1/6 Hot Toys - MMS 225 - Thor: The Dark World (Thor - Light Asgardian Armor Ver.)

[dw316]

I have the regular armor version ordered, but I'm debating whether I should cancel that now too, haha. With the final payments for Mk42 and Iron Patriot and now the Armory to add, I think those might be my 3 figures/sets for the year. LOL

Was pleased to see this waitlisted a couple of weeks back, it's not going to be a sellout on the same scale as the Midas or BD Mrk VII but good to see it'll still be rare(ish)

 

[Darkavatar]

Can't believe this has sold out already! This is the fastest selling Hot Toys figure I have ever seen that has sold out on pre orders! Neither Midas or BD Iron Man Mark VII sold out as quickly as this on pre-orders right?

 

[dw316]

Midas sold out in a day or 2 I think as did the BD Mark 7. This guy lasted at least a few weeks I think.

Was that on pre-orders? Or when they became available?

BD MK7 sold out in a few hours on PO and Midas was roughly 24 hours on PO.

Not the fastest, Midas was around 24 hours, BD mk 7 was a few, Silly thing mk 3 and 4 I think were pretty fast too. I think theres a few more too

Hmm Ok but are any other figures that sold out as fast or faster than this non Iron man figures?

How long exactly did thor take to sell out?

I think p1 predator ex, Batman sdcc 2011 Begins ex, Gaurdian pred sdcc ex, and maybe more depending on time frames. cant say for 100% certainty

edit: dx 12 and joker dx 11 maybe..?

This took more than a month to sell out.
Considering the record is three hours or so for the BDMKVII, this is way down in the standings.
But for a non-IM figure, this it relatively rare this early in the PO process.

About two months I think, the DX11 Joker EX just sold out a month before it was released. The DX12 took months to pre sell out to. Then they got another batch in. Since this is an EX, I don't think there will be another batch.

Yeah especially since its not coming out till the end of the year.

The MKVIIBD sold out in a few hours as others said. The Midas was 3 days. The BBEX was only hours as well. This was like a month...

Yeah but how close were they to their release dates before they sold out?

 

[dw316]

I think the BBEX was only hours after the pre-order was announced as were the others beforementioned. I think that's what they meant.

Well Midas went on PO the day before they charged, but had been released in asia months before hand.
BD MKVII went on PO many months before delivery. Like in April for an october delivery.

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

They were closer to release than sleeveless Thor but they were also basically color variants...this is more significant IMO

Hmm ok doesn't feel so special after all now.

 

[subzro]

Not to mention Loki sold out 3 times before it was delivered.

So is there a wait list for this now? I cancelled my po and now regret it. Also check out this thread I created showing the new scale of toys and I specifically use thor as a main example. Post your opinions there
