Re: Hot Toys Blade II

Man why couldn't they just cut off the heads and stick them on statues, heh.

This looks incredible.

Think of them as posable statues, why limit yourself to one look
I agree though, think how much more detail Hot Toys could put into a 1/4 scale.

Re: Hot Toys Blade II

I was thinking about getting out of the 12" figure line, but this is just impassable, what a likeness of Wesley Snipes!

This is a must for me.

Re: Hot Toys Blade II

Does the tattoo cover his back? And as it's Blade 2, do you think they will do a Luke Goss character! That would be cool.

Re: Hot Toys Blade II

That looks amazing!!!

If I still bought collectables I'd snap this one up.

After seeing 40 Year Old Virgin though I boxed up all my stuff (99% Matrix stuff) and put them in the attic.

Still keep the massive APU and Sentinel on display though.

My Hot Toys Blade 2 figure arrived today, only took 3 days to ship from China.

It was shipped at 4pm on Saturday and was delivered at 8:30am on Monday (today).

I would keep Bats and get Blade as well if you can, however if it is one or the other then it's a close call.

Very well actually, just tried it and Blade is very stable on his feet, I just like the reassurance a stand gives.

Had a lots off duds but this one i liked

Does anyone have any tips on changing figures body parts, it took me ages to 'pop in' new hands, i keep thinking something is going to break.
I think i'll just keep the default out off the box setups

Its been a while but a little heat helps, I'd use warm (not really hot) water if possible for the likes of hands or a wee blow first with a hair dryer normally makes them come on and off easier, but just be carefull not to heat it too much

It took for ages to put the new hand on, also thought something was going to break.
