Legal implications regarding orange pants? Huh?

Yeah, go figure

I wonder if he is wearing a jumpsuit of a specific team or sponsor and that would require licensing just for his jumpsuit

The likeness is great. Still having a hard time getting too excited about this one though. Maybe after the movie comes out.

Then remove the logo. No need to change the color. Whatever. I'm still getting it. Looks great.

And the sharks will come to tell what they hate about the figure..... i hope your ready.

(punches the computer ) come on !!!!!

Just saw the pics on HT's Facebook page. What a fantastic figure!!

There are some REALLY cool things about the figure... the exoskeleton... the likeness... the tatoos...

I guess it's just not knowing whether this will be his definitive look or not or if they're saving something to surprise us with. Guess we'll know soon enough.

I wonder if the legal implications stem more from the pants being reserved for a specific purpose - like a safety crew or something. Similar to the way cars aren't supposed to have red or blue accessory lights because people might confuse them with the police. How that relates to a figure... I don't know.

Frankly I think the brown looks better anyway.

the likeness is AMAZING.

Nice!! .

Now where the ____ is Wookster with the HQ pics!!!

I love the way they did the electrical effect.

i told myself i wouldnt want a rourke figure. and of course i have it pre ordered. this thing is just too damn cool not tot have

During hunting season, I can go to any clothier around here and buy a set of orange pants. There's got to be way more too this, and I for one am eager to find out what.

Wow! Great work Hot Toys

good boy, buttmunch. good boy.

those pics are pretty damn impressive. i will definitely be getting this. the pants color really doesn't bother me that much tbh cuz you can still tell what they are, and if anything, they could just look like a weathered orange in real life...idk just not that big a deal imo.
anyway, awesome lookin figure and an easy buy.

Wow. I'll probably pre-order this now and just watch the movie in May and see what happens.

Yeah, it takes time to load these things. I don't know how Wookster does it so often!

It's creepy how realistic that head sculpt is.
