Hulkbuster is supposed to be 5100 HKD which translates to about 625 USD but with markup I'm calling 749.99 or 799.99 on Sideshow!

GET READY FOLKS!!

That Hulkbuster... damn!
At some point, I'm probably going to make another Kaine out of the new Spidey or the 2099 body, as much as I like the last one.

He looks pretty good on the shelf with the rest of the Spider-Verse, but he just doesn't have the range of motion that he deserves.
I personally find the new Spidey body a bit too small for Kaine, since he's a bit of a bigger guy. From what I've seen of the Bucky Cap body, that has pretty good articulation plus the bulk.
 
Speaking of Star Wars, you've been in the Rebels thread Zulithe and didn't mention the new figures over here. I'm liking the McQuarrie-esque Vader helmet. I linked instead of embedding in case people haven't seen the Rebels finale.

Why did I click prior to reading warning???

I still haven't seen Sabine in the wild.

Animarket has Hulkbuster pre-orders for 730 bucks. They're in Australia though so about 100 bucks to ship it here which is crazy.

Should be 775 on SSC.

I've been collecting Hot Toys for 7 years now and this is the first time something has released early, let alone 6 months from it's projected release date.

Just released at secret base.

Best Wolverine sculpt and I think the best one they've done ever.

Man what I would do for a Fassbender Magneto Double pack. Civilian gear and his DoFP costume and a Xavier double pack (young and old) shave Marvel will never let them come out :(

Where do I get news for Play Arts Kai? I am thinking of collecting those and waiting for reissues like Vanquish Sam Gideon, Kratos, or MGS1 Snake.
 
Well I can flex pay at SSC for $92 a month. Not bad. Went ahead and placed an order since BBTS wants $100 NRD when SSC is only $82.
 
And this is why I collect Marvel Legends instead of Hot Toys. I will spend less on all the Marvel Legends released in 2015 (and there's a lot of them) than the cost of one Hot Toys Hulkbuster. Yikes!

Best thing to do is maybe go onto CDJapan and make an account and subscribe to certain brands (Play Arts is one, or your favourite series or whatever it is) and you'll get an email about every new item that goes up for order. But good luck waiting for reissues of Snake and Fox from MGS1, highly unlikely.

Are there any people or companies that make 1/6 scale accessories or even outfits? I want to make a base for my Elder Predator. I have most of the general diorama stuff but need some bones and human or alien remains. My other project I'm not sure is possible. I would like to get a alternate outfit for the 1/6 Bank Robber Joker.
I really like the Hulkbuster but that is too expensive for me. I wouldn't be able to buy anything else the rest of the year. Maybe they will have a contest and I will get lucky.

I preordered the hulk buster.







What have I done?


Welcome to the hardcore Hot Toys collectors club brother. You have plenty of time to save up, I'm just going send 75 bucks a month to my seller until its paid off and not have to worry about it.

I know I'm LTTP with this one but I just got him today and he's a pretty damn good figure:

I was surprised by how much I ended up liking him- really solid figure, and he's one of the few to avoid that "gummy joint" problem Hasbro's been having with legs and arms lately. He, Star-Lord, Nova and Groot were fantastic, shame that Gamora and Rocket weren't as good, and that the series' Iron Man even exists.
