Hot Toys logo changing colour and getting slimey...why?

[Kuzeh]

I'm sorry to say this... because I really love this forum and the people on it, but some you people are inconsiderate morons.

Just because there's a company doing a license that you have no interest in... then the company is 'wasting resources' when they could be making something 'for you'? ..really???

It's not like they thought "hey.. we could do Back to the Future... no wait... ^^^^ that... lets do Mars Attacks instead... that'll piss some people off!!"

they're not taking anything away from you... they're simply giving something to those of us who would like things in our collections other than the regular, predictable summer blockbusters of the day.

Why would you want to take away the chance for us to own something that we like... ? Simply because you don't like it??

....that's just selfish.

I can understand people saying "i have no interest in this film, therefore I won't be buying this" ...hell, I've said this about a LOT of the stuff Hot Toys has made.

But to say "what the hell are they doing? I'm disgusted!! Hot Toys You better change your minds!! you owe us better figures!!" (which is in essence what a lot of you have been saying) ..... is both inconsiderate, and stupid.

There... rant over. I've pissed off a bunch of you. Time to go back to work lol

!!

Some people sound like 30 y.o. spoiled brats....

Well then I guess i'm just an inconsiderate moron then. I'm just not sure whats worse though, someone complaining about a license or calling someone a moron over a toy.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

You. You're worse. To clarify TheTerminator is the worst....and I bet you waste your 10,000th post.

Sir, you maybe right ... But don´t we, who don´t like the concept of a Mars Attacks HT Figue Line, have a right to express ourself ? Just like all the guys who all of a sudden out them self as Mars Attacks Otakus ?

Why would you want to take away the chance for us to own something that we like... ? Simply because you don't like it??

....that's just selfish.

Nobody wants to take away anything from you Sir or anybody else. Even if we wanted to, how should we do this ? Some guys even compared Mars Attacks with Aliens and Terminator. Sorry, I believe this is nonsense. Its like comparing apples with peaches. Aliens and Terminator are truly Masterpieces in Film History. Which Mars Attacks is not.

To get this straight : When the predictions are true and HT releases this Line, then I am not buying any of them, because I don´t like the designs of the martians. I wish they were doing something else instead.

One more thing ... I know that there are many people who think about it almost the same way as I do. Maybe they are not speaking up, because they will get flamed over this. Like always ...

I understand that the Mars Attacks movie is pretty silly but the trading cards that spawned it are not. The trading cards have a fandom all their own.

This fandom is much like the Transformers or GI Joe crowd that have great toys and cartoons are horrible films. Just because the films suck doesn't mean what came before them isn't amazing.

To be honest, I wasn´t aware that these trading cards have such a high value. They are maybe cool. I don´t know. I have never been into trading cards. But this HT Series is called Movie Masterpiece.

 

[wHySoSeRiOuS203]

well... I for one am one of the many that does not want Mars figures if you're happy about the release then more power to you however if you're not you're not in the minority

Donut Man? i know what their reffering to but WTF?
the "Goodfather?" i kill you later haha? what is going on?
I guess its their comic con announcements, theres supposed to be alot

 

[W.G]

I can hardly find 2 masterpieces in this "masterpiece collection". This name is a good joke. Aliens of mars attacks are masterpieces of design in a very good film. And have a look at the cards. Considering it was done for children 40 years ago, it's one of the most crazy and amazing thing of the "pop culture" I know.

You complain that Darren used the word "moron" but excessive reactions of some people here were like saying that you have to be a moron to like Mars Attacks.

 

[thecapn]

Haven't you guys heard, "If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all?"

I agree with Darren. I, for one, am not interested in Mars Attacks. But I'm not going to come in here and say how much it sucks, either.

I love Hot Toys, especially their quality, but thus far all I've bought is TDK and POTC stuff from them. Why? Because I simply have no interest in anything else. Never got the Alien or Predator thing.

Now, am I going to go into a thread about ANY of those and blast them? NO! Because I was told not to say anything if you don't have anything nice to say.

If the figures were released and you saw a flaw, fine. But don't just blast it just because you don't want one.

I was never a fan of Batman. I didn't watch TDK and I probably never will. I could careless for TDK figures. However, I realize that TDK is extremely popular and would never criticize HT for making TDK figures.

On the other hand, making fun of HT for possibly doing Mars Attacks figures is a different story because there are probably only 3 people on the Earth who love Mars Attacks. I'm trying to think of a movie that would be even sillier to make figures for and can't come up with anything. Maybe The Garbage Pail Kids??
