Hot Toys – MMS204 - The 1/6th scale ED-209 Collectible

[Hologram AI]

Looking at the window display vid, I thought ED-209 ought to be bigger and taller than that? In that vid it looks like it's just about a head taller than Robo.

That's how tall ED should be.

Right... Thanks mate. Now I have to PO this.

It's only a matter of time before all vendors start asking for an NRD. When it does then it will be pointless to pre-order anything since your're basically being held hostage for a year or more before the item arrives and they have no business taking money upfront without the option to cancel if you are not satisfied with the final product before it ships. This hobby is going to sink itself fast.

Don't blame the vendors, blame the "collectors" who basically treated it as an reservation service, and constantly cancelled figure after figure because they'd changed their minds, and who leave the vendors holding extra stock because some clown can't make up their mind.

Correct i'm not proud to say that i cancelled my orders many times i can imagine how frustrated that must be for the seller.

Yeah thats a fair point. I'm a guilty party.

So which this HT ED-209 will be inspired after: the 1:1 or the studio scale?

I'm not fussed either way, as long as its something that was in the movie and HT aren't lazily copying another company's piece.

There is a small difference between the two, the most visible one being the size of the dome, also seen in the movie I posted above.

Must look at that again. Which would you prefer?

 

[Crimsonbob]

I prefer the full sized wider version myself.

[Crimsonbob]

Mini on the left. Full scale saggy dome on the right.

I still like the more squat full sized 1as it hunkers down n looks meaner. Not that there is anything wrong with the mini either

 

[Yoshi]

I personally prefer the puppet. Which one is the Hot Toys version based off?

 

[Crimsonbob]

I'd say they based it on the mini puppet 1.

 

[a-dev]

OK I think I prefer the one on the right whichever one it is.

 

[Crimsonbob]

Either way the Ht's 1 looks epic.

 

[jkno]

It looks they used the studio scale version. Which is ok. Man I'm really thinking of getting it but where in the world I can display it?

 

[a-dev]

Either way the Ht's 1 looks epic.

Agreed. I have no complaints about it from what I see.

 

[Yoshi]

Are you able to pose the toes? And is the dome rubber?

That's all I wanna know at this point.
