Fair enough, but if I'm right I'm quoting your above post months from now and saying "I told you so". It'll be pointless and won't matter to anybody here, but I'm doing anyway.

Fair enough :lol I HOPE I am wrong though. I just get the feeling he won't be hanging around along from the love he's actually getting in this section of movie haters.
 
Well, damn. I have no more room in my budget for toys this year, so no all-purpose old Bruce Willis for me. Too bad this wasn't a regular release that would be coming out next year. Hoping that the door is open for future Bruce's, possibly from the movie versions I'm interested in.
 
It's probably like Sin City, only with the licence. Though I know he gave permission as a favor to Rodriguez.

It was probably a requirement for this role if I had to guess. How could you not be in a movie, which is really just a big toy commercial, and not have your likeness rights attached to it when the movie is based on a Hasbro toy line? :lol

I'm a little surprised WWE didn't throw a major fit or something over the Rock's likeness. I can only assume Vince has his claws into those guys like George Lucas.
 
I want this figure so bad :monkey5, it almost gives me wood; when can we order it from Sideshow? :drool

To the guys that don’t like the head sculpt because Bruce is bald, he’s been bald for years and out of the last dozen or so movies he’s been in, he’s been bald. 13 Monkeys, Unbreakable, Tears of the Sun, Surrogates, his cameo on Expendables, when he was in Expendables 2, Red, Red 2, and his last two Die Hard sequels; probably even a few more. So I personally don’t mind the bald head sculpt.

Second for me, last year I decided not to buy any of the three SDCC (I think it was SDCC) exclusives. Then over the last year I used a discount code to buy Angelica, I got Rescue Captain America off EBay for a cheaper price than Sideshow, but because I wanted a Commissioner Gordon instead of a LT. Gordon in an S.W.A.T. outfit I passed on him even though I wanted the character. Now like the rest I want him too but I can’t because out of the three his price has sky rocketed and I can’t afford him, and there has been no Commissioner Gordon made. What I’m afraid of most is that because that Batman trilogy has ended and it seems like Hot Toys is moving on to the Keaton line of Batman films and there will never be a Gary Oldman Commissioner Gordon made.

So even though I would also like for the Bruce head to have hair, I’m not going to hold off on getting Joe Colton, because I think it might be just like the Gordon and I’m not going to miss out like I did last year by taking a chance he’ll be out again.
 
I will definatly buy a second head to have an all purpose Bruce Willis like I already have one of Arnold. He want look as young as (I'm using the DX10 T-2 Terminator head) Arnold, but it will do. Now if Hot Toys will redo a Stallion from his earlier films I can do the same. It's too bad I can't get a descent Clint Eastwood; he's be next.

You guys don't think adding hair to this will make him look younger? I'm leaning in this direction at this point. The scale is so small that you probably won't notice and the wrinkles and whatnot on the face so he won't look old. Just very detailed.

Ok, so anyone knows which will be the first Toy Fair that this figures will appear?

I need a Joe Colton SO BADLY!!!! I can´t wait, no matter if I have to pay 300 bucks on ebay, but I need this for yesterday!!!

So, when we can expect this figure being sale?

During Comic-Con, these figures are usually available for Pre-Order on Sideshow right?

Over here in Hong Kong, every year the exclusives are available on site, and our Anime Con starts on the 25th or 26th i think. So if you want it IMMEDIATELY, i suggest buying from a HK Scalper, and you will have it on hand latest, 2nd week of August.

I'm a Hot Toys VIP member, so we got priority for the Exclusives, and need to pay in full by the end of this week.

But normally... especially for non-VIP members, its an absolute nightmare getting exclusives. Although we get it right away, i'd rather comfortably sit at home, order, and wait an extra month. Cause scalpers in HK or merciless wolves... and alot of times, we need to at least 50-100 bucks more just because we didn't bother queing up 3 days outside the convention for these things.
 
I wouldn't be too worried for those of you who want the head only... At the rate HT sculpts are being recast and sold painted on ebay lately - I think this will be easy to come by in coming months. Between this and MOS - they are stepping up their game in likenesses.

That Storm Shaddow head looked good too.

Will you get one for you, on your Exclusive account?

Any chance you could get one for me? I prefer to purchase the figure for a fellow member here instead of some scalper...

Let me know!
