[ShortRound]

oh no what a train wreak!

[vermeer]

A talking doll !? :horror

Can it open his mouth while talking? :cuckoo:

[neo]

The headsculpt is insane! Just looks like a screencap of the movie!

[breakersrevenge]

A talking doll !? :horror

Can it open his mouth while talking? :cuckoo:

You said it! its a doll!

Maybe this is the next step after HT PERS/ EB 360 eye system is a doll that can speak.


Yea, i know moving eyes was developed way back before EB/HT :wink1:

[King Darkness]

The face looks photoshoped onto the body. Something strange about it. I smell something fishy :tap

[dominishin]

Ehhh talking feature is unnecessary and makes it lose some of its... sophistication. It's not a child's toy!

Paint apps look good as usual for Enterbay protos. And I say this every time, don't believe their BS.

[Jokes & Bats]

Face looks rather photoshoped - I like the hair and bandana and the coat but the clothes look very cheap, espesh the plastic belts and boots.

[Lejuan]

$350


:cuckoo:

[breakersrevenge]

Release has nothing to do with Enterbay, Enterbay cant even sell to EB dealers - due to licencing.

All they did was partnered with Medi under UU banner and supply Medi with YJ's sculpt

EB in the end are just distributors of the figure (HK/China only - just like the other UU projects)

Yeh but Enterbay have made sure their fingerprints are all over the promo material. Interesting decision seeing as how if it bombs they'll wear a large share of the blame - maybe most of it.


oh yeah. And $350.

[JosephCPR]

Can't wait for my HT DX Jack.

Hey Breakers when you put "UU" like that it looks just like a pair of saggy ****-which is very appropriate for this nightmare pairing.

[breakersrevenge]

Hahaha!! Saggy **** :)

[RagingBull]

I think the sculpt is great, I don't like the talking bit though, its just a bit tacky & who would want it anyway. They'd be better of droping that & dropping there price as well.

[DinoLast]

I think it looks great, but the headsculpt is a completely different colour to the body which might be giving off that Photoshopped look.
To be honest the price is insane, and I don't blame Enterbay for that, I blame Medicom

[karamazov80]

Ehhh talking feature is unnecessary and makes it lose some of its... sophistication. It's not a child's toy!

Agreed, and I would say the same about light up gimmicks--better suited for Hasbro toys. Those types of gimmicks make these figures feel. . .cheaper, somehow. But be careful saying that around certain HT fans or they'll string you up and toss rotten tomatoes at you.

And the face does appear photoshopped here to me. Looks like they only show the face from two angles, which is also very strange. . .


-There 2 guns on his waist belt and the saber can be drawn!
-Posable!
-Hand parts enclosed to remake your favorite scenes!
These are really their selling points? Huh.

[JIM007]

maybe i buy only the headsculpt and put it on my old hot toys jack sparrow if i find it part out on the ebay but seriously
medicom prices are ridiculously high
if they really wanted to have any chance in the market they should offer their products on half of the price of hot toys
i cannot understand their selling strategy
seriously

[ah_t00t]

$350 seriously is too much, i can understand if the figure comes with a vehicle like tron or ghost rider for that kind of price but this comes with nothing but a talking feature, reminds me of the old kenner robocop toy i used to have with sound features,lol

[Kenmk1]

350$??? :panic::panic::panic:
I must recognize that the head sculpt is pretty good, better than HT I think... further with the real hair and that bandana, it looks better. But the price is astronomical!!

Btw, HT have announced the 2 grials and the bottle..... Is amazing how is trying to buried EB :rotfl:rotfl:rotfl:rotfl:rotfl

The Chalices are going to be included with the Angelica figure

[Rzeznikk]

The Chalices are going to be included with the Angelica figure

Yup. But since Im getting Angelica as well this is a moot point. :clap

[Gipetto0812]

head sculpt hat and Jacket are the best parts about this figure. since Angelica is coming with the chalices, this figure lost it's value to me especially after seeing the incredibly huge price for so little. HT is still the way to go as in getting more bang for your buck, but I really do like the HS on this figure and the hat

[jayveeeusebio]

Wow, so this figure talks huh?! That's a first. Hopefully they'll include a vid demo for this new system.

[TeXaZMsM87]

Looks good but the talking feature is a little lame and sounds like something you would get at walmart lol. Head sculpt looks great though.

[Kuzeh]

Well,
I think it looks great, but I still prefer HT's.
The voice gimmick is kind of cool IMO...
but the price tag is ridiculous...
I hope I can score the headsculpt, the chalices and Pearl in a bottle...
though people rarely part out Medis...

EDIT:
Never mind, just saw HT's update!!
:lol!

[gunm]

I hope EB keeps adding stuff to their figures so HT has to add it to theirs. :p

[meanstreak]

I still think Enterbay should make only supporting or side characters from films that HT has the license to, that way someone may buy em. If they knew HT had a Jack coming out they could've done Blackbeard or Barbossa.

[Lejuan]

If EB want people to buy their stuff they don't necessarily have to opt for lesser characters. They just need to make sure their marketing and promotion strategy is solid and that they have a quality figure at a reasonable MSRP. My guess is that if EB knew HT had a Jack coming out they'd have gone ahead with it anyway :dunno

[gunm]

They can also make their stuff cheaper than Hot Toys. >_<

[Cheungkinmen]

Headsculpt looks great IMO, price is not. $350 is just too freaking much, but knowing Medicom it's just what they normally charge for their ugly undersized figures.

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

$350


:cuckoo:

:lol :lol :lol :lecture

[Deckard]

Can't imagine at the price point who'd prefer this over HT. Same figures, HT has a 2nd head and better costume. Why does EB still try to go head to head instead of doing their own thing?

[Unclechopchop]

Can't imagine at the price point who'd prefer this over HT. Same figures, HT has a 2nd head and better costume. Why does EB still try to go head to head instead of doing their own thing?

Agreed. I said this months ago on another site, and everybody jumped down my throat. Oh well, at least there's one person on my side.:hi5:

[hairlesswookiee]

Can't imagine at the price point who'd prefer this over HT. Same figures, HT has a 2nd head and better costume. Why does EB still try to go head to head instead of doing their own thing?

Because they're Enterbay? I've always wondered why their damn figures were so freaking expensive when they really don't give you much for the $$

~~IMO the Hot Toys Jack blows this out of the water in every aspect. The Enterbay smirking expression is awesome, but I don't really see it being better than the HT ones....just a different expression. The clothes are great on both, but what it boils down to are the extras that Hot Toys includes with it. Oh, and for the price....why would anyone choose EB over HT unless they are on crack??

[qbomb71]

Wow. A talking figure. Just like the $19.99 figures at Target, but for $350.00.

The HS is awesome however, EB needs to plan on a small edition size though at this price point.

[eltigre15]

Usually I just lurk here but I had to say something because obviously I am the only one that thinks this and am completely insane. I just saw the movie and I just can't see Johnny Depp in this sculpt at all and while the Hot Toys sculpt could use improvements I think it is still better then this. Even filtering out the uncharacteristically evil smirk where is he??! Will someone join me in collective insanity or shall I go huddle in the corner?

I hear ya. All I can say is I'm glad I'm not seeing what most others are seeing in this sculpt, 'cause then I'd have a harder time choosing between the two Jacks on offer. As it is, I've never found it easier to pass on a figure tbh.

:goodpost::exactly::lecture

[Gipetto0812]

The more I look at the official pics the more I wish the price wasn't so high so I could get both UU Jack and DX Jack. This figure it really starting to grow on me and I really like the gesturing hand from when the water travels up his hand when just out side the cave area

[2ndname]

$200 for the figure and $150 for the voicebox.

[EVILFACE]

:lol :lol :lol $350 :lol :lol :lol

And another thing Hasbro did long before Enterbay.

http://savingthe70s.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/talking.jpg

Is the next EB figure gonna have fuzy hair and fung fu grip?

[Cheungkinmen]

If the price were right, then I would also have had a hard time choosing, I like both of them, don't prefer one over the other, but HT is my choice because of it being more affordable.

It's a shame that the price is so high, I believe no one on this board will buy this, haha.

Don't forget the second HT sculpt that we're yet to see. Could be a game changer for those on the fence :)

[Remy]

Yup, if theyre both the same price, I still probably would have picked this over HT cause I really love the sculpt. And the bandana and the hair looks more realistic. The ship in the bottle is nice but not a deciding factor for me. I might have bought this and an HT loose rudder. But $350? Are their marketing department idiots? They have to be.

[vareika]

The talking feature is really a bad, bad feature...

[jayveeeusebio]

I still think Enterbay should make only supporting or side characters from films that HT has the license to, that way someone may buy em. If they knew HT had a Jack coming out they could've done Blackbeard or Barbossa.

Looks like he's smelling egg fart.

[work13]

The face looks photoshoped onto the body. Something strange about it. I smell something fishy :tap

Even if it isn't photoshoped, the actual production run figure will look nothing like this prototype. The difference between Enterbay Prototype to Production release is like night and day. It seems to be the EB trend. Wow us with incredible prototypes, only to disappoint us with what is actually being released in production to the public. It's almost like a scam.

[work13]

Can't imagine at the price point who'd prefer this over HT. Same figures, HT has a 2nd head and better costume. Why does EB still try to go head to head instead of doing their own thing?

I think it's because EB got pissed that hot toys stole their star bruce lee sculptor(Arnie Kim). So now it's war. Maybe they want to prove a point to hot toys that they can still compete toe to toe, even without Arnie Kim.

[RIDDICK]

You guys are crazy :rotfl:rotfl:rotfl
EB only sculpt this awesome head and dats all.
I know that EB pretty messed up all the time... but certainly NOT SO :slap
So f__ Medicom for this fig yeah!!! :faq

[Gipetto0812]

Yea I agree that price and what not is more medi's fault than EB's. They gave us a great HS though.

On the brighter side, on EB's Facebook page some said that the price is $190 not $350. Someone asked how do they know but they have yet to reply.

But if the smaller price is the true price, at least they will be able to somewhat compete better with the HT figure

[JosephCPR]

Likeness looks excellent but I highly doubt that is what the final piece will look like. And even though that wasn't the case, its quality wouldn't fit the rest of the figure IMo

[Centurion]

I think this is how Enterbay needs to approach this.
Honestly, they need to come in at a price point lower than Hot Toys to try and persuade cutomers their way.

Somebody noted a similar price on the HT Supes figure, around $350, but have said that the initial MSRP that comes out of HT tends to be heavily inflated. I guess it is the same with UU and we'll see a much lower price. Mea culpa for pushing the $350 tag so hard :monkey1

[galactiboy]

I'd be curious if that means that EB will still oversee the final paint work or if we'd get Medicom paint on and EB sculpt :lol

Having said that the price is ridiculous and while its a beautiful sculpt I'll just stick with HT. Also, it could just be bad photos, but the body proportions look kind of funky to me :huh

[spindrift]

We all need EB just at least for competition with HT. That makes better product from both companies! It is all good...

[Lejuan]

This gets said a lot, but would EB's demise have any impact on HT in terms of quality, pricing and licensing? My guess is nope. The real competition will likely come from upstart companies like Blitzway, who've knocked their first release out of the park it seems. EB have a few solid licenses on the go, I think the next 6-12 months will be crucial for them as they are losing a lot of love of late. A solid UU Jack Sparrow release will go a long way to repairing some of the damage, but they still have work to do.

[viezure]

What i don't get is the pricing. I mean, one of their 1/6 figure is about 250 (which is a normal price for these figures), but something like their 1/4 bruce lee is cheaper. What's the logic behind this?

Enterbay's 1/4 ETD bruce got best statue of the year award at mcr and yet he's so cheap compared to ss pfs for example.

I thing EB is great and they should keep making 1/4s :)

My guess would be that the manufacturing process is far more complex for 1/6 characters, all the way through from design to assembly. Also, $250 should not be considered a normal price for 1/6. Yes the HT DX's have started creeping up to that mark, and a regular figure like Superman is now touching $200 - though probably the license was a factor in this. $250 might be normal for EB and Medicom, but that's not a general trend that we'd want to see in 1/6 pricing, at least not yet.

[Gipetto0812]

I still don't get why EB is getting so much flack for this. All they contributed to this was the HS. The rest is all Medicom. Even said on the second released teaser. It had the same evil looking Jack pic, but different wording. If I remember correctly it said "Produced by Medicom Toy Co., Distributed by Enterbay" :huh

[The Mike]

It's not only the skin tone difference but the face itself looks too big for the head which lends to that horrible photoshopped look. Honestly whether it's an EB figure or a Medicom figure the truth is that both companies put their names on the product. It is now representative of both companies and even more so, representative of the UU pairing. To me this figure is a strange piece. Matching that HS (if it is actually the HS) with such a plain body can't have seemed like a good idea.

[galmando]

i dont know if i'm alone on this, but i personally see more depp/sparrow in the Hot Toys sculpt than this Enterbay HS

i guess perception is a funny ol' thing

i'm considering getting the Jack Sparrow figure and it will from Hot Toys if i do, based on 2 reasons, one of which i've mentioned above and the second being that in my very short experience with 1/6 collectibles, i've heard and seen a lot of negativity surrounding the quality of EB

from what i can tell, their proto's look very nice but the final product is not, i don't know exactly how accurate this is, but coupled with the amount of time's i've heard that statement and then the recent BL Behind the Scenes rubber body 'fiasco' - i'd be very worried as a newbie pre-ordering anything from EB

it would seem that EB is getting the short end of both sticks, experienced collectors and cautious newbies

that ain't too good really

[Gipetto0812]

That's a very safe way to go. With HT, what you see it pretty much what you get or better, but they never go backward from my experience collecting HT. I personally see more Depp in the HT one as well, but I like this sculpt too. I don't think one is better than the other. They both have their own flaws. I think the real comparison will come once HT shows their smiling Jack sculpt.

[viezure]

Yeah, but for us poor saps not living in the US, if a figure is 200$, with shipping it will be at least 250$ :(

It had the same evil looking Jack pic, but different wording. If I remember correctly it said "Produced by Medicom Toy Co., Distributed by Enterbay" :huh

True, medicom should share in the success or blame for the UU figures, but the promo material mentions EB quite a few times, and medicom hardly gets a look in. The casual observer would be forgiven for thinking that EB were the main partner in the development and release of this figure.

Yeah, but for us poor saps not living in the US, if a figure is 200$, with shipping it will be at least 250$ :(

I hear ya, the saving grace for OZ collectors is that we only have to fork out for shipping, no additional taxes or duties or anything. Sucks to be a European/Brit collector with the shipping and the taxes.

[SAB]

pfff As Keating once said, 'we're at the *** end of nothing' :D
We've been burned with high shipping costs and no local distributors from federation until now.

The aussie dollar suddenly going through the roof combined with HT/EB being in HK (so its not that far to ship) has finally meant its not so bad - collector wise - from being in Oz.

Australian high five :hi5:

[Gipetto0812]

do ya'll think we'll see this up for PO with today's newsletter?

[eltigre15]

Go back a few pages. You are not alone. I found a pic online that most closely resembled the expression and the nose and the size of the eyes are off. Again, not that the HT is perfect but this does not seem any better. I'll have to try to find the pic again.

[Remy]

Its up for Pre-order now on SS site...$340!!! :horror
Well, there's goes my answer to which one I'll pick. Hot Toys it is then. I really like this sculpt...but not $340. Stupid Enterbay. I swear their marketing are the ones that are gonna nail them.

[xjamiex]

Hahahaha just saw this price for $340....why would anyone pay $340 for a half decent sculpt when you can get the Hot Toys Sparrow, which is superior in every department, PLUS, the rudder and whatnot.

Nice try, Enterbay.

[Darth Waller]

That price is just crazy. :lol

[EXOTICLEX]

how is this thing $340???

[LV702Eldar]

I'll stick with the HT Jack, that price is crazy!

http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=MED10568&mode=retail

Thx for the link but I was hoping SS would have it at HT price cause I was gonna use my $80 points. I was leaning on EB but there were 2 factors for me to choose this over Ht. One was price and the other was in hand quality. Dont wanna fall for the great proto but bad final product. Hopefully, I can find a loose headsculpt for this on ebay but I highly doubt anyone would part with it at this price.

I am seriously stunned by the price though. They know that they have to compete with HT to survive but they keep digging their own grave. They were also charging $300 for a Luke Skywalker that doesnt even look like Mark Hamill. I seriously prefer the $49 Sideshow. I dont see how they can surivive for another year.

[Gipetto0812]

Yea very surprised at the huge price. I wasn't planning on buying or anything, but it would've been cool to possibly get the Hat and Jacket from this figure. The both look better than HT IMO and would've looked great on the HT figure

[Darth Madden]

Still overpriced IMO, but it's $265 at BBTS:

http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=MED10568&mode=retail

Wow, $75 is a big difference. It was only like $25 for the DX Jack... I wonder why is so big this time. At that price its a little better and while it comes with the chalice the boat bottle is terrible and there's not much else there.... so still not worth it.

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Hard to justify the price tag for this item when compared to the HT package that seems to out class it for much cheaper.

I like EB and own a handful of their figures that I'm very happy with and try not to bash them, but it's time for them to re-evaluate their pricing for 1/6's b/c collector's can get equal or even better 1/6 figures from other companies. They are pricing themselves out of the market.

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

damn when i saw the price on this my jaw dropped, i'll stick with HT thanks

I now fear that EB's Leon the Professional will be around this price, mainly because he has all the accessories but also because Enterbay thinks they can get away with these prices (until they see their quarterly sales :lol)

Can I have a Leon please Hot Toys so I don't have to support Enterbay anymore ;)?

[Deckard]

Honestly EB is such a joke they should be ashamed.

First they partner up with Medicom, which is like Tom Cruise partnering up with a Rainman that can't count cards. It takes them 2 years to get a figure into production, and the competition with Hot Toys is outright going to kill them dead.

Its like opening up a Lemonade Stand to sell piss coffee for $60 a cup in front of a Starbucks. Just burn the stand down, collect the insurance, and be on your way Enterbay.

I am still kinda new to the 1/6 scene but I have to say I agree with the few people who don't see the likeness In this HS it looks nothing like him to me at all the HT sculpt isn't perfect but looks so much better to me honestly I wouldn't pay 100.00 for this figure I will agree the coat,hat,and hair look good but the rest looks like cheap junk that medicom always puts out.someone should put up a side by side photo of the HT and UU head sculpts I mean maybe it's just me but this is a no brainer HT all the way

The real joke is you guys still acting as though Enterbay did anything other than the headsculpt for this piece, of which most agree is better than the Hot Toys headsculpt. All problems with this figure come from Medicom. Skinny body, different colored skin, outrageous price, poor accessories, average fabrics. That's all Medicom's style.

[RIDDICK]

I like the fact that this is the third UU announcement and yet none of them saw the light.

Actually most people do not agree with that sentiment, even in this thread. And if you were to be fair and included those Freaks who only posted in the HT thread about the sculpts the poll would be in HT's favor by a landslide.

[Blade3327]

I understand how an electronic feature like the voice box would boost the price up, but that actually reduces appeal for me. Even as a kid, I hated that crap since it made figures seem so clunky and it felt like just another part that could eventually break.
Hot Toys has a great headsculpt too (arguably on the same level, just not quite as accurately-tanned as this one) with PERS. Plus the quality of the accessories like the ship-in-a-bottle is much higher on the HT figure, while this one's isn't quite as detailed. Let's not forget the fabric boots HT has, too.
With all that in mind, I think the biggest point to make is that the clothing on HT's Jack looks much better and fits well on the body. EB's version seems to sag down on his shoulders and appears cheap. Everything from the neck-down on this doesn't quite hold up. That and the face is a bit Photoshop-ish. Not sure what to make of that.

For $100 less, HT's is a steal in comparison (and it comes with more schtuff!). This guy here seems likely to end up on SSC's giftcard eligibility list. $350... nuts. I've never heard of a 1/6 figure going for secondary market prices before its release, and certainly not without good reason.

[Lejuan]

Voice box or no voice box, this is Enterbay/Medicom - this kind of price point is just how they roll.

[SnakeDoctor]

$339? Holy moly. I like the HT Sparrow better -- and I'd have passed on the HT at $339.

If I recall, Jack Bauer was less than $200 (maybe $180ish).

[Gipetto0812]

well the UU Luke Skywalker is out now and looks better than the proto IMO and the paint is phenominal so I think it's possibly safe to say that this figure will at least come out as good as the proto if not better

[Gipetto0812]

not that anyone else really cares about this figure, but I thought this was pretty cool. In this pic (taken from the EB HD T-800 thread), you can see EB's sparrow sculpt lying on the table close to the computer mouse

You're maybe right w/ their T-800 but we still haven't seen the final production piece and eventhough they beat them in that character, I'm not sure if 1 figure is enough to place them over HT. :monkey1

[Avenger]

I was aiming to defend HT on this one, but wow, if that T-800 isn't spot on. Point EB on that figure for sure.

While I would normally agree, but seeing how we've seen pics of multiple heads being painted that look as good as the one in the proto, I think we can at least say that the production sculpt and paint apps on the sculpt are better than HT

And I wasn't in anyway saying that the T-800 puts EB completely over HT. I was just saying that they've for once, done a better job than HT for a character that both have tackled (even though they are at diff scales). And at the same time saying that sculpt wise, EB did a great job on the Jack sculpt. I don't think one is better than the other as I like both, but I think the EB JS sculpt can atleast go toe to toe with the current HT sculpt. Might change once/if HT releases official pics of the smiling sculpt before the figures actually released and in hand.

:goodpost:

I'm really interested to see how this turns out for Eb/Medi. Like you've stated, EB has shown the ability to make amazing likeness sculpts just like HT and in a few cases perhaps even better. EB will have to go a long way in improving their QC control before even being considered on par with HT b/c as most of us know or have experienced, that's been EB' Achilles heel.

That being said, EB's latest sculpts have been very good/excellent in likeness - Bruce Lee, Arnie & Leon come to mind - so I'm excited to see how their Jack Sparrow turns out here. Knowing that they are in direct competition with the DX will hopefully bring out the best from them.

[Rorywan]

Apart, from the boots I think it looks fantastic.
Let's hope the Medi clothes and body are as good as the sculpt!

I own the UU Luke Skywalker. I know it has it's fair share of problems but I love it.

[Gipetto0812]

I'm very curious to know how good the talking feature is.

[TeXaZMsM87]

The talking feature is the only thing that worries me on this with the speaker being under multiple layers of clothing, it may effect the sound quality. I also can't help but picture a pull string on the back of him.:lol

[Mephisfilms]

It´s hard to make a choice between HT and Eb Versions...is this the best one?

[EXOTICLEX]

I like the hot toys version but whichever one u think is best matters the most.

[Rorywan]

I think they both look pretty cool. The HT version has the wow factor, the costume, the accessories, the boots the hat, but there is something about the EB one that keeps pulling me back to it.
:)

[samueljd]

The head looks good, but the body looks odd, even with all those layers of clothing.

[TeXaZMsM87]

If the sculpt looks good on the final release, I may pick it up on eBay. It's the only part that looks good to me.

if I could afford it, I'd like to get this too. I preferably like to own "different" figures which usually turns into figures "most" collectors don't want/look over

I love the sculpt and head altogether. The real cloth bandana, the dreads, the reindeer shin bone. it all looks great.

I'm also curious as to what other hands he comes. the hands he comes with just look like "gesture" hands

The boots really aren't that bad in person. They're definitely the same boots from the original medi release, and I can assure you that these pics make the boots look really bad

:exactly:Completely agree man, this seems more and more attractive to me. I love the fabric bandana as well. I think if you can afford this and the HT version you could put together the ultimate Sparrow. The one thing I love on these EB heads is how good the skin looks inhand. :clap:clap

[spindrift]

EB's Sparrow head is magnificent- so is HTs...just some subtle differences in character look and attitude. If EB's Sparrow was price wise close to HTs I'd buy- too bad it's not!

[Unclechopchop]

I seriously couldn't care less about the whole Hot Toys Vs. Enterbay thing. I don't even plan on getting either version.
But, what I DO want to point out is, the Enterbay version looks no different from the earlier Medicom Jacks from past releases, with the exception of an upgraded head sculpt and a cloth head band. I think they are seriously jacking their customers big time.
Just an opinion, so fire away. Its like I said before, I don't plan on getting either. I'm just trying to point out the obvious to anybody that was on the fence on which one to get.

have to say that you are quite wrong there mate. (I don't want the following to come off as rude or anything, just giving the facts :wave)

1)This isn't just an Enterbay figure, It's an Ultimate Unison which is Enterbay and Medicom working together

2) This isn't the original medi figure with just a better sculpt. I have the original medi and this is not it. The only piece that is from the original medi figure for certain are the boots. The hat even looks slightly different, though that could be the same as well. The original flintlock pistol from the first 3 movies and sword could be the same but I'd need to see more pics.
that Jacket is entirely new as well as the rest of the clothing. Nothing besides what I've stated above is a repeat of clothing. The clothing, including the belts, is entirely new.
The UU hands are also entirely different. the original medi hands had literally NO detail on them but the ones they've shown have detail in the rings, and "wrinkle" detail as well as better paint.

[Rorywan]

:dunno:dunno Well, everyone is entitled to their opinion, I have a Medi jack and I can tell you it looks nothing like this. You seem to separate the head sculpt as if it's not part of the figure, it's the main part of the figure! Well certainly the most expensive part along with the base body. Of course I think this is too expensive, most UU releases are. But if you like it enough then it's worth whatever price you pay for it.

I don't think these clothes look as simplistic as previous medi Jacks.
If it wasn't for the headsculpt and detailing I might agree with you.

[Gipetto0812]

^^Exactly Rory. If anyting besides the headsculpt screams different, it's got to be the shirt or the jacket. Both look a lot better than the original medi figure

[Gipetto0812]

so i just found this really hi-res pic and 2 things stood out to me that I had not seen/noticed: 1) he comes with the chicken foot. and 2) if you look at the end tips of the hair, it looks like there are "real" pieces of hairs coming "undone" from the dreads

still the proto. It was supposed to be released last month (Sept) but now seems like SS has the date moved to october just like the DX Jack

[NewGoblin23]

I think if this was cheaper, i'd buy it in a heart beat. Looks nicer to me than the Hot Toys one, but the HT one just looks like more bang for your buck.

Doesn't look bad and i really like the mouth area. But i don't know about the likeness, maybe his face is a little too long?

[Gipetto0812]

not bad, but would definitely like to see more pics and hopefully a vid of the talking feature

the one thing I'm noticing is that the dreads looked to be individual pieces in the proto but not it seems that the majority of the dreads are molded together. that hair also looks a bit too dark.

[EVILFACE]

Going to be the greatest figure ever???? Ever???

[DinoLast]

http://www.cyber-kat.com/potc/images/jackSparrow3800.jpg

I agree, the forehead looks ridiculous.

The clothing and belts also look a little cheap to me -- too bight and plasticy.

This prod head has a better expression than the evil proto though. But I don't see this as superior to HT in any way at all.

EB's still has the better likeness imo (and we are now seeing actual production pics from EB and it still looks good!). I can see what they tried to do with Hot Toys version though...Just not very Depp (still yet to see the smirk face granted) and not as good as their Sweeney Todd either...

Head sculpt is definitely better on the enterbay one. Rest.. not so much.

I don't know why I have such a hard time seeing it. Many people seem to concur that the EB has a better likeness. Did I miss a great pic or something that showed the likeness off really well?

Look at the above comparison: one looks like a toy, the other looks like a movie still. To me anyway.

I don't know why I have such a hard time seeing it. Many people seem to concur that the EB has a better likeness. Did I miss a great pic or something that showed the likeness off really well?

Look at the above comparison: one looks like a toy, the other looks like a movie still. To me anyway.

Don't forget, we're talking strictly about the head. And i think enterbay's looks better and more like depp.

[Wor-Gar]

Oh, I missed the part about just the head.

In that case, I like that EB has a real scarf... but I still think HT's looks better to me. But until I start to see production pics, I'll reserve the right to change my mind.

Any good in-hand pics of EB's?

[Restaurajones]

It's for you to decide :dunno

No discussion here, Ht wins in all the ways incluse if the price is the same.

Medicom had the problem of the skinny bodies

[SAB]

Don't get people saying the Enterbay sculpt is better but to each their own.

But sweetzombiejesus on that price difference!?!?
It would be hard to justify even if the Enterbay figure is the one that came with the sweet wheel, but its the Hot Toys figure with the awesome accessory as well!?!

[EVILFACE]

It's for you to decide :dunno



http://i690.photobucket.com/albums/vv262/RIDDICK0911/PotC/JSparrow/JS_comp_u.jpg

Wow. There is no comparison between the two. HT is clearly the better figure.

I don't see where the extra $100 is justified.

[Shep]

I don't see where the extra $100 is justified.

I believe EB/Medicom have installed some _____ty voice box thingy...For me the head sculpt is the one and only seller on this piece...Swap EB's head onto Hot Toys jack tailoring and you'll have one hell of a Sparrow figure...I hate 'Pers' to...It's a good job Jack Sparrow IS wearing eye liner...

[Gipetto0812]

I liked the original headsculpt and thought it really looked a lot like Depp, but this new one looks too narrow and too long now and now I definitely think the HT has a stronger Depp likeness than this one. And the repetitive usage of pieces from the original Jack Sparrow like the plastic wrist wrap, boots and inaccurate compass and pistol just makes the price really ridiculous to me. And it looks like the embossed pattern on the baldric belt doesn't look to be there any more :slap. That voice box better make it sound like Depp is right in front or me to justify the price they're asking for it.

[dvdwyn]

perhaps on the blue batik vest and bigger blue stone ring? :)
overall, Hottoys version looks so much better..

[Monger]

Well Ultimate Unison figures are always really expensive. Who knows why though. Enterbay is often pretty reasonable with their prices and Medicom isn't too outrageous usually.

[TeXaZMsM87]

The only thing this figure had going for it was the headsculpt. Now it looks nothing like Depp and the hair is black not dark brown like it should. The clothing looks really cheap IMO and the boots are just pathetic. I really wanted this to turn out great and would've gotten the sculpt off eBay for the right price, but now I'll just save my money. HTs FOR THE WIN!!!!!

[cr`]

what was the point of the unison again? the only good thing about the fig is the head sculpt, and that is purely eb's. so what's medi's contribution on this? isnt the point of partnering with another company so you could come up with a better product, not worse?

[jayveeeusebio]

License, some cheap accessories..:monkey1

[Silasya77]

I bet Medicom came up with the idea of an Ultimate Unison. :lol :monkey1:

[Rorywan]

I getting both.

[Gipetto0812]

Hope your pics make this new sculpt look better man. I'm really not digging this anymore unfortunately

[Rorywan]

I know what you mean, it has started to look a bit weird.
Hopefully it will look better inhand, some of those pics look a bit strange as well. I like the idea of having two alternate versions of the same character. We will see!

Wow.
Tottaly agree with that.

HT is far superior.

That's the production head? I think that looks AMAZING!
Lets see what the HT production version looks like (I have ordered that as well, so no bias here).


:clap:yess:

[Shep]

I have to agree with Rorywan...That looks excellent! Hot Toy's smiling sculpt has ALOT to live up to...

[Silasya77]

Lips look a bit too big, but other than that, I see total Depp.

Can't help it... Every madafokin time I see EB's production head... IT'S ORANGE!!!
Really the likeness is great but this skin tone and the rest of the figure... Blah

[Lejuan]

This is freakin' awesome, I mean I can't see Depp in that sculpt at all. I would go and get my eyes checked, and maybe a brain scan for good measure, but all that'd do is make me want to spend an extra hundred bucks on a figure I'm otherwise happy to pass on. I'll stick with the inferior HT, which in my twisted world is the vastly better figure, and has the added bonus of no voice feature.

Looks pretty accurate to me? He is pretty orange in the movie. And his face is a lot fatter in Stranger Tides.

There's a big difference between a tan and orange.

Man if this is the production piece, I think it looks great! To me, the skin tone/tan looks just right. The hair color is what's wrong. It shouldn't be that dark. Can't wait to see more pics of the full figure in hand

[surfin4]

more of a gypsy then a pirate.....stick with hts

[galactiboy]

Head looks good, but still my overall preferences is for the HT version.

I want that head!!
:rock!

Problem is, the rest of the body is pretty average, so the head will be very expensive on it's own.

From the photos the sculpt is really nicely done. It captures Depp pretty well. I hate to say but it might rival Hot Toy's likeness.

The HT smiling sculpt still has a chance to best this EB sculpt, but when compared to the serious sculpt, I have to agree. I wonder how much this sculpt will go for parted out, a crazy amount I would imagine.

Yep.
EB can do awesome figures with awesome tayloring. The only thing they still suck HT's nuts - bodys.

[dominishin]

Wtf does it matter what HT's smiling sculpt ends up like? The normal sculpt is already better than EB's. Proof:
