hot toy's 1/6 prison break figure images

Blister.jp [images via] has just listed Hot Toys' Prison Break1/6-duo of Inmate Michael Scofield and Lincoln Burrows: with headsculpts by Korean artists JC Hong and Yuili (Captain Sao Feng), the prototype-images shown are darn decent (just hope the production pieces are as accurate, yeh? ;p). and i wonder if Scofield comes with his full-bod tattos, yeh? that would be pretty darn cool, yeh? ...

hot toy's 1/6 jack sparrow

images of Hot Toy's 1/6 Jack Sparrow figure [blogged] has surfaced on Blister [images via] and personally, i haveta say: the details are insane!the headsculpt is pretty decent actually (as compared to Medicom's , but definitely not to Kojun's LOL) ... and as much as i abhor moulded hair, tis a standard industry-evil that has to be tolerated for now (customizers would no doubt add their own touch

hot toy's pirates of the carribean cosbaby figures

... im actually quite "torn" with my opinion of Hot Toy's upcoming CosBaby mini-figures [blogged] - tis either a lame'o super-deformed series designed for commercial-$$$, or tis just goshdarn-cute LOL - i'll let you decide for yourself with these images from Blister:i reckon Davy Jones is quite the cute decomposing-squiddy, innit? ;p*more individual character images after the jump*standing @

hot toy's 1/6 captain sao feng figure

hot toys' 1/6 true type figures

one of the only few "consistent" producers of "nude" 1/6th scaled male figures so far has been Hot Toys, this time with a duo of figure-types, under their True Type Figure series, namely: a "Bronze" and "Black"-version [via] and while the "Bronze"-figure (the Beckham-sculpt no doubt would be one of it's key draws) follows the previous variations in "Normal" ("tanned-Asian") and even "Caucasian",

1/6 brothersworker color smart

the thing about Brothersworker-figures that appeal to me so, are the detailed tools the figures possess (props also to Hot Toys, i reckon). i mean, the headsculpts and body-tattoos are brill, as are the "history" and backstory to alla them (always lurve it when there's a story and concept that comes along with a toy) but tis them tools that get to me every single time i look at them online or

superman returns 1/6 figure comparisons

Superman 1/6 Comparisons = visual / pictorial comparisons between DC Direct, Hot Toys and Medicom-versions of (the Brandon Routh) Superman (Returns) 1/6th-figure [via]personally, i reckon tis pretty hard to get the fit and form proportions right for a hero that wears his red-undies on the outside, innit? tis either too loose or rides-up too much, never the "perfect-fit", eh? *heh*

hot toy's top gun aviators

Iceman and Maverick? and all i hear is Danger Zone in my brainbox ... *shudder*Hot Toy's new Aviator-set: F/A-18 Hornet and F-14 Tomcat possesses an uncanny reference to the film; Top Gun - and while Val Kilmer's a near-dead-on likeness, Tom Cruise's "Maverick" looks too generic, IMHO. (ie: Kilmer would be less likely to sue)i've no particular lurve for pilot-action-figures, so i reckon i'll be
