Hot Toys – MMS255 – Guardians of the Galaxy: 1/6th scale Star-Lord Collectible Figure

[Rambler]

Love the look of this figure. Too bad my wallet can't afford the whole team otherwise I would be all over this.

I think it will be bought by me. But I have a big concern about the costume. Not the tailor but the material. Hot Toys leather costumes has issues. They start peeling after some time of display. Hellboy figure is a good example of this issue.

It's practically a given, to any figure of any brand using synthetic leather. Happens to 1:1 pleather bags, shoes, and jackets as well. Even with the right care, it will deteriorate in time.

It's the regular Mark vii all over again. Beautiful figure, horrible headsculpt

Not sure of the synthetic leather they use, but I have a few pleather jackets and one only gave out on me after 6 year of almost everyday wear

I know it's subjective but 'horrible' is a bit strong. It's not perfect but I love it

The only complaint I have about the figure is I think the neck is too wide. Its using a muscle neck attached to the body and it just doesn't fit. I think it would look better if you switch the body and use a separate neck joint to look more natural.

Well, if HT can't give us a more reliable glue for their figures while now charging $200+ a pop, chances are they're giving us the cheapest pleathers they could get

Kind of looks like Billy Zane lol

Happy with it. Wonder if we get a toy fair exclusive with different outfit!

they are cutting to many corners lately, they need to increase quality if they insist on increasing prices

Fantastic photos! So pumped for this one.

The resemblance to Chris Pratt isn't there. If you took that sculpt away from that figure and stuck it on another body I don't think it would be recognizable as being Chris Pratt. Hot Toys came up short on this one.

I'm not convinced the final product is spot on but heres two pics for comparison, it looks ok to me, and in some other photos the hair looks darker like 1-2 pages back

The bridge of his nose seems thicker on the production figure which is what I think is throwing it off for me.
