Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim (UPDATED Oct 3)

ADDED PART 1 QUESTIONS

Re: Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim

RAIDEN OMG!

No new die-cast in the near future.

Re: Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim

Thanks for the intelligible translation. Seems weird to me to go after MGS 4 and Res. Evil 6 since they aren't really classics, but aren't new enough to capitalize on the hype. I wish they would do earlier games in those franchises.

Re: Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim

So no more die cast for a while because so many of the first 3 were sold. Interesting. That definitley means we'll see more die cast in the future. It still makes me wonder @ Iron Whiplash. That does at least explain why we've seen and hear comments about IW being plastic and die cast.

Re: Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim

Resident Evil 6?

Re: Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim

So if I read right, Anakin will be announced this year still?

The Shield figures would be interesting.

Re: Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim

I want an Old Snake so badly. And seeing that a new SW figure will be revealed this year is awesome.

Re: Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim

Yay, no star trek, can't agree any more

Diecast Endoskeleton

Re: Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim

I like his last two comments of the interview.

Re: Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim

Btw, shouldnt this be in the general discussion?

Re: Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim

Diecast Endo, MGS and BTTF news

Re: Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim

Thanks for this mate.

Howard, really no point in apologizing to the competitors for taking all the licenses and doing absolutely ****all with it!

Iron Man , Batman , Iron Man , Batman....ad infinitum.

Re: Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim

Well. . .news on those franchises that isn't really substantive news. We've heard similar things about BTTF for, what, a couple of years now? Don't hold your breath.

LOL True dat. They gobble up licenses and just sit on them. But honestly, it's not like Enterbay or Blitzway or someone was realistically going to tackle some of the high profile (and no doubt high cost) licenses HT does have. Also, there are plenty of great older films that no one is touching.

I'm not but at least he gave some info other than "Delayed" and an actual statement on where they are with it.

Of course I'm not surprised they plan on releasing 2/3 versions. Would have preferred a DX with multiple outfits or a package like the DX07.

Need to milk it as they say.

Re: Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim

I like that he said he's not a fan of Star Trek, so he's not doing it.

Re: Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim

What about Batman Returns...

Re: Howard Chan Interview Session - Toy People - trans. by Charles Lim

Would have put this in General Collectibles section but I guess its not a joke anymore that Hot Toys = Stark Toys.

Anyway I wish these questioners would ask about not-previously announced Terminator items. Its always endoskeletons and 1:4 Police Shootouts. Why not ask if they're making Kyle Reese, a 1:6 version of Police Shootout, young John Connor etc etc.
