    If HT's are smart they'll do it, it's the only to stop the bootleg version. I bummed I miss out on the original release.

        Can't have Muad'Dib without Feyd-Rautha. They'd pose great together.

          BK, I might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure they're selling the bootlegs as if they're the real deal and commanding those crazy aftermarket prices the legit ones are getting. People aren't realizing what they're getting until they have them in hand, or so I've read.

              ohhh ..., wow.
              I remember reading about the bootleg ..., I had no idea that is was going this way.

                No, I don't have a link because it's really hard to tell them apart. I did see one on eBay once where the guy said he got taken, so he was selling as "the Bootleg". I think it went for around $150.00

                  I'd love it if they lower their prices for figures that aren't that hard to make.
                  I can understand the tooling for Iron Man is expensive, but they charge the same price for a simple "guy in a suit"...

                    Prices have gone up for these, to some degree...., But Most are 150to200 outta the gate, some can be had for cheaper. They are "sorta" Spendy to me ..., why I say sorta, is because I save Money for them , basically like 25 bucks a week ..., and before I know it, I get the 1 I want.

                      I love the details in these modern figures, but the plastics they use are often rubbish. I only have one Hot Toys figure - the Martian Ambassador from Mars Attacks - and the rubber at his elbows has split from just standing on a shelf for two years. I read about melting, dissolving and puddles of oil.

                      I'd love an Adam West Batman series, but I'm not willing to spent megabucks for crappy plastic.

                      At least vintage has already stood the test of time.

                          A Gene Wilder Willy Wonka would be beyond awesome.

                            I think Thunderbirds replica puppets would sell.

                            And you'd have to collect the set, wouldn't you?
