Pom is half korean. JC Hong is korean. She has met the Hot Toys team before and the team doesn't get to work on alot of asian characters. Not surprised they gave Pom a little more attention and love in tweaking her sculpt last minute. That's my theory at least.
I am all for Hot Toys posting those upcoming releases teasers often. I cant imagine any of these new figures will release before the remaining figures from their last upcoming teaser? I.e. ROTJ Vader, 89 Batman etc.
An angry Harrison Ford likeness on a Red Hulk? Yeah I need that! Considering Hot Toys shared the teaser on Facebook they at least seem interested, they don't do that as often anymore last time they did that was with Deadpool and Wolverine and before that it was a Loki season 2 trailer all the way back in August 2023. And we even got She-Hulk, no way they are skipping the Harrison Ford version of Hulk lol.
The problem with Will's choice in exclusives, is they're essential for some people's collections but will be impossible for some of to get. Corvus Glaive for example. Some of us in other parts of the world would want that too
@@WillFoxification Yeah I get it too. You wanna get excited and interested in the exclusives, not just the artisans. But the exclusives seem to only benefit US buyers (generally speaking), so repaints are actually perfect. No exclusive should be a "definitive" version of a character...and Corvus Glaive would only ever get 1 iteration I reckon.
I just ordered Mantis, and it is in the post as i type. Sideshow has the figure waitlisted, so i went with Toys Buying Agent, and there offer free shipping! ..i just hope they do not go south like Toys Wonderland, who appear to be trading under a new name?
Man, hard disagree on the opinions of InArt's Jokers. The jail cell joker is good, but the purple coat is near perfect. But both are fantastic, really. No way Hot Toys Artisan joker is going to "sweep" the others unless Hot Toys revised his hair. They gave him a full, healthy head of hair with a great hairline and it's immediately noticeable.
My iritation with the Iron Man repaints is that they have the House Party Protocol that they could dip into. That black and gold mk7 should've 100% been the mk20 python. The CGI looks mediocre for the Captain America movie. I still need a Sam representation in my collection and I much prefer the "stealth" suit he's wearing now over the one he wore in the show. BUT I would 100% get his civil war suit WITH seamless arms if they made a 2.0. Dean's charger OMG 😂😂😂
Is so funny to me that every single time that I've noticed this that as soon as they announced a Marvel movie and when you see the full trailer or teaser trailer drops there will be more complaints about the film than people just excited to see it and the complaints are from people who haven't even seen the film at all and I don't understand Marvel that when they were creating this movie in the beginning why they didn't put on much more decision making when it came to this character who supposedly is supposed to be Jewish and just starting up a whole bunch of problems especially with the things that are really happening in Israel and I don't know why they didn't have a better course of judgment when making these decisions from what I'm hearing is supposed to be a very important character in this movie knowing how sensitive the issue would be
I think will you should buy mom wanda because she's a very different figure compared to the upcoming artisan figure. She have a real custom compared to the artisan that is more casual. I find it very interesting that the more time passes the inart joker is starting to look worse. Still a good figure but probably not better than the upcoming hot toys.
1:24:58 Pinocchio - It does not even look like Pinocchio. If you are going to offer a Pinocchio, atleast get the nose on point (a wooden rod) and have the eye's open. It is not even a bust, it looks like a head? What were Hot Toys thinking? ..WHO buys this stuff???
don't think the hot toys joker beats the one from inart...the one with the blue coat is very good...the one from the prison a little less so...but we'll see...from the start the hot toys prototype doesn't wins the one who made inart
What are the odd's of Harry Potter - Hagrid happening? ..as i would want to add a Robbie Coltrane figure to the collection. JND need to stop offering what InArt are offering, as it makes no sense.
Yeah that Moff Gideon is pretty lame. Not HT's fault, the design is lazy as. That HS however is a lot better than the first as Keco says. I'm hoping it doesn't sell enough that I can just get one for the head and stick it on my 1.0, And haaaa Darkside Pizza. That guy is such a... "character".
I think JND are going more on the right track with lowering the prices . And while I am no HP fan, I think their likeness is better ,looks more like actual kids , while InArt on all of their figures give vibes of CGI rendition of the characters . I think Kojun competing on the same IPs and especially if lowering the prices is good and competition helps the customers ,gives us options . But it seems the community has actively hype and shill fir InArt ( though ,some people are waking up from the hype slowly now ,and starting to see those figures without the hype glasses ) , while as a herd everybody just follows on hating on JND ,even when they try course correction.
@@WillFoxification I mean , I understand their snobbery as an approach ,is not likable, not a fan of it either , but what they did lately is significantly lower their prices . The 3 HP figures fully silicone ,glass eyes , rooted etc ,cost together less than the 3 same figures by InArt . On top of that their Lite versions being on HT prices ,around 1/2 of the InArt prices for the HP figures . I’m not trying to play “ Devil’s advocate “ , I just want more companies giving us more options , upgrading the quality and lowering prices . Meanwhile , everybody still eating out of InArt’s hand ,despite the reality proving their words are either empty or lies . They act nice and appear on streams ,act as if they care ,but their actions show a different story . The QC issues I see piling up , I have honestly not seen even on third party figures that cost 1/3 of theirs. I just think people are still wearing the hype glasses ,overhype merch that while good is not ideal,and obviously the QC is subpar . Believing empty promises and ignoring the reality check . And The Ultra Slow Shipping. While riding the hate train towards JND even when they obviously are trying to change . They obviously won’t play nice ,but if at the end of the day can deliver on competative prices ,still a win in my book. Idk , I personally love competition and options . And everyone should be left to choose what they wanna buy for themselves,not being hated for liking more a JND or Asmus ,or HT product over the InArt version .

This could be the reason! Close to home
Cheers for doing these every week guys. Always a good listen!
Thanks bro! We try! Thanks for watching
Best livestream I've seen from any channel this year... fire takes... random interruptions.... and laughing every 2 minutes. Good job, guys!!
haha thanks bro! Kind words indeed!
It was the best live stream here I have watched so far
Thanks so much! It was funny lol!
Another banger fellas. Keco dropping truth bombs again with that base :)
lol a classic KēCo rant. Thanks rich
I am all for Hot Toys posting those upcoming releases teasers often. I cant imagine any of these new figures will release before the remaining figures from their last upcoming teaser? I.e. ROTJ Vader, 89 Batman etc.
Yeah I’d assume not! I like seeing the pics too!
@WillFoxification Dean's charger and Keco's rant over the base were hilarious, good stuff lol
@keco thanks for the shout out man!
lol nice!
Inart's Hermione looks more like Isabella Merced than it does to Emma Watson, this JND Hermione looks more accurate.
Maybe it’ll win over some hp fans!
An angry Harrison Ford likeness on a Red Hulk? Yeah I need that!

And we even got She-Hulk, no way they are skipping the Harrison Ford version of Hulk lol.
the community would support red hulk for sure!
It’s up to Harrison Ford to sign off on his likeness like Affleck and the Flash Film that extended down to even Mcfarlane toys
The problem with Will's choice in exclusives, is they're essential for some people's collections but will be impossible for some of to get. Corvus Glaive for example. Some of us in other parts of the world would want that too
Haha maybe so! I just want to see some cool new characters and less repaints
@@WillFoxification Yeah I get it too. You wanna get excited and interested in the exclusives, not just the artisans. But the exclusives seem to only benefit US buyers (generally speaking), so repaints are actually perfect. No exclusive should be a "definitive" version of a character...and Corvus Glaive would only ever get 1 iteration I reckon.
1:04:33 I was getting Mission Impossible vibes from this trailer, it feels more like a spy action thriller than a Marvel movie.
yes that too!
This is one of the funniest streams I’ve watched! Had me in stitches at times. Great as always!
Thanks bro! This was a wild one!
Isn't it more likely that Mantis was updated using the Vol 3 head sculpt that is now never coming..... ?
possibly lol!
I love Pinocchio in the diorama base! Pinocchio got stuck in quicksand.
lol I had to make that graphic quick!
@@WillFoxification 🤣 turned out great!
I just ordered Mantis, and it is in the post as i type. Sideshow has the figure waitlisted, so i went with Toys Buying Agent, and there offer free shipping! ..i just hope they do not go south like Toys Wonderland, who appear to be trading under a new name?
Yeah tba should deliver!
This is Man Hands from Seinfeld - I cant look away
damn what a reference lol!
Keep up the great work gents. Shout out from Ireland 🇮🇪.
niceeee! Thanks bro!
@@WillFoxification you're welcome. Loving these streams it's a great panel.
Great stream guys, that Disney bust, what the hell! lol
yeah who knows!
Man, hard disagree on the opinions of InArt's Jokers. The jail cell joker is good, but the purple coat is near perfect. But both are fantastic, really.

I think the purple coat InArt is way better than the jail cell version, yes! I think Artisan may top it...but we'll see!

dude Sam's new stealth suit is very cool. Dean's charger broke us lol
John fears Keco
I remember when hot toys did real exclusives not repaints like the star spangled man Captain America & swat uniform Jim Gordon
yes like those!
Tech is probably my favorite
nice choice!

We’ll see how the film plays out!
I think will you should buy mom wanda because she's a very different figure compared to the upcoming artisan figure. She have a real custom compared to the artisan that is more casual. I find it very interesting that the more time passes the inart joker is starting to look worse. Still a good figure but probably not better than the upcoming hot toys.
You were right, I did pick up MOM Wanda also! Yeah InArt Joker is still the best for now, but Hot Toys may top them here soon...!
Jnd=just no demand
Sadly lol

Maybe it’s a Disney collector lol
“craft projects”
yeah I really like the bases myself!
Keco “craft projects”
yeah lol!
don't think the hot toys joker beats the one from inart...the one with the blue coat is very good...the one from the prison a little less so...but we'll see...from the start the hot toys prototype doesn't wins the one who made inart
Yeah I like the purple coat InArt, but we’ll see
No my super chat went missed 😢
did it? I didn't see it, I'm sorry!
@WillFoxification no big deal it was essentially saying I found it interesting no artisian Anakin on upcoming release but joker is
What are the odd's of Harry Potter - Hagrid happening? ..as i would want to add a Robbie Coltrane figure to the collection. JND need to stop offering what InArt are offering, as it makes no sense.
Yeah I hope so!
I like the Mandalorian s3 but that guard looks so plastic it's painful 😳🙄
90% of Star Wars troopers look like they are wearing Plastic, this is nothing new.
I bet it'll look good on display!
Yeah that Moff Gideon is pretty lame. Not HT's fault, the design is lazy as. That HS however is a lot better than the first as Keco says. I'm hoping it doesn't sell enough that I can just get one for the head and stick it on my 1.0, And haaaa Darkside Pizza. That guy is such a... "character".
Nice! Moff is cool with his 2.0

You could be right about this. There is definitely some hate train going on. I do think they're not helping their case lately though.
