Official Hot Toys Pirates of the Caribbean Jack Sparrow DX06 Spec + Pics

[Centurion]

Funny how it says, "Jack Sparrow - Mom".

You can have mom for only $6....too bad it's just her shrunken head.

HT!!!!!! Why must you hurt my wallet so much?

He looks like he could be pretty cool in the movie!

EDIT: Never mind. Its the shell head guy from Dead Mans chest

 

[KBA]

TA's POPO of Jack is up! No EX telescope for those wondering.

Or boots!

Oh well, snagged the iconic hands and coat

 

[viezure]

What TA POPO are you guys talking about?

 

[Deckard]

Just a guess but Toy Anxiety Part Out Pre Order?

 

[ZsaszSays]

I dont know if anybody has seen the window display at Toy Hunters, so here ya go...

The POTC logo on the rudder looks awesome!

 

[marker2037]

That logo is the part I hate most.

That logo is the part I hate most.

Yup, that thing is coming off as soon as soon as I unbox this fig

Yep, and the prices for the part-outs are really reasonable.

 

[marker2037]

Yup, that thing is coming off as soon as soon as I unbox this fig

Hopefully it's more of a "that thing is not getting put on when I unbox this fig"

 

[MaulFan]

I have a feeling the plate will be molded to the foor, but, for the sake of boxing, the wheel may come separate from the floor.

This and Indy may debut new packaging with their large environment pieces.

That would be nice! But I have a feeling MaulFan is right, unfortunately.

 

[KBA]

Was going to throw a wheel in my cart, but that logo just kills it for me.

Thats what I am thinking as well. I guess you could always paint over it.

 

[ZsaszSays]

So nobody likes the logo? Well...I like the look as far as display purposes, but I can see why you guys dont like it.

 

[MaulFan]

It looks nice and if it were separate, maybe put it somewhere in the display but right in front of the wheel adds a "toy" quality, without the logo you'd just have a really nice Jack at the wheel of the Pearl but with that logo it feels more like a collectible than a miniature Jack Sparrow.

Yup, this is why I avoid using stands on my 1/6 unless absolutely necessary.

 

[MaulFan]

I don't mind with stands because I use them to be certain things don't fall and break and they don't really alter my perception of the figure, but when you get a really nice environment piece for a figure, that can work like a stand, then it seems less like a figure to me and name plates and logos hurt the effect. Like the Emperor's throne from Sideshow, looks great as is, makes the Emperor look beyond just a figure, and no name plates, add one and it starts looking cheesy.

Plain black HT stands don't really bother me (although I still prefer not to use one if the figure is stable), it's the one's that have logos and names emblazoned on them that tend to kill it for me.
