I'm hoping Crosshair is up for pre-order today? Day one pre-order for me to go along with Echo and Hunter. Now we just need the rest of the batch. These head sculpts are amazing though. I plan to display the entire Bad Batch un-helmeted.

With the latest price increases though, this one has me worried....I get Echo was more expensive as he has a ton of accessories but Hunter was $250 on pre-order. I'm hoping Crosshair is no more than $260-$270 max.

Damn you inflation. Wish our pay went up to match!

 

[DJ_NachoMan]

Never mind, looks like he's up!

Good thing they got that extra 1 dollar to help cover costs. In all seriousness, I thought this was going to drop at $295.

$271 USD

Does that mean you're out?

 

[DJ_NachoMan]

For an extra $1? I'll let it slide this time Hot Toys!

Besides, my local retailer is usually $5-$10 USD cheaper than Sideshow so I'm covered LOL

 

[RandomHero]

$271, yeah I’m in. Now just to decide on ordering from Kit or Sideshow

I'm not planning on getting any Bad Batch figures. Aside from Rex, clones really aren't my thing. But this one looks fantastic. They did a great job translating his unique facial features to a more realistic sculpt. I also like his armor best. Still not getting him, but great job, Hot Toys!

Agreed. I think they nailed his look considering they translated his animated look to real person. Turned out great.

Sideshow picked the worst shot of the headsculpt for their cover shot imo.....

 

[DJ_NachoMan]

I completely agree. That angle is horrible. Literally every other screenshot he looks fantastic.

Those thank you coupons work on this??

 

[Ramatuelle]

I wonder if he still fits in a detolf with that rifle slotted.

 

[BurningRage]

Yes

 

[RandomHero]

Good enough for me. Ordered!

Sure hope Hunter releases soon, I'm excited for these guys.

The worst thing about this is how if you tried to do this IRL, that helmet would fall the instant you let go. The rangefinder would snap off, and you would not be finding it again, either.

In other news, I went through my code wallet till I found one that worked. -$20.00 Now I am all but forced to buy Hunter.
