^Castor hasn't been found yet. People think that might be a preview of what is coming for series 3 since many are reporting on only finding Jarvis & Quorra. I hope they make Daft Punk to go with Castor.
I've bought movie-based toys before, and some of them have been pretty good (Iron Man 2 for example), while others have been horrible (i.e. Speed Racer). I have mixed feelings with TRON toys. They seem pretty good, but then at the same time, they could be better. I'm so tempted on getting the Sam Flynn Light Cycle.
For some reason, I'm just not expecting that from Spinmaster. And while I'm not shelling out whatever crazy amount for the Medicom (or was it Hot Toys?) 12" figures, I am certainly buying those Kubricks.
I don't usually do diecasts, on account of the 'doesn't do anything' factor....but I picked up a Recognizer on a whim, and I rather like it. Might have to cobble up a flight stand.
It could be done. They do make a cameo in the film playing the roles of 2 MP3 programs at Castor's(Zeus) End of Line club after all, so they don't have to be directly called "Daft Punk." But I'm sure Spinmaster would still have to pay for the usage and likeness rights, unless that's included with all the other TRON stuff. Plus, they could be sold in a 2-pack with their music console as seen in the film.
Whew, that was close. If the figure could be posed separately, I'd have to get it. As it is, it's a fairly easy pass.
I think it's that way because posing may have harmed all the lighting. Unless they create some way for the light to work while posing the figures. Fiber Optics running from a central light unit within the figure's torso maybe?
I must say I am really unimpressed with this line. The movie looks pretty secks, too bad it couldn't properly transitioned to secks toy line. The Hot Toys guy looks pretty cool. If only he could be a separate figure, like a 2-Pack. That woulda been awesome.
That could work, I guess. But their War Machine has light-up eyes, chest, and hands, each with separate LEDs and switches. I'd certainly be OK with multiple switches on a TRON character.
This will be in the mail to me soon anyone want a review? http://i399.photobucket.com/albums/pp71/GabOchoa/Tron Legacy Merch/DSC00078.jpg
Does anybody know if there are gonna be any other toys beyond series one of the 3 inch figures and when they might be coming out?
Great pic, kylash! These toys look outstanding in pictures, but have severely failed to wow me in person. I've only gotten the diecast Recognizer and Kevincycle so far.
There are! Series 2 of the 3.75" figures is out now (only 3 new figures in the series though,) and today I found Series 2 diecast vehicles: Sadly, only 3 new vehicles in this line as well. But the back does say that Wave 3 is coming. Also, I saw an Ultimate Clu figure at Target last night, same type as the Ultimate Sam.
^Aww those look awesome! I take it since the orange 1-man light jet belongs to Clu and his gang of baddies, the 3-man light jet will hold our trio of heroes? I also saw the DAFT PUNK: TRON LEGACY score at Target tonight. You can listen to all of it's 22 tracks HERE: http://www.stopthenoise.fr/2010/11/...ja-disponible-en-leak-sur-internet-streaming/
