wick, what's stopping them from making a quasi Blade 1.

I agree with you that it makes no sense at all. A well done knockoff Blade 1 would sell out. There are some figures you know will sell out. Like when Art Figures did the Punisher War Zone figure. That was a no doubt fast sell out figure.

Both look great, but I was given on choice, and now that the Present Toys has been released, I would wait for the Soosoo Toys version.

 

[BACON!]

I would love to see a company like Topo just produce the outfit from Blade 1 and leave the rest of the kitbashing to us

 

[Furyan]

Think I'ma swoop this guy up outta the two new offerings,already have HT Blade so a representation of the 3rd movie version is warranted despite the movie itself being subpar.

 

[HMC117]

Have Soosoo given any updates on this? I'm selling my present toys Blade. It was a good figure, but far from perfect. The likeness wasn't 100%, the trench coat looks really awkward in a lot of poses, the proportions are off, etc. From the soosoo prototype, and soosoo toys in general, I think this figure is gonna blow it out of the water.

 

[Furyan]

Still waiting need some more Blade assp

Same! I actually just rewatched Blade 2 again tonight and it really highlighted the major problems I had with the Present toys figure - the proportions and the coat. The body was way too small and puny for the head, and the coat didn't hang right at all. Really threw the whole figure off for me. I believe he wasn't wearing leather pants in Blade 2 either, it looks like black cargo pants. I hope and believe Soosoo will make the definitive Blade figure so far. Blade Trinity is the worst Blade movie but he still looks cool as hell in it.
