Yea sorry I seriously didn't read what you were replying to, my bad lol Yea but HT specifically said "Authentic and detailed fully realized likeness of Dwayne Johnson as Roadblock in his military uniform and armor in the G.I. Joe Retaliation movie." Ususally if they cant get the license for the headscuplt they just make the head and sold it with base bodies and give no description to the headsculpt kinda like Obama, Dominic Purcell and Wentworth Miller. Bad headscuplt happened before, but usually if they get enough bad feedbacks from fans they then they'll try to make a newer and improved headscuplt kinda like Avangers Thor and Resident Evil Alice.
No. He's only worth $180 to me. I have the commando, and he is awesome fun! There are a couple issues, but they'll use that to nail the next one. And they ain't so bad. I always want to play with this guy. This is the sandpit toy you always wanted when you were ten. Like Woody & Buzzlightyear! When I can, I'm going to get me a Carter.
For Carter and Commando, probably not. It's a good first attempt, but it's got too many issues for that kind of money. You're better off waiting until they fix the problems and put out the next one, whenever that'll be. They are awesome figures though, they're just hampered by weak magnets and less than ideal joints.
They indicated that it was Dwayne Johnson? Then for sure I can agree that they would not do that without the license. I was not aware that they had indicated that it was him as roadblock, so that's my mistake. I was under the assumption they were just presenting Roadblock, and as such it could have been like the way they handled Kane from Alien. But if they are officially saying it's his likeness, then they definitely would be using his official likeness license I suppose and this must just be an off sculpt.
Great news for me - i don't need to sell most of my Hot Toys anymore still wanna offload Bane, Bat-pod and the Tumbler eventually as their too big for me to display and i'm not a fan of Bane's trousers. But the rest are staying, even gonna try and get Hawkeye again, might have sealed one for a decent price
Any of you guys know any websites with a Hot Toys Mark 7 Iron Man pre-order? Been looking everywhere and they've all been sold out
I'm trying my damndest to hold back... Those look sweet! I can't wait for my Loki to arrive, I have a few things in the works for it...
The electronics for Atlas/P-Body are quickly making them my most anticipated figures of the year. eyelight~1 - YouTube
Almost done with Avengers! They changed a fair amount with Hulk, but I think it's all for the better. Catwoman looks fantastic too.
I just got Hot Toys Loki, my first 1/6 figure. Have Mark VII Iron Man coming in a week or two. Having a hard time deciding f it was the right idea to start this line or if I should just sell the Loki. How much does value tend to go down when you open these guys? Will just opening the brown mailer so I can atleast look at it decrease the value if I decide to sell?
Honestly, as long as it is complete, with brown shipper, and just displayed, the value holds incredibly well.
That's good to know. So even if I open, I should keep the brown shipper? I usually keep everythig, but a shipping box seems strange for it to be important.
