Just added this cool figure to the CTR Photo Archive.
Cool Toy Review's Hot Toys Watchmen Photo Archive
If no one buys her because they want to see if they continue the line, then there's no chance that they will continue the line....
I agree - they should plan their lines better.
But they don't.
I thought it was a no brainer that they would release Rorschach because that would be the smart thing to do - but now I'm not convinced they'll do the smart thing.
Me personally - I've never been into the "one or two characters a line" thing. If I like the movie, then 99% of the time that means I like more than one character and want more than one character to be made. I would be in for all six Watchmen because I love it that much. I would have been in for more Pirates figures, even though I don't like the sequels.
She's The Comedian's daughter - she makes plenty of sense displayed with the Comedian.
Personally, I think it sucks to have Rorschach without Nite Owl, but I want him regardless because I love the character.
I actually like Silk Spectre way more than The Comedian. Even if they'd made no other Watchmen figures, I would have bought her.
Not all the marks are invisible with her outfit on. I highlight Michael's (mwctoys) pics for example... As you will/might pose her legs in more varied positions more marks will be left behind. Just to point out more flaws to an already flawed figure.Why not just leave her outfit on, pose her in your detolf and enjoy looking at her?!
I for one don't care about those marks invisible under her costume. She is plastic and paint y'know?
Got mine yesterday...
I like her, but it's obvious HT dropped the ball on costume design and QC. The suit just puckers in too many places. The collar is thick and awkward due to the way the zipper is sewn in. I mostly hid it under her hair. At some point, HT is also going to have to start better addressing how their fabrics discolor bodies, rubber parts leak fluid, etc. (no figure of mine has done any of that so far, but we see this sort of thing happen a little too often.) (very afraid about getting DX Batman)
The tailoring on SS's clothes could be a lot better. The poor tailoring is a lot of what affects the "sexiness" of this figure. The headsculpt is nice, and the overcoat is really nice.
I had to do a LOT of "futzing" on her costume- straightening and tightening straps, re-aligning things, etc.
That looks great. One of the better in hand set ups so far.
