If people don't understand at this point that "investing" in hot toys is a losing idea then you deserve what you get. These are not investments, they will ultimately lose most of their value over time. And reissues are happening, so if you love collecting, buy them and display them. If you're still "investing" at THIS point, you deserve what you get!
Exactly! It’s so crazy to me that people think this. Best scenario, what, you make $500-$600? After 4-5 years. Dude, you can make that in a week doing literally anything else.
If you’re looking at these as an investment then you’re seriously not a collector. If you want to have leverage to flip figures you’re a fraud fan. Completely agree with the original comment here. I have Cap Endgame and I couldn’t care less he’s worth peanuts because they made a million figures of him. The figure is awesome. Just using that one as an example. Can’t wait for New Red & Blue suit NWH Holland. Could he be flipped? Yes. Will I do it? No way.
Yes, they are not investments. I do like them to maintain some semblance of value, but I think that's actually happening right now. Good enough for me!
That Catwoman is literally the only character from ANY Batman movie i care about,and I don’t care about Batman himself enough . I don’t collect on nostalgia ,but this character in particular was a huge thing for me as a kid ( alongside 1992 Dracula ,the only characters from my childhood i care about ). The moment Eternal dropped theirs i POed the deluxe . Next day Jazzinc dropped theirs 😅. And im gonna preorder theirs as well ,lol. I hope they can deliver .
Unless I missed something Joost was referring to the Mars Toys Catwoman announcement. Not Eternal? With the incredible headsculpt? And ooh my pet hate justifying not knowing stuff with what year you were born? I've heard of oh I don't know Elvis, The Beatles, seen King Kong, Casablanca, know of the first and second world wars etc, etc... Sorry you just pushed my buttons!😳 My only question about Jazzinc who I love, is the paint/deco. It's their only weak point with the vehicles, the weathering.
Great stream. I agree 100% with Keco the way to use the armory is to take the new figure out and put your DX19 in it instead. Just need to figure out if it's worth selling my 1.0 armory to upgrade for the USB light
I recall a JazzInc live chat (i forget the RU-vid channel) and JazzInc mentioned, Batman sells, Batman sells big time, bigger than Star Wars!. I guess that could be one reason Hot Toys are pushing more Batman out. With Eternal Toys offering an unlicensed Catwoman, and JazzInc offering a licensed Catwoman, could Hot Toys be hot on the tails of both, and drop a Michelle Pfeiffer Catwoman? as it is about time they did. Can you imagine if InArt got in on the Michelle Pfeiffer 1/6th figure game? ..so much choice! ..for the moment, JazzInc. might be the one to go for, and at a good price. The question is, how well will the JazzInc. figure turn out? as they have zero experience when it comes to figures. Proto's are one thing, getting the factory to deliver is another time. Look at some of the issues Big_Chief_Studio had with some of their figures (Big_Chief_Studio has since shut shop). 1:02:40 (Dean the Dream) I thought it was Sean Dabbs doing the JazzInc. Catwoman portraits. 1:10:00 Hot Toys Upcoming - For the moment, dare i say it, Hot Toys are slipping off my radar. I would like to know when She-HULK is going to drop? ^_^
I do not own a bale batman, i hated the first two movie suits, but enjoyed the stories, hated Bale’s BM, Im MK all the way, ive never wanted a bale BM until this one. Definite Spidey will be released after joost unveils his latex CW suit.
inart isn’t in Hong Kong (they don’t have the licence here for quite a few figures) and those influencers are not from Hong Kong. They are speaking mandarin not Cantonese. Please get your information correct, it’s a professional courtesy to respect different cultures and borders cause Hk is not china. It’s like saying Italian is the same as Spanish.
If Jazzinc pulls this off and shes amazing, for that price point, people better start realizing how Inart is totally screwing them over. But we'll have to wait and see.
Its odd the troopers (black & white) w/DS environment, Imperial Commando (BB), Obi Wan (Mandalorian armor), etc were just announced but are already out. The timing of announcements/releasing BM DX19, DKR armory, DK armory 2.0, etc seems odd too. These actions were probably planned at least yr or two ago. HT must anticipate how collectors will respond. Most businesses make decisions in order to make a max profit. The current state of global economy makes those decisions harder. I'm sure on the business side (capital, logistics, etc) of HT there are things going on that we are not aware of. W/that being said its hard to know mindset of HT. Enjoyed your video. Keep up the hard work.
It’s a false comparison ,InArt shipping issues and Sideshow retribution issues of HT for North America . Because Sideshow is an international redistributive of Hot Toys . While InArt have not shipped internationally anything so far , the only thing InArt must do is ship in HK and mainland , and then the stores from there take it on for international. InArt can’t even ship in time in their internal market ,let alone to compare to international distribution.
Okay, I'm confused. I saw the armory that had suit and power pose, bruce wayne.. than they upgraded the bat suit? And now an actual 1/6 bruce wayne figure
I'm so sick of these companies making the same figures of a trilogy that ended 12 years ago, please move on, no more Nolan trilogy for at least 25 years
