HOT TOYS DC vs. Marvel

[Yavanna]

Hello, can somebody tell me why there are so much DC (Batman-)villains and from Hot Toys and just Batman and Superman released as heros whereas there are so many Marvel heros and side-characters like Coulson and Odin, but just 3 or 4 villain figures?
Would you like it otherwise?
Because I'm collecting Hot Toys Marvel and DC characters I'm interested in this.

All due to them being movie-based. For example, take a look at the Batman series vs the Avengers:

Batman vs Scarecrow/Joker/Two-Face/Catwoman/Bane
compared to
Ironman/Thor/Cap/Hawkeye/Widow/Hulk/Fury vs Loki

There haven't been any really good, high profile DC movies apart from those franchises we've seen figures from already. Green Lantern was a box office disappointment, and folks aren't clamoring for a Jonah Hex. We did get some Watchmen stuff. . .when/if WB gets off its rear and releases some really serious and good non-Bats/Superman films, then I'm sure we'll get figures from them.

I'd love a nice high end version of the Flash from the 90s TV show..

 

[karamazov80]

As would I. . .as would I. Linda Carter Wonder Woman, as well.

Linda Carter Wonder Woman, as well.

Oh **** yeah!!!

How sloppy of me to forget the wonderful Lynda Carter.

I would actually love a Jonah Hex figure. The movie was a huge disappointment, but my love for the character outweighs that disappointment.

Agreed, they neglect villians far too much.

All due to them being movie-based. For example, take a look at the Batman series vs the Avengers:

Batman vs Scarecrow/Joker/Two-Face/Catwoman/Bane
compared to
Ironman/Thor/Cap/Hawkeye/Widow/Hulk/Fury vs Loki

You left out the bulk of both DC & Marvel movies & characters.

DC vs Lex Luthor, Zod, Nuclear Man, Penguin, Catwoman, Two Face, Riddler, Mr Freeze, Poison Ivy, Bane, Sinestro & Hector Hammond

Marvel vs Deacon Frost, Magneto, Mystique, Green Goblin, Dr Doom, William Stryker, Deathstrike, Bullseye, Kingpin, Doc Ock, Silver Surfer, Nomak, Dracula, Venom, Sandman, Sebastian Shaw, Magneto (FC), Azazel, Lizard

the real question is why has marvel not gotten a DX yet

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Steven said it best...

If anyone deserves a dx treatmeant by hot toys own definition of what a dx is it should be wolverine.ht said the dx line is for iconic characters,as soon as you see them you know exactly who they are.not many have captured that as well as jackman,I can't picture anyone else playing that role.

 

[karamazov80]

It would just ruin his likeness more than usual.

I wholeheartedly second this

Which marvel character would you like as a DX?

 

[Mix Master]

Which marvel character would you like as a DX?

magneto from First Class, Wolvie. something

 

[BatBrain]

Hulk DX which has PERS, Banner figure included, multiple sculpts, a big base of broken concrete and metal, multiple hands, and of course shawarma.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Magneto First Class is a good pick.

Blue/yellow suit with Grey/Silver helmet
Red and purple uit ith red and purple helmet.
Beach base
Various missiles and artillery to be posed on acrylic rods to be suspended in mid air

 

[FullMetalHippie]

I'm surprised they didn't make the IM3 Tony Stark set a DX. It's packed with accessories and a diorama base. Just make the head sculpt with PERS and you have yourself a kick butt DX.

I'd be using the Fass head sculpt for a Green Lantern custom.
