Angesdad Posted January 24, 2021 Posted January 24, 2021 I remember so vividly as a young boy watching AKIRA for the first time in the late 80’s. “KANEDAAAAAAAAA!!! TETSUOOOOOOOO!!!” - a true masterpiece, my youth hasn’t been the same ever since. Anyhow there goes a big chunk of my budget for the year “helping” me to forget about vf-1d to z. Let the spring closet cleaning commence. Quote
borgified Posted January 24, 2021 Posted January 24, 2021 That's close to 72k yen for both @Angesdad! Maybe close to 95k yen in total when S&H is added? Will cost me over 1k CDN for both and that's not including the Import Tax when CBSA gets their paws on it. Quote

My daughter will disown me if she found out. I’ve been consolidating small stuff & saving up though, for the upcoming big hit . Quote

borgified Posted January 29, 2021 Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) If your into other 1/6th stuff like Asmus, Enterbay, 303, Pop Toys, Coo Model, Villa, DAM Toys, VTS, Phicen etc. then you can post here as well @valhary and see if others are interested in. It's just Hot Toys gets most of the attraction. Announced on Toyark https://news.toyark.com/2021/01/29/rogue-one-assault-tank-commander-figure-by-hot-toys-416523 To be out Q2/Q3 of 2022, pricing is $230 and pre-orders are up on Sideshow * * Edit: According to Collector's freak forum Edited January 29, 2021 by borgified Quote
ErikElvis Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 Wonder why they never made a “Wookiee” variant clone trooper in camo? Quote

Who in the world would like a walking shaggy carpet 1/6th Clone Trooper, unless your either Wampa or a Yeti/Abominable Snowman (maybe like Jerry Lewis' movie: Shaggy Dog or the remake done by Tim Allen).

Haha no I just meant when yoda went to the Wookiee planet with the clones the clones were all camo’d out. Quote

I see what your getting at... From Wookiepedia: Kyshakk Clone Troopers. Hot Toys did the Scout Trooper for ESB and the Mandalorian, so a re-use of the same mold with Cameo Armor paint. I think you got to pull a few strings to get Howard Chan's approval. Quote

borgified Posted January 31, 2021 Posted January 31, 2021 It's not the singer "The Artist formerly known as" @tekering. It's a cheaper version of Gal Gladot in and I do like this version honestly, however not much information is given (nor in any of the 3rd party 1/6th forums that I looked in so far). This is what I see on one of the fleabay listings. Quote

borgified Posted February 8, 2021 Posted February 8, 2021 Anyone has Endgame Capt on pre-order? If so, Jedha Patrol has got a breakdown on it. Quote
Kicker773 Posted February 8, 2021 Posted February 8, 2021 Paid off already. Should be released next month for US. Then remaining is left is Thor, and Hulk, from the original 5. Quote
borgified Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 (edited) Just saw this from another 1/6th thread and looks like a mock up/kit bash (I have no way to verify if this is true until 11:30 PST as I'm at work)? As posted on various Star Wars forums, Gina Corrano has been kicked out by Disney and no longer employed, so for those that are waiting for a 1/6th Cara Dune, it's not going to happen at all.

Kicker773 Posted February 19, 2021 Posted February 19, 2021 Word in the grapevine mark 1 die cast will be announced soon. Professor Hulk end of the month. Quote
borgified Posted February 19, 2021 Posted February 19, 2021 (edited) Holy Crap!! Hot Toys is really pushing out teasers like wild fire... Update with Mando Fett. It's a two pack and Season 2 Din with Beskar Spear has been teased. From Hot Toys Facebook page as shown below. Edit: One hour later. The two pack Mando Fett will cost $493 USD and to be released Q4 2022/Q1 2023 from what Collector's Freak has mentioned. Edited February 19, 2021 by borgified Quote
borgified Posted February 19, 2021 Posted February 19, 2021 Miles is $290 USD and to be out Q2/Q3 of 2022 while the regular Mando Fett is $285USD and the release date is the same as the deluxe. Toyark has further info if interested. Quote
Lolicon Posted March 3, 2021 Posted March 3, 2021 Got my Mark LXXXV yesterday. Really love this figure! I like it more than most of the previous armors. My only gripe is that the Infinity Stones don't glow as brightly as I would like. Maybe I have something wrong with my setup, but it's rather dim in these pics. Quote

Ok @Lolicon, enough of your overwhelming photographic encouragement! Seriously is that CG or an actual toy..so cool! I will have to be content with my 6 & 7. I can barely keep up with current year's scheduled releases and preorders. Edited March 3, 2021 by Angesdad Quote
borgified Posted March 3, 2021 Posted March 3, 2021 The light effects on HT stuff is good except for the batteries that they supply for it are total trash. I believe that Soap Reactors (lighting kit) can do a better job of making the illumated details pop out. I still haven't fiddled with my copy of the Mando Death Trooper yet. Can leave it in it's own coffin for now until I rotate my very limited spaced display cases. Quote
Kicker773 Posted March 3, 2021 Posted March 3, 2021 I've had mine for a month now but gonna hold back on opening it until the rest of the crew arrives (Cap/Thor/Hulk) End Game Cap, although Sideshow has been putting up videos of it on their IG has yet to announce when the will start shipping. Usually the item has already shipped before they start doing their how to pose videos. End Game Cap and Thanos Damage Ver delayed again. Quote

Ah, the Mark 6 is one that I regret missing out on. They're reissuing the Mark 5, so I'm hoping Mark 6 gets a reissue too! Mark 7 is one of the best suits too. Quote
