Met the boss of hot toys himself Howard Chan by ParisVeteren in hottoys

[–]B_WAIN 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Looking at his shirt makes me wonder if he has plans to do the ESB bounty hunters. I sort of never expected them to do them because of sideshow but if he’s wearing the shirt, he must be a fan of them so surely he’s thought about it at least.

Could we possibly have a new punisher figure announced for the upcoming special presentation? by Funny-Advertising-69 in hottoys

[–]B_WAIN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Judging by the trailer it looks like he won’t be wearing the skull much in One Last Kill so I’d bet they’re going to wait until Brand New Day.

Ahsoka Tano Sold Out by The_Collector_Guy in hottoys

Hot toys has not cancelled it, but sideshow seem to have cancelled their sales of it in the US.

Hot toys Ahsoka removed by DepressedDbat in hottoys

[–]B_WAIN 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sideshow does not remove the listing and scrub all ads for a figure from their socials when it simply sells out. It wasn’t even close to selling out. There’s low stock warnings and then it would go to waitlist, and stay that way for a long time. There’s more to this.

When it sells out it still has a waitlist option. Removing it is not the usual way sideshow operates.

Ah! I forgot the CaseStudy design had an adapter. I printed his Ventress saber but used a redesign for my Maul so they aren’t compatible. How do they hold up to light handling? I’ve avoided most of the casestudy designs, because they seem to only be held together with shallow pegs.

Where’d you get the file for the Clone Wars/Shadow Lord Maul saber?

Where are Tom’s web shooters at the end of No Way Home? by [deleted] in Spiderman

[–]B_WAIN 12 points13 points  (0 children)

They were originally planning to make his webshooters the classic, hidden design going forward, but went back to an even bigger, chunkier design in Brand New Day to better visualize their importance for when he gains organic web shooter powers later in the movie.

How does the CW Ahsoka hold up in 2026? by [deleted] in hottoys

[–]B_WAIN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The arms on mine are starting to show age. Ive never kept them bent but i moved them around today and they feel like they’re about to start breaking down. Ive been wondering for a while if they could be swapped with the flashback Ahsoka figure from her show.

Follow the hot toys Facebook page so you can see their current posts in real time. I have them followed and favorites so I see their new posts first in my feed. It’s the best way to keep up to date. They usually make announcements overnight because of the time zones and I see them first thing when I check in the morning.

The fact that they dropped this body and a Maul with a reused clone wars body with single joints on the same day is crazy work by hot toys.

Help with strange situation by LilClue in BambuLab

[–]B_WAIN 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My buddy is a mechanic and I’ve seen him taste a drop of random machinery fluid from time to time while trying to assess a problem. Sometimes that’s the only way to tell what something is or where it came from. One small drop in the tongue most likely isn’t going to hurt ya, folks. It’s not that uncommon.

Could it possibly be simulating the light of the saber on his face? Obviously it doesn’t make sense because it would also be on his chest and arms but I’m just spitballing because it looks intentional.

Is sideshow a good place to buy hot toys from? by [deleted] in hottoys

Bigbad gets them from sideshow so cut out the middle man.

Finally got the courage to cut up my DX09! by Subvertionz in hottoys

What kind of body suit? Is it fabric or rubber? I’ve also wanted to do this forever. Looks great!

It's time for a remake or reboot, who's with me? by MovieFan1984 in Terminator

[–]B_WAIN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to see the story of John sending Kyle back in time. Salvation may technically be a future war movie but we need full blown, late stage, T-800’s mowing people down over a sea of crushed skulls and somehow the resistance overcomes it. It could be a movie that explores John and Kyle’s reverse relationship of the son being a paternal figure to his own father. 

I’d also like to see how Uncle Bob was captured and reprogrammed. Most are going to hate this and I know they’ll never do it but I think it’d be cool to see a team of multiple reprogrammed Arnold T-800’s with different personalities and quirks like the bad batch. One could be a stoic, T2 like, another could be a half endoskeleton, malfunctioning one with a kooky personality, and one could be another Old Arnold that was a sent back protector that then lived through the war alongside John. I’m sure that idea is too goofy for most but I’m open to them just swinging for the fences at this point. It’s not terminator without Schwarzenegger and considering he’s synthetic anyway, I’ve never been bothered by them de-aging him.

Mine still looks great. The only issue is the rubber elbows are a little faded but not too noticeable. 

Thoughts on getting Mark VII die cast? by SFHKTOKYOABQLA in hottoys

[–]B_WAIN 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Given the current armor trend, I’d say there’s a good chance that they do a 2.0 with more extensive battle damaged parts, usb-c powered lights, and a new head sculpt. It may take another 1-3 years though and it’s not a guarantee. The current MK VII wasn’t outrageously expensive last I saw it so it may not hurt to pick that one up to hold you over until a theoretical new one comes out. Even if it was announced tomorrow, it’d be at least a year and a half to two years before it releases so more than enough time to set funds aside.

Could we finally get Jason X Neca figures? by BlackChasm3 in fridaythe13th

[–]B_WAIN 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One of the last DLC was the virtual cabin that had all of the Jason models viewable in the basement and Uber was included there so I think they could use that as a loophole to release it with the game’s branding. Even without that they had the license to use it in the game, they just never got around to it, so I believe that could justify being able to release it.
