Hot Toys Life Size Captain America Bust ?

From FB:

We know fans have been fascinated with Hot Toys’ highly detailed and life-like 1/6th and 1/4th scale collectible figures for many years! And today we have a sneak peek for you all, where our talented Korean artist team is working on life-size characters which will embody the incredible details that many fans have known Hot Toys for.

Want to find out what this project is about? Then please stay tuned, it will be revealed very soon!

... Wow...

Never been a fan of busts, especially life size ones. It's like you decapitated our heroes and display their heads on the mantel!

Oh my....

Not for me as I haven't got the space but if they get the likeness down right I'm sure it'll be an impressive piece.

So this will probably be like $1000 or more......

Very cool, but it is gonna be to big and too expensive for me.

Can't wait to see where they're going with this--are they busts or life-size figures? Life-size figures don't seem to sell that well from what I've seen. Didn't SS just pull their life-size Darth Vader and Boba Fett from the site?

I'm not fond of life size figures, they just look like mannequins. It's certainly not something I would want displayed in my house. Busts look nice, they just take up so much room.

Might be just helmets/masks of the characters..which I would like!

Who is telling you guys that this is ONLY a bust? Come one HT! Give me Avangers AOU 1/1 full figures already!

Don't think these are going to be for sale. They have a future event in Hysan where there will be life size statues for Cap, Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, HB and Ultron. This looks to be for that special event.

They'll be showing off their 1/6 Age of Ultron figures there as well. Was the same thing as last year in the exact same location.

Well I can think of a couple 1:1 Avengers I'd rather have in my house than Cap....

Maybe they are drifting into replicas and the likenesses would be the base? The display pieces would be more probably in line with what is going on.

Let's give a huge round of applause to Hot Toys for actually posing these displays for a change!

Honestly, I'm betting these are just for promotional purposes, as well, but it would be awesome to see them start something like this for the uber rich people. I always look at those Life-Size Batman statues that companies charge $8K for, and they're terrible. They're poorly painted and they're often in awkward poses, and you're just like "who would pay that much for something that looks like that?" An HT quality, fully articulated life-size Cap, though? If I won the Powerball, I know what I'd be going after. That's one of the good ideas I saw come out of Sideshow, though; the articulation on their Boba Fett and Vader. It just makes sense; let the consumer choose how they want their display to look.

as much as I would love a life size Chris Evans... I don't see this happening as something for sale.

Plus, I would never buy a life size anything... can't even imagine how much HT would charge for something like that.

Like I said, you'd probably have to be uber rich, but I could see some people buying these things. Namely, this guy:

This MCU Themed House Turns Your Living Space Into Avengers Tower

Could be cool. If they do iron man helmets I'm in. I ordered the imaginarium starboost 1:1. It's shipped but on a slow boat from Singapore so it's taking forever. But given the price and shipping and how hard it is to find if much rather go with a hot toys version. Even this Cap head looks great.

I agree it does look odd, as a 1:1 bust...the whole decap thing. I've also never been a fan of statue busts. But...I may expand my collection again.

Bruh, how the hell did you get in my house?!

This thing is kinda creepy looking... accurate, but creepy.


To get ready for the "Marvel's Avengers: Age of Ultron Exhibition” Asia tour, we have been working on a number of life-size statues that will embody the meticulously crafted details that fans are used to see on Hot Toys' collectible figures.

We got another backstage look for you all today of the highly detailed Captain America life-size statue that features the life-like head sculpt created by our talented Korea artist team!

More news about the exhibitions is coming, stay tuned!
