EXO Posted July 19, 2012 Author Posted July 19, 2012 I used to order from these guys, even went to their store. Haven't been buying Hot Toys in a while but back then they were realy good. http://www.cornerstorecomics.com/index.cfm?page=shopping/shop&Category_ID=12&ChildCategory_ID=106 Since you're in CA though, remember taxes will apply.

Negotiator Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 (edited) Thanks Exo, site has alot of stuff with pretty reasonable prices and Anaheim is only about 30 min away. Edited July 19, 2012 by Negotiator Quote
Dobber Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 Thanks for the web site recommendation EXO. What is their pre-order policy? Their FAQ doesn't state when you need to pay. Is it up front or when it's available? Chris Quote
Omegablue Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 where's a good site to order HT figs from? cheapest if in the states.. edit: I just ordered HT bane at bbts... unless there's a better reputable vendor out there for less than $179.99 Amiami.com, just order on Sal insured. Will take 2 to more weeks, but I'm paying $230 for Batman, instead of Sideshows $275. Quote

Kicker773 Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 Please, bigger picture to fully appreciate it... Will take more with BW later Quote
GU-11 Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 I don't suppose those accessories are included? Although I do spot several item that didn't come with the HT figs, like that nunchaku-looking thing on the bottom right of the left main display. Either way, it looks awesome. Quote
BeyondTheGrave Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Is that a hot toys uso version of captain america i see tucked in the corner? Quote
GU-11 Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Looking at the 1/1 scale Tumbler, I have to ask: where is that damn cannon Batman used to blow off the barrier wall on the parking lot in Batman Begins, and Gordon used to blow up the water tower pillars? I do see what look like dual machine guns on the sides of the "cockpit" between the wheels, though. That said, no matter how many times I look at it, it's still an awesome looking machine. Quote
Kicker773 Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Is that a hot toys uso version of captain america i see tucked in the corner? Yes its suppose to be a toyfair exclusive like the Jim Gordon me and Exo were talking about Quote
EXO Posted July 21, 2012 Author Posted July 21, 2012 Nice pics Kicker. I hope you didn't bust a nut amidst all those awesome figures. Was Playarts there also, they usually have an amazing Final Fantasy Booth, but I bet it's a lot bigger now with all the other video game franchises they make toys for. For people asking about Cornerstore, call them on their 1-800 number. They're really helpful but like I said, it's been a long time since I've bought a 1:6 scale fig. Quote

anime52k8 Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Yes its suppose to be a toyfair exclusive like the Jim Gordon me and Exo were talking about so, to clarify, the Gordon in Swat gear is an exclusive, but they're going to do a not-swat version as a regular release? Quote

For people asking about Cornerstore, call them on their 1-800 number. They're really helpful but like I said, it's been a long time since I've bought a 1:6 scale fig. My mouth literally was jaw dropped and I couldn't take pictures since I was busy staring at things both non human and human LOL. The wife took over the camera and took most or if not all the pictures that you see. She was insistent on why I wasn't into it or wanted to take pictures with things and people. But to be honest after waiting 7-8hrs in line just to get in there was already tiring (plus we weren't prepared like the others who had chairs, food and drinks) I was exhausted by the time the doors opened for premiere night. I wanted to take a picture with this girl, which I thought might be Alodia, but I wasn't sure since I was so tired. Honestly by the 3rd day I was comic conned out. so, to clarify, the Gordon in Swat gear is an exclusive, but they're going to do a not-swat version as a regular release? There was a custom out, but as far as official release from hot toys. nothing has been mentioned except for the swat version. oh when I was in line for the kotobukiya booth, my wife was kind enough to stay in line for me while I walk around. By the time I got back she made friends in line who both were into toys and was trying to tell her the difference between exclusive figures and non exclusive. From a distance I could already tell she didn't care much for the conversation and was really surprised that there were people more crazier than me out there. Eyes lit up when she told everyone I had my own toy room! LOL Quote
Negotiator Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Is there a site that specializes in separate HT heads? I have the first joker they came out with but doesn't really look like Heath and I'm not down to spend another $300 for v.2 Quote

Twoducks Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Ugh, Iron Man Mk VII looks off. Reminds me of the cyborg look the HT MK III had (specially on the hips). Quote
Omegablue Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 In regards to mechanical based figures like Ironman, HT should just ask the film studios for a cleaned up 3D model, and work from the PC. It will insure 100% accurate replication. Quote
BeyondTheGrave Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Why does the special edition war machine go for less than the movie version? Quote
Omegablue Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Why does the special edition war machine go for less than the movie version? Where? Quote
BeyondTheGrave Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) Amazon, ebay, local vendor On amazon the special edition goes for 250 the regular goes for close to 400. Edited July 22, 2012 by BeyondTheGrave Quote
Omegablue Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 Avengers Coulson figure announced. Those Chituari guys... And the big one, a 1/4 scale Batman. All will be fully revealed at this week's Ani-Con. http://www.toyark.com/news/general-toy-news-49/hot-toys-previews-new-avengers-and-dark-knight-rises-figures-6198/ Quote
GU-11 Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 1/4th? Don't really see the need for such a large figure; 1/6 scale is the perfect size for displayin without taking up too much space, AFAIC. Maybe HT's looking to milk the Batman license of all it's worth. Quote
anime52k8 Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) http://www.threeaonl...om/blog/?p=3123 Holy f*cking crap... :edit: Edited July 25, 2012 by anime52k8 Quote
BeyondTheGrave Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) Been meaning to post something about that. You better get one dang it. Also anyone have the HT jill battle suit version? Edited July 25, 2012 by BeyondTheGrave Quote
anime52k8 Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 Been meaning to post something about that. You better get one dang it. have I ever mentioned that I've never actually played halo reach? also it's probably going to be really expensive and I'm kind of poor and I'd rather have a proper Master Chief and... I'm probably going to end up getting this. crap... Quote
xrentonx Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) Hah! I just saw that myself. I think you're the only other 3A collector on these boards 'sides myself. I'm gonna try and pick up both if I can. Edited July 25, 2012 by xrentonx Quote

I'm gonna try and pick up both if I can. have fun with that... :edit: Just noticed the updated blog post; 200USD... oh god I am going to get one :wacko: ONLY ONE. Haven't decided which one to go with though. I don't have any attachment to Carter as a character, but the blue does look good. that said the solid grey isn't bad either and It'll probably end up being the rarer of the two in the long run.

xrentonx Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) Yeah. This announcement happened so suddenly with such short notice. This one is gonna hurt... Edited July 25, 2012 by xrentonx Quote
anime52k8 Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 Yeah. This announcement happened so suddenly with such short notice. This one is gonna hurt... And on top of so much other stuff too. Cherry Shadow, AP slicer tk and this all before the end of the month, plus I've got pre-orders from HLJ this months. too much. Quote
