So here are some shots of Hot Toys MMS113 (Movie Masterpiece Series) 1/6th scale BLADE Limited Edition Collectible Figurine from the "Blade II (2002)" movie in action poses. But first let's see what he has underneath his black overcoat.
Besides the black long sleeve sweater, Blade also has the original Hot Toys 1/6 True Type body (NOT the narrow shoulder version). His black pants has both a unique silver "buckle" as well as the standard black belt. Note: The silver buckle does not work, it functions only as a fashion statement and serves to make the outfit (costume) look movie accurate.
UPDATE April 3: Blade actually comes with a slightly tweaked Truetype - he's got bigger and more defined biceps and triceps, and bigger forearms with sculpted detail (same arms as the Hot Toys Wesker figure). The shoulders, while not as small as the narrow shoulder version, are less "ball"-like and have a similar shape and slope as the narrow version. Also, he has the stronger and newly designed knee joints (makes him less prone to breakage). This was contributed by a fellow blogger Philip. Thanks for the input :)
Here's Wesley Snipes as Blade wearing the short padded bomber jacket under his vest. The bomber jacket is really tight and almost doesn't fit but the vest covers that up. The vest also has the same non-working undetachable silver buckles.
The vest has very nice details, as can be expected of Hot Toys
The five silver stakes (sterling silver spikes) go into a drop-down stake-holder located on Blade's left thigh

Here's Hot Toys Blade "Daywalker" with his two Handguns (Heckler & Koch USP Matchs modified with laser sights and rail-like attachment) and wearing the double shoulder holster
Blade's 1/6 vest has a slot at the back for attaching the sword sheath. The vest itself is attached with snap fasteners and not by velcro as it looks (most assault vests are attached via velcro fasteners)
Another close-up of the vest's nice details which can be seen when Blade wears the padded bomber jacket but will be mostly hidden when he wears the long black overcoat.
Isn't this guy (Wesley Snipes) supposed to be doing some time in jail? Well at least he has a 1/6th to show to the other inmates.
ReplyDeleteDid you know hot toys announced a Perseus Clash of Titans action figure. I'm looking forward to check some more pics on that one, but I'm not sure I'll get it.
Alex - Blade actually comes with a slightly tweaked Truetype - it's got biggerand more defined biceps/triceps, and bigger forearms with sculpted detail (same arms as Wesker figure).

All in all, a great figure and glad you got him!
ReplyDeleteDid Hot Toys invent a shrinking machine?!? The stitching on the clothes is amazing! Look at the cuffs on his jacket! The level of detail is amazing!
ReplyDeletehey Jon, I've seen the Perseus teaser pictures but am waiting excitedly for the preview pictures to show up.
