Preorder button on that Yoda today?

Lordy indeed. I'd love to have something like that in my house but I don't have that much space.
It's just a bad photoshop now that I'm looking at it on my laptop but still cool to see the whole gang together.
Here's a better one with just about the entire gang.
This will be my first (and hopefully only) Hot Toys.Lordy

Famous words.
Don't let the nerds push you into buying more.
Every single laugh.gif you can find on the Internet. 6 years ago I bought Hot Toys Iron Man Mark 1, 2 and 3 and that was supposed to be it...... and now I'm at 83 figures or something I think.
It's already too late.

i'm curious how much does that come out too.
if each figure is approx 350 ( ranges 260-380)
that's roughly + or - 29K
Nooo!
I think they were in the $200 range before but slowly crept up in price. Still, that's a lot of plastic.

If I can do it, you can do it. Just don't let go!

Oh man, I'm so in.
Heh, all 21. By the time the game is done there will be more heroes than there are atoms in the galaxy.

Sweet, figured (no pun intended) we would be. Made by NECA I assume? I know they made the Heroes of The Storm figures.

I'd be more interested in statues if they make anymore to follow up Tracer. I'd definitely be in for a Mei statue. Or any of a half-dozen other characters.

I added 
rig at the end of the Twitter image url posted to get a much bigger pic. They look like giant statues meant to look like figures in packaging. Are there going to be actual figures? I know a friend of mine would absolutely LOVE that.

I imagine we'll get shrunken down versions. Seems weird to design and add all those joints just for the sake of putting them on display like that.

They are just promotional and no figures have been announced (as far as I know), but one can hope.

They'll make them, this is just a tease but Blizzard knows that thirst for these figures is real.

I hope its NECA that does Overtwatch. Has there been any news of more Heroes of the Storm figures? As Cptkrush states, Lich King and Tyrael are fantastic figures.
They were fun to shoot and add effects to.
I almost feel I have to buy all/most video game figures just because I wanted them so badly as a kid. Now I have Mario, Link, Samus and a bunch of other video game toys I never would have dreamed of having.

Fuck yes exactly what I was waiting for
Probably in the low 20s. They've definitely gotten expensive most figures were in the 200s.

i think Diecast has diecast and power pose is just plastic. dunno if accuracy is also involved. but yea, major price difference.

All I know is that Steve Austin better come with a set of middle-finger hands.

Power pose figures are not fully articulated. They're glorified statues.
This is the Power Pose Mark 46. Nothing is articulated besides the shoulder and head. They're cheaper than the usual MMS figures though. This runs for $150.
Diecast MMS is their regular fully articulated figure line but with diecast (metal) parts integrated into their armor/joints.
It adds a nice amount of weight to the figure but that's about it. Gives Hot Toys a reason to jack the price up on those figures. Pretty much no one collects Power Pose. They're not popular and Hot Toys hasn't done a lot of them. They've only done 3 so far.
