Any updated news on the Hot Toys 1/4 Vader and Stormtrooper?

Just curious if anyone has updated news about these figures?

Just the response I was looking for..

I would have called these dead, but now they are making 1/4 batman and joker. So might still happen but who knows? Might show up force friday, might take several years, might never see them again????

That's a good point about the 1/4 scale Batman and Joker. Unless those are bigger on the Asian market I would think Vader and Trooper would be bigger cash cows than the Batman stuff...

I'm not so sure.. the 1/4 line is dead (Vader and Storm Trooper)... So far they haveproduced three Iron Man figures, Batman TDK, Terminator Endo, and Bobba Fett. I own all of then except The Endo...I missed out and refuse to pay $700 and up for it. Not a big enough fan...

Now with Star Wars merchandise so widely popular I think we will see these soon...(I hope) the protos looked pretty great. I know this is all speculation but I myself enjoy this line and the figures are very nicely made. Here's to more to come from HT's.... If you haven't seen the Iron Man 3 1/4 it's an amazing piece of design/engineering... it far exceeds a mere articulated figure... I've been thoroughly impressed with the 1/4 efforts thus far....

What about a Affleck Batman, and maybe even a Gal Wonder Woman as their first female 1/4... I'm just speculating but those would be great additions. Time will tell but I really hoping to see a Vader and StormT soon...

Maybe HT backed out on Vader because it's the ROTS (Hayden Christensen) version which didn't get positive fan response...

Hot toys isn't all that great about communicating with the fans. It's all speculation, but I'd say its looking less likely
