Hot Toys - MMS157- Sucker Punch: Babydoll

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

I'm not a business man, but if they release each of these for the same price as spider-man, i'd get all of them to have the whole team.

Where as if they just release these two for a higher price it wont add up to what i'd be willing to pay if each was character was cheaper, but the team was completed over the course of a year.

That is because smart business's don't fill their warehouse with movies that failed at the box office.

According to Nielsen's videoscan for blu ray/dvd releases - Sucker Punch has been number one in sales for two weeks now. That sounds like it's doing pretty well.

It is certainly not Yullis best work. Maybe she has been away from sculpting too long.

Regardless...

Female collector's deserve female character's I guess. With that in mind, I will show these 2 to my GF in hope she will become addicted too. Just imagine it fella's...

Maybe these aren't so bad after all?

 

[bicrod]

Wonder when these will go up for pre-order ?

I completely disagree with those who think Yulli didn't do a good job on this. There's just something soft and subtle about the features. She managed to capture the character in a moment of quiet intensity, where the eyes and lips are determined, but not overdone.

This matches Baby Doll pretty well considering how she is depicted in the movie. When she was in the fantasy world, she was just sublime most of the time.

The more I look at it, the more I like it.

If the PO doesn't go up tomorrow, I imagine it will be within the next week or so.

Actually, they made this movie just for you.

Face is awful IMO, and the legs are out of proportion. Browning is tiny, and not as skinny.

The actual production version could still be great though..

What are you talking about? Her body proportions is one of the spot on things about this fig. They made her pretty short next to Amber (which is good), but I guess we don't know how short that is in comparison to other HT.

But oh, we really do tend to pick and choose what we criticize I suppose...

I feel pretty bad for Yulli and JC on this. I think they did a really nice job with the character, but so many people are dumping on them like it's the worst thing ever. "Horrible"? "Awful"? I can see if people aren't getting the likeness to Emily Browning (although I'm actually pretty satisified she's there), but those kinds of descriptions are baffling to me. Could it be tweaked to look even more like Emily Browning from all possible angles? Maybe. But saying how bad this is...wow.

People blow **** out of proportion all of the time. Yes it's annoying. Like how some people post a pic of someone else the character looks nothing like as a "clever" joke.

Quote I hate the most: "Fig looks nothing like ________." Well its obviously not *** damn jesus.

Never noticed the engraving on the sword, cool.

Blah Blah Blah. Same old response chanted a thousand times on this board. Its a broken record. Id like to see more constructive criticism than more than 90% of the derogatory statements I hear in almost EVERY thread on this board. Of course this isnt charity work! But these people work hard to achieve just what you guys come to spend the big bucks on. And imo they deserve every penny for their work. Just like the Sucker Punch customs the guy made that were shown in the last thread, you people dont realize that these have already been through approvals from many other people. And the sculpt obvious got the green light. And people claiming they dont see the actress, well thats obviously based on opinion now, aint it? Cause for me I see Emily Browning in most of those shots. And one final thing, this is also a PROTO-TYPE. As with MANY past HT releases, the final product usually come out looking better than that shown in the Proto-pics. So instead of being so harsh, I think a lot of you folks should give HT they same kind of respect you would a fellow freak customizer.

I dont see people bashing some truely awful (not naming names) custom work on here. Its always lollipops and rainbows praising those people on how great their work is. But as soon as the newest HT figure is release its shat on before you have the figure in hand. Its a bunch of bollocks to me.

Thanks a lot bro, you totally say what I wanted to say in the previous Sucker Punch thread. People can sing praises like it's the second coming for mediocre customs but a 99% HT will get hell.

It's funny with people, when they are the underdog, we can excuse any mistakes but when they make it big, nothing they do is right anymore.

I think the much revered Tim Miller rant should apply here. HT don't really need approval from you guys because it has already been approved by the movie studios and whatever relevant party but I still see HT taking the effort in listening to fan feedback to improve the product more even when they don't need too. I think we should cut HT some slack.

I mentioned this in another thread before, people can still defend EB and Medi even when they really suck but people will lynch HT even when there is nothing else in the market even close to what they are offering.

Well said, i think the same thing, some people just wait for it to be bad and if they arent blown away its labelled as horrible.

IMO, there is room for improvement, but the folks who did this did a good job, not a job worthy of the constant critisism they get.

Side note: hot chick figure + metal katana + MP7 (my favourite gun) = Buy!

(Now we need a Kill Bill Bride with Metal Hanzo Sword!!!!!)

 

[dominishin]

Pic overload!!

Awesome.

 

[JosephCPR]

I love the way she turned out. Not as perfect/accurate as Amber, but still an awesome figure IMO. It seems to me I am relly going to try to get them

 

[nash]

It's Jewel as babydoll.

Didn't know it was known by any other name other than Sucker Punch I see some peeps not too impressed with this figure. I think it's good (perfect? no). I think Babydoll is so good that I'm thinking about getting Amber as well, even though I'm not really that interested in Amber's character.

Consider this pre ordered when it goes up
