^ it's true. And I've said it before I even think they scrapped the apocalypse figure, I'm getting the vibe I hope I'm wrong.

You're wrong. They're not done with BvS yet. They're just blowing their entire CIVIL WAR wad at one time.

And we'll get at least 2-3 figures from Suicide Squad, unless the movie is a total bust in which case they'd probably just do whichever they officially announce first. But I have a feeling it won't be the doom and gloom some are predicting in here.

Good I'm glad then. Hopefully maybe they'll get spiderman out of the way then give us apocalypse batman and the batmobile.

Why are we assuming Hot Toys won't go all-in with Suicide Squad? They made all the GOTG, and those were a bunch of total no-names prior to the movie.

Harley Quinn, Joker, Killer Croc and Deadshot are all well-known names. And even Boomerang and Katana have their fans. It's really only El Diablo that all the merchandisers have forsaken.

Yes, Hot Toys have only shown off four BvS characters--but other than Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman, who else really was there to market? Lois and Martha Kent? LOL.

Doomsday would have required a huge and totally unique mold, and the design for him wasn't even finalized until a couple months ago. Even if Hot Toys wanted to, I doubt they could have a Doomsday figure ready to show off yet.

DC is giving a huge push to Suicide Squad, and I think it's far too early to write off HT's line.

I don't think they'll do them all. Deadpool was a huge hit. They could easily have sold Colossus and the X-Men girl (can't remember her cool name), maybe they are in the pipe now, maybe not. I think they do Joker and Harley and Deadshot and maybe Croc. If the film is a hit, they might do more. I hope they do them all...

 

[IrishJedi]

Katana is a character (and figure) that might be pretty popular in Asia. Don't discount her, either.

Really, Slipknot and Rick Flagg are the 2 that I'd be shocked to see get made by Hot Toys. None of the others would surprise me, though.

The awkward moment when Slipknot is left out of a post talking about how all of the SS should be made

Negasonic Teenage Warhead.

As for Deadpool I wouldn't count figures out of that one yet. I don't think anyone expected it to be as big of a hit as it was merchandisers included. I agree with you and wouldn't be shocked if we didn't see Colossus and NTW coming too, maybe even Francis.

 

[Futurion]

Meh Francis. Angel FTW!

 

[IrishJedi]

Don't forget... Marvel isn't really keen on licensing X-MEN stuff these days.

 

[The Mike]

That's true but given that (if the rumors hold any weight) that the Deadpool creative team wants him in the MCU and The Russo Brothers have said they'd love to have Deadpool interact with the MCU character this could be a different story. Not to mention that rumors are that The Inhumans was pulled because Ike Perlmutter has input on the TV side only now and not film side and it was his pet project that changes things. Ike is the one who has it out for 20th Century Fox, refusing to support anything they've got, whereas it doesn't seem like Feige and Perlmutter like each other so much, I wouldn't be shocked if we didn't see it happen just out of spite.

Either way, HT will try to just make money, DP right now is money so I wouldn't be shocked to see who and what they could get out of this and I expect a lot from Deadpool 2.

Guardians of Galaxy is Marvel, and unless you're new to HT, you'd know they have some fetish for all things in the marvel universe. There won't be more than three figures from Suicide Squad. They're not making the whole team.

Doomsday would've required a unique mold? You mean kind of like the 1/6 Hulk that HT made? Point is if it's not Marvel, they don't give a s**t.

I'm holding out for Wallace Vernon Keefe.

Okay, maybe not. But I think they definitely could've made an Alfred, a Bruce Wayne & Clark Kent set, Lex, and heck, even Aquaman would've been cool.

The design for Doomsday was only finalized a couple months ago. How could Hot Toys have had a unique mold ready to go and show off already? It took them two YEARS to get a Drax mold ready they were happy with, and that was with a design that was finalized like a year before the movie.

Hot Toys very well may jump in and do the whole team, minus Slipknot and possibly El Diablo unless this line is crazy successful.

Yes, Hot Toys is gaga for Marvel--but this is the first time there's a *real* DC Cinematic Universe to market against it.

Where did you come to the conclusion that Doomsday was finalized a few months ago? We first saw him in the third trailer for BvS, and that was in December. That was the same goofy looking troll/ninja turtle design that appeared in the movie too, nothing was altered.

I don't know why you insist on arguing. The evidence is there, look at their previous releases. Name one line that Hot Toys has completed that wasn't marvel. They're not making the whole team from Suicide Squad, we're getting three figures max. You're setting yourself up for disappointment if you think so.

Is anyone factoring in the possibility of a Batman rerelease/rebrand?

Considering it's Batman I assumed that figure was a given. I'd imagine they'll vary up Batman's costume slightly to justify this as well.
I doubt they'll complete the team, but I'll be happy if we get Joker, Harley, Deadshot, and Croc. The rest will just be extra buys for me should they get made, but that's the four I really want from this line.

 

[Bucky0Har3]

I'm hoping for the white suit look, myself. Since Batman is so Dark Knight Returns-y, I think Joker should follow suit, no pun intended.

I agree, I'm hoping for white suit Joker too. Not a fan of his pimp look with the long coat and cain. I do like his long kind of Sweeny Todd shirt and waistcoat look, but I think that's a real long shot.

 

[Edub]

That's kind of why I've been holding off on pre ordering batman from batman vs superman. They'll probably release a suicide squad one and touch up a couple of things they didn't get right with the batman superman release.

 

[gaunted]

I think El Diablo is going to surprise a lot of people in this movie, I feel like he might be one of the more likable characters that aren't Will or Margot on the team
