Glantern Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Sadly, as expected, HT misses the mark with the likeness again IMO. I tend to agree. I can see RDJ a little in the 3/4 view, but straight on I think it looks more like Hugh Jackman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) I plan on buying him either way; next to Banner at that table they'll be a great display, and i don't want an actual Iron Man on my shelf (just a personal preference. Buy one and i'll be in for all of them). The likeness could be better though, none of any of them are really RDJ to me. It'll probably be upwards of 300 with that ridiculous base though. Still wavering back and forth on Bane. On the one hand, Widow is still delayed and i can afford it. He's got a really intimidating shelf presence too. On the other hand, i'm still not too thrilled by the look and he's pretty bare bones for that price tag. And i'd rather have a Ra's al Ghul or Commissioner Gordon. The Boss...looks better in the in-hand pics. Still a shame how bad they missed the mark but she'll be so beyond cheap on the aftermarket that i can put her off for a longggggg time. Hopefully until they announce a jungle version. Edited January 26, 2013 by Twisted Two-Face Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 I think the Hong Kong price puts that Stark around $220. Enterbay's exclusive Jordan has been released. Looks magnificent. Rainman announced his next figures will be Jules and Vincent from Pulp Fiction. Iminime team is doing the guy from Memento (with Trevor Grove sculpting!) and most likely John McClane.

Twisted Two-Face Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I could only buy that if he included a golf uniform and Bugs Bunny. Boss's eBay pics of the headsculpt look...really good actually. Not sure what's up with the professional photographers not capturing that look but she's not anywhere near as bad as we've seen. Zip up the suit and you've got a nice figure right there. Widow...looks worse. Not sure if they're screwing with the face but that's not the Widow we've been seeing. That hair was such a stupid mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 I would have bought that figure if the hair were sculpted. But since it ain't, that's $200 HT won't get from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye's Junk Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Preordered the Joker 1/6, anyone else thinking about it. I really like the look of the clothes. The coat looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I may throw some Sideshow Reward Points at that 1/6 Joker, not sure I care about the exclusive fish. In other news, a pretty funny review surfaced on Michael Crawford's site. That thing looks like it should have been released 30 years ago.

Shanester Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I can't wait to pick up a couple of the Hasbro 12" clones. Anakin looks like a joke, but the clones will do for fun. Can't beat the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Just a head's up: there's someone selling a Sideshow Snake Eyes for $40 on the /toy/ board on 4chan. I know 4chan seems risky, but i buy and sell from the board often and have never had a problem. Here's the link (all the way at the bottom) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 Don't know anything about that site, but that's a fantastic deal if true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Don't know anything about that site, but that's a fantastic deal if true. I ended up buying that Snake Eyes and it came today. It's a fantastic figure. I don't think I would have ever thought about buying it if I hadn't been so cheap, so now I'm not sure if I want to keep it or possibly flip it and get Bane who's looking really great in recent in-hand pictures.

youbastards Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Nice score! With a few easy upgrades, you can really improve it, too. If you decide to keep it, K80 or I can give you some upgrade tips. Did it come with the Falchion sword? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Yeah, 100% complete except for the original box, I'm very impressed by how detailed the accessories are, especially the removable magazine and working slide on the pistol.

Webhead Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 that's VERY tempting. They should have all their 1/6 figures up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted February 15, 2013 Author Share Posted February 15, 2013 Damn, I am a sucker for good deals, even if they are still gaudy, overpriced figures masquerading as good deals. But I shall resist! I would just end up re-selling anyway, and selling big stuff with small parts that can be damaged and create unhappy buyers isn't my idea of a good time.

Shanester Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I hope to have my SSC Snowtrooper today. His E-Web is lonely. I will probably buy a second if the first one is decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lokash Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 I picked up HT Avengers Capt America and Hawkeye from my LCS for 180 each. I put Avengers Cap on the shelf with the HT Rescue Cap but Hawkeye is still sitting in his box, not sure if I'm going to keep him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
