They can't be that many, most places are either waitlisted or sold out no?

I'm personally OK with this one. I mean, this thing is huge, I really don't need it to be any bigger, lol.

thats what she said

So... what are people using to display this? I was hoping I might find a mass-produced coffee table that would do that job, but no such luck.

exactly the same as the 1st release minus the cocoon.

I feel bad for anyone who actually thought that they were going to improve this.

If only I could convert that sympathy into motivation and pass it onto Hot Toys to shake them out of their ‘bare minimum effort’ mentality.

They managed to save 10 kgs on the new packaging. It doesn’t feel as premium as the 1st release in terms of presentation but at least it will be much more manageable to stock and move.

Too bad nobody cares about this release now in 2024 compared to back in 13’.

I'm sure anyone who purchased it, like me, cares. I know it might not be perfect but I can't wait to get this. I started collecting long after the original release so this was my chance to get it for retail. I do wish the cocoon shield was included though.

Don't stress too much about the cocoon shield, it's a cheap flimsy piece of plastic that 99% of owners leave in the box.

And it doesn’t even keep it dust free. It somehow gets underneath the shield.

Gotcha, I didn't know that. I thought it was like a sturdy material for some reason.

It did look like that in the original specs and prototype pics. Once you take the film off of it, it does look nicer with the matte finish, but it’s flimsier than a cake mold man. Super cheap. Like a blown up 1989 toy biz Batmobile cocoon if you had it.

Yeah I remember how the forum was on fire back to 2013.
A 1/6 1989 Batmobile! It was insane!
It was really a wonderful time to dive into this hobby.
So many good memories.
