Medicom Hostel 1/6 figure..anyone get it?

Mines coming in tomorrow and was just curious if anyone else here ordered one?.......................thanks, Larry

I ordered one .. Should be here tomorrow as well.

be sure to post pics

Yes please post pics!

I'm thinking about getting one... Anyone got there's yet who could posts some pics? Pretty please

pics coming tonight ... overall I'm not as impressed as I thought I would be. For one, the figure is too darn clean .. this is a horror figure and should be bloodied up. I guess that can be fixed. Other than that, it is a very simple figure that cost far more than I think it should have.

Here are a couple photos of the figure. Anyone else that got this have a problem with moving the right arm? I can move it back, but it will not raise up forward (as if to have the machete over his head).

You might try undressing the figure... sometimes when figures are being clothed at the factory some material gets stuck in a joint and cause it to be immobile or twisted at an odd angle.

Usually just removing the shirt and putting it back on will fix the problem.

I ordered this one as well but do not have him yet.

Also pre-ordered the Medicom Jigsaw killer.

the only reason I didn't order this guy is because I don't feel anything for him if you get me ( I think most horror fans will ). He wasn't like a main bad guy or anything.
Don't get me wrong a scary guy and all and a great movie but hes just not " special " enough for me.
Be sure to post up pics when you get him guys !

I wouldn't mind a figure from Hostel, but awhile back I saw the unmasked headsculpt and it was terrible/Hasbro quality.

I did not keep Hostel kept the Jigsaw Killer.

HS sucks but the rest looks good.

Yep, for $55 I can't say no... got him ordered

Thanks for the heads up Krayt

This is a sweet frackin' figure and I loved Hostel but I agree with uselessminion, I've got better stuff to get. I might get him but it won't be for a while if I even get it. But regardless of if I get it or not it's still a nice figure.

Agreed...

Ok movie I thought, not worth investing in merchandise.

Mine'll be here on Monday... not expecting the 2nd coming, but for $60ish shipped I can't complain.

Well for having low expectations I have to say this figure didn't even meet those... its really pretty much total crap IMO. He's got those annoying flipper hand gloves that fall off, the black smock comes loose and isn't adjustable so it looks bad (see last picture). The shoes are too big which makes standing difficult and overall its just a blah looking figure. Glad I didn't pay retail for him and most likely I'll resell him at my earliest convenience

Also, the pacakaging is really not collector friendly... takes a lot more work than usual, which is very odd for Medicom. So in short, not worth the trouble even at a deeply discounted price!!!

EDIT Okay, initial impressions were a little harsh, but still vaild. After taking a few pictures he's not a total waste. But still one I would not recommend and I'm still probably gonna dump him off on eBay before too long.
