Terminator encompasses four films. (Terminator, Terminator 2, Terminator 3, Terminator: Salvation) HT has supported them all.
makes no sense
They did okay then without them, why not now? because they have become too reliant on those licenses.... and the greed.
I dont recall HT doing any from the third (thats why i didnt list it)
BATMAN SERIES:
The Dark Knight: MMS71 (11/2008) -> DX02 (2/2010)
Batman Begins: MMS12 (6/2006) -> MMS67 (8/2008) -> Bruce Wayne TF Exclusive (10/2011)
Joker: MMS68 (8/2008) -> Banker Joker (12/2008) / DX01 (11/2009)
IRON MAN SERIES:
Iron Man Mk I: MMS80 (8/2009) -> V2 (2012??)
Iron Man Mk II: MMS78 (4/2009) -> Unleashed (12/2011)
Iron Man Mk III: MMS75 (1/2009) -> Battle Damaged MMS110 (4/2010)
Iron Man Mk IV: MMS123 (12/2010) -> Iron Man Mk IV Gantry w/Mk IV Figure (4/2012) - Alternates: Secret Project (Grey) and Stealth Armor (Blue)
If you are mad that this is getting rereleased, you are lame.
Yeah Hot Toys knows what they're doing! of course they do, one word Noland
I do see why the MK2 & MK3 from the original Ironman 1 series needs re-issues as they look like toys when compared to the Ironman 2 series figs. But I don't really see how HT can make a 'better' MK1 too besides the face sculpt. Wonder what's the reason for this re-issue
However I will say, the time of buying HT off Ebay is OVER. I will never again consider paying over retail for ANY HT product from now on. Its not worth the risk.
I really am getting sick of HT doing all of these remakes now. If people didn't jump on the items back when they are available, that is their problem and they can pay the current going rate for those items. HT is really going to shoot themselves in the foot with all of these rereleases because people are going to stop buying V1s of items just to wait for the better V2.
The only thing needing improvement on the Mark 1 was the Tony sculpt. And frankly you should have the helmet down anyway so it could have been a generic face under there for all I cared.
If they insist on rereleasing figures that go for large sums of money, they need to do them from different filmes. Ie Wolverine. Make him in his Logan outfit from any of the original 3 X-men films. People who own the original will be happy and those that missed out will be happy. Just remaking just to remake really take away from these being 'limited edition' collectibles.
