These pictures taken of the Hot Toys 10th Anniversary Exhibition in Tokyo (a big THANK YOU to the guys who were there and took pictures and shared them) have been floating around on the internet and it has thrown up quite a few surprises and lots of expectations for 2011 :)
First - the usual suspects: Iron Man Mark V and Mark VI plus a host of other upcoming releases we have already seen in pre-released pictures such as Ghost Rider, SGT Barnes from Platoon, T-800 from Terminator, Barney Ross from Expandables etc etc
But check this out: Hot Toys Iron Monger! It's so recent that they didn't even have time to splash on some paint to make it look less "plasticky" and "toyish"
1/6 Thor was also there and the god of thunder looks GOOD
Let's not forget the 1/6 girls who were there as well - Resident Evil Jill Valentine Battlesuit version
I'm most excited about this :> Resident Evil Alice. Finally, a 1/6 scale Milla Jovovich female action figure is within reach and happening very soon too

ReplyDeleteWell, 2011 must be a year of heavy shopping. Let's start to keep money. I hope to see a 1989 Batmobile. But haven't seen Superman/Reeve on this Expo. Where is he??
ReplyDeleteI was just watching the Resident Evil series and now this!!!. What a coincidence. Must have alice, she's so kickass yo
ReplyDeleteYou know what Hot Toys should do for the RE series? They should make the classic Jill Valentine figure with changeable Stars uniform and RE3's outfit =P
ReplyDeleteHT should consider doing Neo-Keanu Reeve, with both the trench coat and kung fu coat.
ReplyDeleteThey are all looking very good..Alice likeness is quite good too :)
ReplyDeleteMan oh MAN!! That Jill is looking awesome! I'm def. gonna make moves on that. I still hope they make an alternate version of Sheva.
ReplyDeleteI also heard that Hot Toys will be doing some characters from the Metal Gear series.
