This most exciting thing about this? The idea of Thor palling around with Rocket and Groot. Might be the best part about Avengers 3.

Yep. Pumped for this.

*updated the description, please could a mod change the title to Rocket and Groot set ? thank you

You can do that by editing your post in "Go Advanced".

So poor Rocket is going to have his mouth permanently agape? It doesn't seem like asking for an articulated jaw would hurt the head sculpt much.

The problem with both versions of Chewie was the face proportions, something that wasn't addressed and made worse on the TFA Chewie. I don't think the articulating jaw is really to blame here.

Looking between IW and GOTG2 Rocket they seem to be identical in sculpt and costume.

The only saving grace is that the GOTG2 closed muzzle head should match the fur colour of IW Rocket.

AH-HA! So they get us buy forcing you to buy both versions of Rocket........clever.

Thanks mate I've not set up many threads before so still learning, much appreciated though

After seeing GOTG 2 for like the 5th time recently, would love to see a full-on fur Rocket. He was like ESB Chewie in that movie

Re: 1/6 Hot Toys - Infinity War- Rocket Raccoon

Rocket's new gun will be the draw for some buyers, but for me it's just having another Rocket.

The GOTG2 has the roaring head and jetpack on, so IW can be passive and jetpack-less.

I love Hot Toys' renditions of Rocket - he's easily my favourite Guardians figure.

I don't have one yet. If I was to buy one out of all the versions shown so far, it would be GOTG2 with the multiple heads and a jetpack improves any character. Every figure HT makes, whether they have one in the film or not, should come with a jetpack standard.

Yeah it's a shame we couldn't get an entire movie with with that Thor/GOTG team-up. Instead we'll probably be lucky to get 5 minutes worth.

Weird that this isn't up for pre-order anywhere. Did sideshow not want to take any attention away from Jabba-palooza?

nvm. Still holding my breath on Thanos.

edit: Stupid Canadian conversion.

 

[zechs1125]

Jeez, this is more expensive than Iron Man. Not gonna hold my breath on Thanos.

how is it more expensive than iron man? IW Iron Man is $407!

 

[Centrocal]

I honestly think its a better deal to buy Groot separately and get the Vol 2 Rocket figure. Cause that figure comes with way more stuff. The only exclusive with this set is the Rail Gun.

Also I feel the jet pack looks cool on Rocket and really completes his look, otherwise his costume looks kinda plain without it

the set and groot single figure is still expensive for what it is.

I was thinking the same thing earlier
that's why I just went ahead and preordered the groot single figure and am gonna buy vol. 2 rocket deluxe set.

I just wish they would show off vol. 2 gamora and drax

 

[Razorwing]

all good, mate.

Yeah for sure. So expensive for only 15 points or so of articulation? errr

 

[screamingmetal]

$345!!!


$125 just for Rocket!

 

[Star-Crunch]

Way overpriced. Rocket looks extra cheap IMO
