Present Toys - 1/6 PT-55 Blade Warrior (aka Blade from Blade II)

[vspectra]

Think I would like to get this to make my perfect version , is there any place to get this under $200 ?

I think the cheapest retail price for pre-orders was around $210-220, so unlikely to see it below $200 now.

Worst thing are the pants for me. Going to ask around the Indy customs community for tricks on how to form natural looking creases.

Yeah the top 75% of it looks pretty tight fitted here compared to the prototype. They're not supposed to be leather anyway, so I feel like it should be easier to find some 1/6 baggier fabric pants to better match the film, or eventually mix and match with the SooSoo version when that comes out. From bigbreda's video it doesn't look like we'll be able to do these kicks.

The narrow shoulders is actually really distracting once pointed out. Makes his proportions look really head/leg heavy. Wider and broader shoulders would definitely help.

Blade with tight leather pants just looks….well…weird.

 

[BACON!]

I saw all the movies recently. I want to say his pants were a black ripstop kind of fabric

 

[CollectorGuy]

Yeah. Really wish they had not done the pants in leather. It's not accurate and has no benefits to the figure. Should have been some kind of vinyl tpu like material. The leather just looks stiff on the pants.

Reason why I decided and put a PO for the SST version as well. Oh, dang it, the fanged sculpt also played a big part in that decision

The Presi Blade looks great, but it seems juts to be a recast from the old third party Blade...

 

[satanatos]

Regardless, its a beast of a figure everything factored in.

I see differences, actually it just looks like the HT's version. PT's is more detailed and colour closer, leather better than pleather also.

Mine finally arrived today. It's a great looking figure and the leather trench coat is awesome! The pants are also good, although as discussed, not movie accurate. My only gripe is the lack of ankle articulation, which could have been done just like Toys era did with their Homelander. Not extreme, but enough to allow for better posing.

Just opened mine and was met with this straight out of the box, anyone know if I can just snip it off or is this a bigger issue?

Opened mine today and have this sticking out, can I just snip this off or is this a bigger problem?

Big problem!
I’m pretty sure if you just snip that off, the entire figure will fall apart.
That’s a structural thread!


See if you can pull it through to the inner side of the vest- then tie it off or cut it.

I personally would try to seek a replacement.

Just throw it in the trash. Total lost cause. /s

Seriously tho, take a lighter and burn it away. Pinch it so it melts on itself. It'll be fine. I've seen $300 Jordan's have this happen. It's a non - issue.

 

[vspectra]

Pants look to have some leeway here and aren't as tight, but no ankle pivots really hurt.

 

[satanatos]

Yeah, the lack of ankle articulation is really bugging me

 

[CollectorGuy]

Kinda wish they had gone with a beefier body, he looks kinda scrawny there. It basically has the same problems the HT version had, he looks really skinny without the jacket. They did some nice improvements though like using real leather material and magnetic snaps for the guns holsters and second jacket.

Yeah, makes his head looks massive. His body is actually even smaller than the Hot Toys one

Someone on facebook stripped off the clothes and showed the generic body PT used. With the tailoring fitted to it, it's gonna be hard swapping to a bigger body.

 

[Omnishredder]

Just a quick test out of the box, putting some thick card folded inside of the coat can really improve the silhouette of this. Still more to futz and make improvements but food for thought indeed
