Re: Molecule8 (New company)

Seems they got the best in the business to work on these. Some official news would be nice.

Re: Molecule8 (New company)

pricing will be next

These figures could be pricy and unleash premium prices for HT.

Yes indeed. Be careful what you wish for, right?

I thought Hot Toys already had premium prices! $250 for a barebones figure these days, sounds premium to me.

I saw a body 3D modeled for Snape. If they are going that far, prices will be out of reach for most collectors. I wonder if they are trying to bridge the high end custom world with licensed figures? Going to be pricey.

Where did you see that model, Robbie?

I think it was some where on face book.

Re: Molecule8 (New company)

If they could keep it under 300$, that would be perfect, but I suppose it will be just as with Tamashii Nations C-3PO.

Re: Molecule8 (New company)

Yea if they are going to be offering $500+ 1/6 scale figures, I couldn't care less about em.

Same here. If it's a mass produced (more than 222) doll of a human character then it shouldn't be more than $230.

Re: Molecule8 (New company)

I admit I'm very excited to see full specs on even one of their figures.

 

[EVILFACE]

Re: Molecule8 (New company)

But the passion, bro. The passion justifies the extra monies.

Re: Molecule8 (New company)

I'm looking forward to the discussions around here when something is unveiled more. With yesterday's news that Kato is involved too, they're looking more and more legit.

IWith yesterday's news that Kato is involved too

Woah... Let's back up just a little bit. I didn't post that quote to imply Kato was involved in the company, only to show that another well-regarded person in high-end 1/6 know of the licensing.

He may be involved, may be one of the founders, or maybe not at all, etc... But I don't know about that and AFAIK, no one's mentioned nor confirmed it. This is how alternative facts get started.

Re: Molecule8 (New company)

Ain't it cool? Ok he might not be involved. I just assumed since he vouched.

You sure quoted him like it was fact that these guys have the licence for all these figures.
