Official Hot Toys Thread

[BStecke]

There's a Sideshow/statues/collectibles thread in off topic, but it'd be cool to have an "official" Hot Toys thread since they have a pretty sizable following. This one's a good start, any objections to a thread title change?

I don't see why anyone would object to a thread title change. Seems like this is a strong foundation for the makings of a dedicated thread.

I feel silly, but I don't think I'm able to change the thread title myself. When I tried doing so, it simply changed the title of the first post.

I think if you go to the first post and hit edit, then edit again it'll let you change the thread title.

Only MODS can change thread titles once a thread is officially posted.

Just ordered this guy! Gotta wait to March of 2013, but I can't wait to get him. My Avengers orders are complete, now the wait begins, followed by the worst part, watching all that money drain out of my checking account

Petra is correct.

Once the thread has been posted, Only a Mod that Moderates that section can change the thread title.

I am looking forward to my Hawkeye next month. Hoping it doesn't get delayed again. After that, it's the Batpod this November. December is going to be busy with TDK DX12, Thor, Black Widow...hopefully, I will have enough funds for Joker DX11. Hulk and Catwoman is a sure thing for 2013.

What is the cheapest way or best place to obtain the Christopher reeves superman with kryptonite necklace? I am her is the sacramento CA area. I plan on displaying the model and this will be my first purchase like this...

[BStecke]

The only place to get the version with the kryptonite was to order through Sideshow as that was their exclusive, but it's long sold out. Your best bet would be to check forums like Sideshow Freaks or eBay.

I'm not sold on the Hulk, that is a lot of cash for a him I think. For whatever reason I like when there are a lot of accessories, makes me feel like I'm getting more value for my money and with the Hulk there are only an extra set of hands.

Have you seen anymore pictures of the Catwoman? I've only seen the teaser image.

[BStecke]

I know a lot of people were bummed about the Hulk's pricing and accessories. Sideshow's pricing really sucks since its 300 plus shipping AND a non refundable deposit. I ended up getting mine from Alter Ego Comics for like 286 shipped.

Personally I'm not too worried about accessories. There's not really much for Hulk to come with, but it would've been cool if he came with another head sculpt. Ever since I was a kid I've never been big on accessories for my figures. Most of my Hot Toys accessories are still in the boxes.

My biggest hope for Hulk is that they hide the joints better for production. But as is he's still pretty sweet.

You can also try Amazon but you are going to pay a high price upwards of $275 or more. If I were you, I would just buy Superman without the kryptonite necklace. In my opinion, it is the best looking figure of Christopher Reeve as Superman out there. I missed out on the kryptonite exclusive but I still ordered my Superman and he looks perfect. The pictures on the internet do not do him justice.

[BStecke]

You could also just buy a regular Superman and try to pick up the Kryptonite chain separately. I've heard they're selling upwards of 90 bucks though. Actually making me consider selling mine as its just chillin' in the box

I currently don't have any of these however they are cool as shit and I've been looking into getting some of them for a long time so I finally placed a couple orders for them over the past couple months.

I have the Hot Toys Batman/Bruce Wayne DX Series and The Joker 2.0 DX Series on order. I also am on a waitlist for the Sideshow Exclusive Lt. Jim Gordon SWAT suit figure but no idea if I'll actually get it as it's a limited item. I'm also considering the Iron Man Mark VII version from The Avengers too and possibly Bane. Truthfully I love the Nolan Batman films and would consider getting most of the main characters eventually if they all are made.
