I wouldn’t necessarily say Koska Reeves but only because of the horrible body that the figure has. The headsculpt is amazing, though.
I actually assumed if you agreed to take a Disney/Marvel gig you basically had to agree to likeness rights for merch. Garfield must have got a special deal to get him to agree to come back.Any idea why Garfield didn't allow it? Dude you're in a spiderman movie
That's was my original thinking as well. But I'm tired of settling on mediocrity (no matter whose fault it is) and just being "grateful" something was released. These things are getting more and more expensive to just being happy with whatever they throw at you. At least, that's my perspective. That's not to say I'm not genuinely happy with some releases that others may feel are phoned in. But, if in the back of my mind, I buy a figure that I KNOW I'm not happy and excited for, it's 100% of the time going to eventually get sold.
I'm aware. I actually thought the sculpt wouldn't been included at all but I think I was confusing that with the SHFiguarts of him.
I think some people tend to forget how many figures Hot Toys actually releases. There are some that aren’t as good but there are quite a few they do really well. People just like to focus on the ones that aren’t as good.
Both Tobey and Garfield had special deals if I remember correctly. Tobey got an exuberant amount b/c he knew they wanted, or rather NEEDED, him in the movie and waited them out until they agreed to his price/fee/terms.
Would've been a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation. If no headsculpt was included, there would be complaints that the other's got an unmasked headsculpt but ASM figure didn't. HT did the best they could with the rules they were under (for the headsculpt) but unfortunately, it still sucks.I'm aware. I actually thought the sculpt wouldn't been included at all but I think I was confusing that with the SHFiguarts of him.
Honestly I'd think it would have been better to just not include one if they were gonna do that.
Agreed!
could've still been a pretty great figure had they updated what they actually could work with outside of the headsculpt.
Would have just wanted this in 1/6:
I'm not really in the Star Wars fandom so I've not seen most of them, so perhaps my statement was more of a case of what I've seen - ie. This, atrocious Supergirl sculpt, the hideous WB100 metallic blue Batman, the Flash Batfleck Batman's hideous design, ATSV cheap looking Spider-man 2099, ATSV Miles poor proportions, Reuse of Rocket Raccoon etc.How so? Cad Bane, Fennec Shand, Koska Reeves, DX Mando Luke, DX Bespin Luke, DX Ahsoka, '84 WW, TVA Loki, President Loki, Cyborg are recent production releases that have all been pretty much well received by most collectors. Not sure how that constitutes as a "losing streak"
Understood. But also some clarity - given your statement seemed to be in reference to the final product release of this figure, my understanding was that you were saying recent final products were the losing streak, which is why I gave examples of other figures that have come out looking fantastic.
Yeah we've seen other figures like Endgame CM which had that kind of metallic red sheen, so not sure why they couldn't do it here.Would have just wanted this in 1/6:
How hard would it have been for them to at least ATTEMPT to match that sheen that Garfield has on his suit.
It's what makes his suit different from Tobey and Holland. Include these unique qualities that makes each suit stand out from the rest. Sucks because this is probably the last Hot Toys Garfield figure we'll get and they just half ass the entire thing.
So much for all those cancelled pre-orders.That NutPiz sculpt is out of stock now
Far From Him is wild lmao
