Hot Toys - DX16 / DX17 - The Phantom Menace - Darth Maul and Sith Speeder

[Wor-Gar]

BTW, where do you get the prices from?

Mk VII looks sexy too.

I hope HT revises that Laughing Maul head... to a more traditional teeth-gritted version.

Like when they changed teeth-bared smiling Sparrow in the DX06 to just a smirk. So a change here has precedence.

I love this head sculpt! I like dynamic poses and at least this is a very expressive, intense face.

I'll settle for the regular edition as I did for the Emperor. I have to cut costs on these figures where I can.

I hope so too.

I like the speeder , but I’ll grab the regular Maul because I’m sure the cost is more

Though speeder is tempting, I have to avoid it.

Small but hopefully not underscaled like the SS figure appeared to be.

Don’t think you own it. It wasn’t underscaled.

The more I see these close ups the more I don't like it now. I'd also be for a sculpt change to a gritted teeth pose.

Should post the sculpt and Belluchi pic together and put it in their FB stream or something to get the message to them.

Figure looks nice but its hard to get excited knowing that this might be in the $260+ price range. There comes a point where the asking price become more than the figure is worth. I think my sweet spot is $219 (maybe an extra $10 on top). That’s why I couldn’t do the DX15 Jack Sparrow and purchased the head/face plates only for my DX06.

Some of the turbo-idiot comments here...

"HE NEVER SCREAMS IN THE MOVIE UGHHHHHH NOT ACCURATE!!"

I think my main gripe with the open mouth head is it doesn't look like Park. Closed mouth mostly does.

I think it's a fair criticism... I can't think of any time he makes that expression; it's not fitting with the character so it's a fail.

I can't believe I'm going all in on the PT.


But nothing makes old crap smell better than fresh crap. And the ST is pretty stinky.

ST movies are better quality but the PT has A LOT of cool stuff in it. Great designs and characters.

Yeah, it's interesting how much impact these PT characters actually have. Before Hot Toys, I never realized how much I actually like them. These figures even made me wanna watch the PT again.

Not quite yet. I’m sitting on the bench more rather than a all star playing on the field. Become wiser to Quality not Quantity!!

2nd headsculpt is basically artistic expression, something like these...

That's smarter. I still have quantity issues.

C’mon BBTS what’s the hold up with the preorder announcement
