now this here this is my jam 1/6 scale figures from the world of Star Wars and
Marvel and DC and to see all of these from the history of sideshow it's just
so cool there's something about a 12-inch character and the cut and so the
poseability of 6 scale that just makes it so fun to photograph and to pose and
not just have sitting on a shelf and/or about to check out the newest ones from
their partners at Hot Toys for 2020 some convention exclusives let's go take a
look so Amy typically a San Diego comic-con you at your booth you would be
unveiling new stuff from your partner hot toys and you're doing the same thing
here at sideshow con tell me about the Convention exclusives for this year yes
so we were so privileged that Hot Toys was able to send their prototypes and
the convention exclusives to us so that we could show them off at this booth we
do have three of the four convention summer exclusives on a display we have
the Iron Man mark 4 holographic addition there is the whiplash 6 scale figure
from Iron Man 2 and then the last convention exclusive is the spider-man
spider-man 2099 black suit from Marvel's spider-man Wow and they all kind of
represent a different take that hot toys is doing you know one is a movie
accurate version of whiplash you know that the race racetrack scene and then
spider-man 2 9 9 they've been doing a lot of different spider-man what's
interesting is that the poses you can do with this can tell me about the cutting
so here well hot toys has been doing an amazing job with all of these from the
marble gamer first this is of course based on Marvel spider-man the hit video
game they have been doing an amazing job intricate cutting so on these costumes
lots of little details and I think the best part is that fans who have been
clamoring for comic book versions of spider-man they get a treat with all the
different suits that have been featured both in the game at as classic comic
books suits so 2099 2099 is a huge one for fans to get its I
don't know how close you can get to it but with the detail so many different
textured panels there's different materials based on where he would need
more movement in in a realistic superhero suit situation there are
sculpted armor bits especially for 2099 kind of logo and the red elements on his
suit these are so highly poseable I got my hands on the punk suit and the the
poses you can do with these are just as acrobatic as you can perform in the
video game the classic suit is a premier item as well a lot of fans have been
requesting just a classic suit spider-man and because the game features
fond hot toys has delivered on that classic red and blue of course these all
come with of course web slinging hands numbers of different web accessories and
just everything that you would want to do a classic spider-man flip or web
swing or three-point pose on the ground and they do come with dynamic stands as
well so you can support your crazy and imaginative poses with a stand that
bends and holds them aloft to compensate for that and of course the armored
spider-man which on its face the same color palette as your classic but it's
really that different texture material to make it look like it's structurally
different yeah and it has that kind of glossy ER feel and especially the red
elements feel that they are more padded and protected this is a Spider Man who
needs a little extra support on the job and Hot Toys has sent us the special LED
light that also reveals the reflective patterns that kind of give the armored
spider-man a holographic or kind of technological feel revealing a hexagonal
pattern throughout the costume and so that's a really unique display element
that collectors can enjoy with their piece as well and it's interesting is
the source material here is the video game the video game assets and so
they're interpreting something that woods digital into the real world as a
collectible figure it really gives you that sense of the in-game HUD where he
is choosing his suit upgrades and everything like that
now I also can't believe it's been over a year since endgame came out and I know
they've been releasing hot toys been releasing the endgame figures I love
this fan out here I know it's sixth scale but it almost
looks quarter scale how big this is this is the Battle Damage yes this is the
Battle Damage version of Thanos he is available pre-order on our website and
like you were saying it's one of those things where you hear the word six scale
and you have this idea of what that scale means but on a character like fan
OHS that is gonna be a substantial size difference with the rest of your heroes
and we do have him on display here with an Iron Man and the new endgame Captain
Marvel for that sense of scale wow you have of course the gauntlet the the Nano
gauntlet yes the the Battle Damage is all over this thing of course his his
beautiful gold and black suit I really love the kind of chromatic burn details
on his shoulder pads as well the the nano gauntlet that he has is of course
damaged and devoid of all stones because iron man did manage to to get the drop
on him and he does have some cool bruise and cut elements with that kind of dark
red purple blood that the Titan bleeds the only thing that you don't have is
the helmet which i think is it's part of the package yes there is a there is a
helmeted portrait but we do have him on display kind of ready to to take back
what is his but of course we know how that ends
in the world of Marvel to Star Wars this is the first time I'm seeing the sixth
scale Mandalorian with the child yes this is the deluxe edition this is the
first time people are getting to see it in person apart from the pictures on our
website the deluxe edition comes with two different versions of the child and
so you can see that we have him in the hovering pram configuration with a
special body that has the child kind of propped up and ready for adventure
looking out at the big wide world and they do have that kind of complementary
base piece the the hover pram adds on to the the sands of the desert that the
Mandalorian is walking through and this is the one with the full best car armor
so he's upgraded he has all that shiny shoulder pad the chest armor it's a
little cleaner less weather than the first version even though you see you
know the dirt of Tatooine on his boots yes of course he does he does have some
of that wear and tear that is consistent with the bounty hunting profession but
his his shining bass car really kind of emphasizes where he is at this point in
the story it is a mixed-media sculpt as well because they do hot toys always
does incredible costume fabrication his long cape over armored pieces like the
jetpack and the the rangefinder helmet yeah speaking of costume fabrication you
have some new Star Wars ones you have Boba Fett this is the vintage color
version I see new also Luke and x-wing this the cutting so here is fantastic
yes hot toys always does an amazing job and and these are kind of the premier
resources for cosplayers as well if they if people really want to see how
something looked on-screen but you only got flashes of it these are the kind of
ultimate representation because hot toys always tries to keep that fidelity to
every aspect of what the the screen maker the filmmakers put on screen
so this is a this is a brand-new premier piece that is the prototype currently
pending licensure approval but this is hot toys his first version of the Luke
Skywalker as an x-wing pilot he is in kind of a snow speeder environment you
can see that he has a Hopf base and he has pieces of his ship and his
lightsaber of course as he is ready to kind of go out I I imagine he's back
from fighting the wampa again just he's got all the elements of an x-wing pilot
really detailed really exciting release for fans of the original trilogy I love
the that's accessories things that you can put in Luke's hands just telling you
where in the movie he is also the different bases thought so it's did a
great job of bringing those worlds into just the way you display them and also
the way that they are mounted even the the kind of body grips stand yes the the
bases always should accentuate the story but never detract from the figure and
Hot Toys does an exceptional job of bringing those environments so you know
exactly where this character might be which helps you inform your poses and
then there are the the kind of cradle grips that help the standing poses and
then the dynamic grips for the flying poses because there's a lot of flying in
Star Wars so we do have the premiere of some exciting Clone Wars pieces so
earlier this year Hot Toys did announce that they had the license for six scale
Clone Wars based on the animated series but of course in Hot Toys his realistic
style so we do see Captain Rex in the center and he is he released on our
website earlier this year he's available for pre-order a lot of fanfare to that
one and he does have a none helmeted sculpt but new for the show are the
prototypes of obi-wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker as realistic incredible
likenesses of you and McGregor and Hayden Christensen but based on their
Clone Wars era costumes so there's a really nice meld of the animated style
and then a movie version of these characters which I think this is proof
of concept that we could have a live-action Clone Wars movie it would be
a dream but again you can see the elements of the cut and so the different
materials used for their tabards and their armor pieces they both have their
lightsabers and obi-wan Kenobi is also displaying a hologram attachment
accessory receiving a transmission during the Clone Wars so I think these
these are really cool pieces I think collectors are going to
be really excited about being able to add these versions of some of their
favorite prequels characters to their collection awesome thank you so much
every of course
