Hot Toys – MMS204 - The 1/6th scale ED-209 Collectible

[Darth Waller]

It's coming up on my iPhone, so I went ahead and ordered one to be safe.

What do these Smart phones know that our laptops don't?

 

[DGTWoodward]

I have just live chatted with Christina, it is in stock, but as was suspected only showing on the mobile site for now. Their tech team is aware of the fault and is in the process of correcting it.

She did say that any other orders for this could still be made via live chat, or by phoning.

So, all is well in the land of the ED-209.

Skynet.

 

[DGTWoodward]

Skynet.

Throw down your orders or there will be.......trouble!!

 

[Khev]

"In stock or not, you're coming with me."

 

[DGTWoodward]

"Thank you for your ordering co-operation!"

 

[CollectorGuy]

"Thank you for your ordering co-operation!"

That kinda stunk

 

[DGTWoodward]

That kinda stunk

yeah it did a bit...sorry!

 

[Khev]

I wonder when we're going to see that RoboCain. It looks fully completed as of what, 2011? It's a good thing that they waited until they started doing diecast metal though. Now its legs should be able to support the upper body assuming they go that route.

 

[Sidious-66]

They are waiting for a new batch of nuke to be made before they can finish Cain.

 

[CAIN MKII]

The Cain you see on the picture isn't a figure but a photo of the FX puppet used for the movie. We haven't seen a bit of HT Cain yet.

Oh snap.

 

[Yoshi]

I can only imagine Cain is gonna be an awesome figure, my wallet is gonna hate it though xD

 

[a-dev]

Yeah, god knows what price it'll be by the time HT releases it.

 

[Bo Shrek]

This is how I feel about Batman Returns. The longer we wait, the more Hot Toys gets paid!!

It is a legitimate reason for people being pissed off at the Iron Man glut and the delays on everything else that that is causing. They're actually going to make us pay for their delays...unless we decide '**** it, I'm not buying now'. We're not gonna do that though.

If it is as good as we all hope it to be when it's finally released, I think most of us will cave and dish out the £££ either way. That's if they're die hard Robocop/Cain fans. I know I probably will.

And herein lies the problem...

We make a stand and don't pay.
Hot Toys get the message.
Sadly, it's the wrong one, so they don't pursue the licences we all want anymore because of a 'supposed' lack of demand.
We are stuck for another 30 odd years waiting for the figures we want.

We don't win if we pay, and we lose if we don't pay. They really do have us like this...

Sanity now restored at SSC...

ED-209 is now back amongst the land of the PC ordering living!
