Medicom RAH Blade ?

[Bonehead15]

I just heard a rumor that Medicom is going to release a Blade figure under their RAH line.

Anybody else hear anything about this??:confused:

[Darklord Dave]

You mean this one? It seems like he might come with a Blade DVD box set, but I'm sure someone else will know for sure.

[Bonehead15]

Yep that's the one Dave.

I just found these pics on Medicom's site.

WOW!! :google That looks awesome!!!

I need to preorder this immediately!! :p

SS PLEASE carry this figure!!!! :D

If not I guess I'll have to head over to HLJ.

yep that is one hell of a nice looking figure. I dont even like blade that much but its tempting, I love the style because its a 'comic version' and I can think of a afew things id use those clothes and accessories for...but maybe I should just miss it, and not go there

[Darklord Dave]

He looks pretty simplistic. Where's his vest?

[BDboystoys]

I guess he didnt wearone in the comic, or did he? I wouldnt know.

I guess he didnt wearone in the comic, or did he? I wouldnt know.

But that's not the comic version of Blade, but the movie version.

If it is a pack-in with a DVD box set I can see them skimping on his outfit, but if it's as expensive as the other Medicom Marvels, I'd expect him to be as detailed as possible.

Yeah, that's a comic Blade, not a movie Blade.

After the 1st film came out, they changed his look in the comics to be similar, and this is what the figure is based on.

[screamingmetal]

I believe this version is based on the Bart Sears Blade. It sure looks like his Blade.
It's nice but I already have my blade figure. I took the very excellent head off the Marvel version and put it on a dragon body, then switched over most of his clothes. The vest may need to be remade and the sword as well, but it still looks like a great figure, and it didn't cost me $200.
I might put it on a newer Hot Toys body if I can find a spare Apone cheap.

[Darklord Dave]

I stand corrected. Since he's not the movie version I don't have to get him! Yay!!!

[bluesparrow]

Yeah good call, definitely looks like Bart Sears' Blade.

[Darklord Dave]

So my dealer says it will be part of a DVD box set and will run Y24,150 or about $225.00.

[chamildav]

Box set with DVD's and an action figure? I don't expect anyone here would be interested in that, wink wink, nudge nudge.
I like the basic style of the figure. Does look like Bart Sears. I think I might try to get one. It's just, you know, $225.00 and I can't even play the DVD's on my player. Well I can watch them on my computer. I'd like to see the packaging art when it's available. That really would have a lot to do with whether I do go the extra mile ot try and buy one of these.

[Darklord Dave]

Now my dealer tells me that this DVD set would run upwards of $290. That makes it a bit easier to pass on, even though I could play the DVDs. And it isn't being sold by Medicom, but by the DVD distributor.

[chamildav]

Wow. Well, screw that idea. Just as well, I'm buying way too much stuff lately anyway.
