Hot Toys Making The Matrix?

[SpawnFan]

For some reasons the powers that be still can not live in a world without regions so even Blu-Ray movies are locked in place, some aren't but most are.

 

[The_One]

I think I would need a Merovingian and the wolf brothers,that would look great with my collection.

Oh and if poss, a nude Persephone. i know there is no such thing in the film,but OMG that would be the dogs dangles!!

I'll keep hoping against hope for 12" figures. But if it doesn't happen, Triad's effort is more than enough consolation!

 

[The_One]

Who is Triad Toys?? that is a new one on me? Any pictures of there stuff?

 

[SpawnFan]

Triad is a company that makes small runs of certain figs, they usually sell them on evilbay.

They also have a website but I don't see any Matrix figures there.

Anyone have the Theodore DXF with the leather coat? opinions?

They also have a website but I don't see any Matrix figures there.

They have unofficial costumes there.
Take these:
https://www.triadestore.com/eyespy-male-p-1973.html
Add this:
https://www.triadestore.com/knight-runner-male-p-1976.html
And this:
https://www.triadestore.com/nexus-male-black-holster-p-1941.html
And you have 90% of Neo's costume from the first movie. All you need is his boots, waist belt, thigh holsters and a lot of guns.

For Trinity from the first movie, all you need is this:

For Neo from Reloaded, you'll need either the Male Chosen One outfit and their sai set, or the full Chosen one figure set they made awhile ago called Theodore which also had a Keanu looking head sculpt. Both are not listed on Triad's website anymore, here's what the Theodore figure looked like:

Yep I've got the triad leather jacket neo.

Head sculpt is pretty good & so is the paint job...

The figure comes with shoes, leather pants, leather trench coat, metal sunglasses, a pair of sais. No shirt.

The body that Triad Toys uses has bendy hands which is probably the best feature of the whole body, because the other aspects aren't very good. The body doesn't pose very well & the clothes doesn't look very good on it.

I've since repalced it with a hot toys truetype body & it looks so much better now...if you guys are interested in pics with a hot toys body let me know, i'll go get the cam.

The sunglasses are decent... but not as good as the ones made for Medicom Neo (i've got both). The problem with the sunglasses is that it is too flat & it doesn't hug the head; so the sleekness is lacking... also, the metal is quite tough to bend so it would be really difficult to bend the thing uniformly.

Finalyl, as for the clothing itself, the pants are quite tight so extreme leg poses are difficult.
Trench coat is well done..tight due to the leather material & the styling of the costume in general, but i'm still able to get credible upperbody movement. But having said that, I wouldn't recommend leaving the arms posed in awkward positions to long as I suspect it might leave marks on the leather.

Thanks - yes GSTG is where I found the Theodore.

And thanks for the review willowcrew - I'd love to see pix.

***********************************************************
The figure below has the Hot TOys truetype body.
The original body triadtoys used was swapped out cuz it didn't look as good.
***********************************************************

***Notice in picture 5 (figure's back), the left shoulder appears slightly higher than the right; this is due to a slight asymmetry in the tench coat stitching.

I have to find a way of obtaining that Nebuchadnezzar hovercraft!!!

I don't care if I have to re-purchase the DVD's. That model ship looks amazing with it's light-up features.

1/6th figures would be fantastic as well, but it's the ship and possible sentinel that has me most excited about Hot Toys' license.

PF's of the characters would be fantastic if SS were to do them. I'd prefer them over the 1/6th line. Neo in fighting pose, Morpheus sitting in his leather chair and Trinity with two uzi's. Sweet!*

*All from the first film.

Great pix willocrew - I think they're the best I've seen for capturing Keanu's likeness (shame about those sunnies ...)

 

[MwNN]

I like willocrew's pics as well. Kinda weird with the left shoulder. I think the likeness is pretty good. My Theodore's still stuck in his box. One day I'll set him free.

 

[The_One]

Those Pics rock

The jacket is amazing!

How much do you want for him

 

[Mooncat]

[willocrew]

Thanks for the comments guys...

Although I'm still trying to work out how some people manage to pull off those ultra sharp close up pics with their cameras haha.

*By the way, MwNN, does your Theodore figure have the slight asymmetry in the trench coat shoulder stitching?

The jacket is amazing!
How much do you want for him

I'm in Australia mate.. so I don't think you'll be too keen to buy from me..
Shipping charges; the blight to Australian 1/6th collectors.

 

[Prime Clone]

Feel free to keep posting Theo pics from all possible angles!

 

[chilipep66]

neo, smith, morpheus and trinity would all be must haves!
