Someone just asked him the other day actually. From what I remember he basically said no since doing the figure itself is a lot harder than they anticipated to think about accessories.

Thinking of pulling the trigger on it. Did Joost say exactly the extent of the articulation of the wings ?

See his response on 7/17 (post #1296). They'll pivot at the back of the figure and halfway out (just in-board of the fan motors, I believe). The fan motors will also tilt on their horizontal axes.
That is an amazing piece of art right there!

Wow!
This is an amazing undertaking, so impressive!!

Really do not like that 10%... and so sorry to hear about it. Figured you, Joost, and your work would be isolated from a lot of that.
I see it in the customs sections a lot too... and it truly aggravates me.
Just to be clear, my question to Joost was about an additional item at extra cost. I have no intent to ask for something like that for free. I can't believe someone else presented it that way -- yeah, just throw it in, Joost. What an ass.
I thought maybe the gun itself might not be able to be powered without somehow hooking into the Vulture's electronics, so as an extra accessory for an extra fee tagged on, like a DX version.
But now reading your post, sounds like Joost is likely had enough challenges from this project which I totally understand... so I rescind my question about the gun.
I do hope someone else here at least renders and casts the gun at some point though.
The FOMO was getting too real on this one so I AM NOW IN! 
Fingers crossed that the final fuzzy collar comes out more like this
and less like this

Yeah, sometimes it amazes me how entitled (and clueless) some people are about things. Joost is taking on these projects due to his love of the properties & the hobby itself, and he's likely barely breaking even on them.

Congrats & welcome to the club!

Yeah especially when you consider like what he says; they're taking on the hardest projects that Hot Toys doesn't even want to deal with. I mean, how do you consider shipping something like the Falcon Cockpit for instance? lol it's so much to think about.
It will take me some time to get tat Dee Snider out of my minds eye.

I met him about ... 4 or 5 years ago? Really nice guy. And in serious shape for any age.
Yeah, having to look at that is borderline abusive. Someone should PM a moderator and tell him we're not gonna take it....anymore.
Nice.
I have heard that he's a really nice man and very smart. A shame he had to go and make himself look like that for eternity.

LOL...he looks fine in daily life. Super fit, still a rocker. His lady's a sweetheart too. Neither of them take themselves remotely seriously, very down-to-earth. I was at a birthday dinner with them.

lol, no one can say for sure ... they can announce it for pre-order tomorrow, with Spider-Man 3 or never.
