November for 1/4 Mk 42?....yeah...whatever you wish to believe......

I see why Hot Toys is concentrating on Iron Man now. They're afraid of losing their biggest cash cow to Play Imaginative.

They have nothing to worry about- the 1/12 line is piss poor and the 1/4 line is too expensive for just "good" quality. These come nowwhere near HT.
I do agree HT is going toe to toe with PI on so many announcements but is there any doubt who will "win" here??

How are they "piss poor" - they haven't even been released yet?

I agree about the 1/4, less detailed prototype pics than HT 1/6 releases and too expensive if you plan on collecting 42 armors.

I think it's possible. You can see all 5 sculpts finally being shown @stgcc & all interchangeable damaged parts were also shown. I think they're almost done.

Haven't seen the 1/12 myself. My friend says that the war machine mark 2 @stgcc display case was still made of plastic so he bought 1 pcs. He said that it was very nice.
the 1/4 is yet to be seen, but I agree it's almost impossible for PI to beat HT.

The Mk.2 War Machine and Starboost are now up at Alteregocomics, for $585 each!

I'm still waiting for in-hand pics.
I don't want to be the guinea pig at those prices.

Piss Poor?
I think Monger and Whiplash look great, I am defo having them in Diecast. I also think the 1/12 is ideal for people on a low budget who cannot afford Hot Toys but may be able to stretch to these.

Yeah that is a hefty price tag for stuff that is of highly questionable quality- I like MK 42 but some of the other prototypes looked rushed. Even at $585 they have to be top-notch for me to consider...

 

[Darth Kimchi]

How are they able to fork out that many armours so fast? Dang.

It's worth noting those are not EX versions so you don't get the extra head sculpts. But still about $15 cheaper than BBTS.

I'd like to believe that. But they are not making just one, they're making a whole bunch of them. And also those head sculpts are supposed to be hand painted too.

By putting old pre-orders on hold

But they managed to release 1/12 wm mark 2 & irin patriot, also super alloy superman. So maybe.... just maybe... this won't get delayed
Did anyone here have picture of mark 1 inside the hoa?
I'll be sure to get that if they're making one

Mark XL - Shotgun

Mmmmm Shotgun....I want you so bad...

 

[Titanchuck]

Still waiting on more preorders from bbts

I saw that info in a forum too. That's too bad. HT is going to get all my money first. I guess there won't be any 1/4 IM this year since War Machine and Starboost won't be out this year either.

This thing was never going to be released this year PI were crazy with their release dates. But HT sucks at it as well...

Ah whatever
