dr_vandermeer Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 "All right, sweethearts, what are you waiting for? Breakfast in bed? Another glorious day in the corps! A day in the Marine Corps is like a day on the farm. Every meal's a banquet! Every paycheck a fortune! Every formation a parade! I LOVE the corps!" Satan will be receiving my soul shortly, because these bad boys are coming soon!!! BOW DOWN TO THE MARINES!!! APONE!!! HICKS!!! VASQUEZ!!! DRAKE!!! SMART GUN!!! Quote
Pat S Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 Uh oh, I have to own these! WHY'D I CLICK THE THREAD?! Quote
Akilae Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 Wait, I don't see Hudson.. only Hicks... I do see the AVP preds with the big ass "everything to the max" wrist blades and shoulder cannons... Quote
dr_vandermeer Posted August 12, 2005 Author Posted August 12, 2005 (edited) Can't see the pics .Graham 319644[/snapback] hmm, strange... Wait, I don't see Hudson.. only Hicks...I do see the AVP preds with the big ass "everything to the max" wrist blades and shoulder cannons... 319647[/snapback] Hopefully they do the whole group. That's Reese next to the 'battle damaged" T-800 too. Hot Toys is doing some new "Movie Masterpieces' line of figures. The T--800 Endoskeleton and Robocop are supposed to be on the way too.

EXO Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 I think Graham always has problems when it's hosted by Imageshack. These things are too awesome. Quote
Guest Bromgrev Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 Vasquez's arms are a bit skinny (who'd mistake her for a man?), but check out the 'padlocked heart' on Hicks! Oh, the detail! Quote
UN Spacy Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 Looks goooooooooooooooood. Any idea how much these are gonna cost? Quote
dr_vandermeer Posted August 12, 2005 Author Posted August 12, 2005 I think Graham always has problems when it's hosted by Imageshack. 319650[/snapback] Ah I see...here you go, try this Graham.

wolfx Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 Nooo....i dunn wanna start 12" figures too! Quote
Max Jenius Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 That smart-gun doesn't have the arm... :-/ Quote
dr_vandermeer Posted August 12, 2005 Author Posted August 12, 2005 Looks goooooooooooooooood. Any idea how much these are gonna cost? 319652[/snapback] Well the Reese fig and damaged T-800 at www.actionfigure2002.com had pre-order prices of $89.99 and $119.99 respectively. The in-stock prices are now $105.99 and $135.99. So I expect the Marines to be around that much. Not bad considering the Cy-Girls Jin-Roh figure went for between $150-$175. Quote
dr_vandermeer Posted August 12, 2005 Author Posted August 12, 2005 That smart-gun doesn't have the arm... :-/ 319655[/snapback] I think Vasquez's arm is hiding it. You can see a little of it in her pic and can definitely see it in the tiny pic of Drake. Quote
Guppy Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 HOLY FREAKIN SHEIIT! I am getting them all. must feed Aliens habit! Now I can chuck out my 12" Hicks dolly. He is so crappy. Quote
Graham Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 Not into 12" action figures at all, but these Colonial Marine Figures look awesome. Might have to break down and purchase the Hicks figure. Graham Quote
GobotFool Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 (edited) when are these due out? And why Drake? I'd rather have Hudson than Drake... Edited August 12, 2005 by GobotFool Quote
Skull Leader Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 My wallet is already cringing.... I MUST own these!!! Quote

ComicKaze Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 Show us the pics of T-800, Kyle Reese, and the Predators! Quote
HWR MKII Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 Great now im going to have to scratch build that 1/6 scale R/C APC to go along with these. Quote
KingNor Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 i'm guessing they picked drake over hudson because hudson is esentially hicks, with a few teeny tiny diffrences. Drake has a completely unique gear set. Quote
zeo-mare Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 the predators look good i wish they would do the leader you see at the end of the AVP movie the older pred with the cape. chris Quote
dr_vandermeer Posted August 12, 2005 Author Posted August 12, 2005 Ah, interesting. Good to know. I had always thought Hot Toys were on par with Dragon, hadn't heard about their QC issues. Hopefully they have their poo together for these. What is it about the heads that suck? Are you just talking about likenesses or quality of the plastic and paint apps? Quote
EXO Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 Vasquez looks like Fes from That 70's Show. "Good day, aliens.... I SAID GOOD DAY!" BRAKA! BRAKA! BRAKA! Quote
GobotFool Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 (edited) hrm... all these bad reviews make me not want to try and collect Hot Toys stuff... and this was looking to be a promising line. Their QC sounds worse than yamatos. Yikes, the qualiy of the real thing, compared to the proto, is crap... Edited August 12, 2005 by GobotFool Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 I really have to see these in person before i decide to buy them. So we'll see.... Quote
Guppy Posted August 12, 2005 Posted August 12, 2005 Any big pics of Drake their website's here so we can all eagerly check for updates! http://www.hottoys.com.hk/index.html Quote
hellohikaru Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 The Reese figure doesn't look much like Bhien. I wouldn't know who it is with the clothes/gear taken off. Quote
GobotFool Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 Where's Ash!? 319907[/snapback] Where is Bishop? Quote
bsu legato Posted August 13, 2005 Posted August 13, 2005 OK, who's going to be crazy enough to build THIS for their marines? Quote
