Hot Toys - MMS149 - Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street: Sweeney Todd

[Monger]

Forgive me for saying such, but the smiling Bruce Lee in a suit seems like a perfect match for Todd's chair...

It's for those who prefer their pies to have a bit of a kick I suppose.

 

[viezure]

Lol, it would look hilarious, with bruce so happy and unaware.

poor brucy

 

[duress]

how about edward scissorhands doing the haircut on sweeney todd?

 

[captainjamesbrooke]

Are we still looking at Q3 on this? I really wanna grab one, but with the Capt Jack coming around the same time I'm not sure I can afford it!!

 

[Raymond F.]

Oh yah I forgot this existed!

 

[captainjamesbrooke]

It's a wonderful looking figure. But what with this and Jack I'll be very very poor and short on display space! That ships wheel AND that chair! Man need more space.

 

[Monger]

Yeah the price and timing for this figure pretty much made me forget about it. It's a nice piece, but not worth the money and there are too many other things coming out right now. I don't know why Hot Toys is trying to flood the market with their products. It's making it hard to get the figures I want.

 

[captainjamesbrooke]

Yeah I agree. It'd be much better staggered. Problem is if you don't pick them up on preorder or close to realise then you run the risk of them going up in price to a point you are not happy to buy them. Happened to me with Wolverine!

 

[RyanSD]

They've definitely stacked the last few months of the year with product - a little too much if you ask me. Indy, Jack Sparrow, Supes, Mark II, the Tron figures, probably forgetting some. I have a feeling some will either get pushed back, or they'll be releasing 2 to 3 figures a month.

 

[CriterionCollector]

Don't forget Spiderman 3

 

[Monger]

Indeed. I'm really starting to hate Hot Toys because of this, but I guess I can't really blame them.

I think we can expect Jack around July-August, whereas Sweeney will be September-October.

Anybody think HT will re-release Edward Scissorhands with Depp's likeness?

 

[Calcifer]

Anybody think HT will re-release Edward Scissorhands with Depp's likeness?

That would be great, but i'd love to know asap if this is a sure thing as i'm very close to hunting the figure down again to be used with Zach's upcoming sculpt.

 

[Maglor]

I know. I'm having the same dilemma.

 

[xjamiex]

Anybody think HT will re-release Edward Scissorhands with Depp's likeness?

Absolutely.. Hot Toys stated that they will be doing many more figures based on Johnny Depp's characters and this was after Jack Sparrow- so far we only have Sweeney Todd. There has to be others planned for the future. My guesses:

Edward Scissorhands
John Dillinger
Mad Hatter
Ichabod Crane

Hot toys is always after a great design and visually appealing releases, so from that list, I believe it would be in this order:

Mad Hatter
Sccisorhands (if they rerelease it)
John Dillinger
Ichabod Crane

But I would be interested in Ichabod Crane from that list and maybe Dillinger.
