    Between this and The Great Wall, what is up with big budget flops getting these detailed collector's figures?

    I don't know who would want this after seeing that piece of shit film. Maybe if you absolutely must have a generic Scarlett Johansson figure?

    Those may be flops here, but sad to say the U.S. is no longer the center of the universe. Film makers are realizing that there's a BIGGER audience count in China and Asia in general, and some of these films are geared toward that audience. And guess what? Toy makers and a LOT of toy buyers are in Asia also!

    If you ever venture to these 1/6 figures websites and see what people do with their 1/6 female figures, YES, there are a LOT of people out there just salivating over this generic Scarlett Johansson figure!

    I'm getting some of the The Great Wall figures, that at least was a good film. I just hope ThreeZero didn't pay much for the GitS license.

    Yeah, that's what I figured. I'm sure it'll make a great base for a custom figure. That being said, I'd at least wait for this to inevitably hit clearance before pulling the trigger on it.

    Because bangs?

    The hair! I meant the hair!

    Great Wall made a metric ton of money domestic and overseas, so I don't consider it a flop. While I haven't seen GITS in theater, it's gotten panned badly (60% on RT, 40% rotten from critics). And it's only made 39 million against it's production cost of 110, so....

    The Great Wall did great in its native market: China (and also its primary target market: also China). It's a Chinese film made by the Chinese, intended for a Chinese audience, with a side of Hollywood fame thrown in there to try to appeal to the West. In that regard, it did exceptionally well.

    GitS is a bit more murky, as even though the Japanese audience loved it, it didn't make too much money in Asia. Well, not enough to offset the US box-office bomb. People will buy the shit out of these merch though. I guess that's one way to recoup the film budget.

    I haven't seen the movie and have no interest in the property whatsoever. I will say that this sculpt looks like Scarlett Johansson, something I find Hot Toys has not been able to achieve.

    This I'll get if she is wearing her stealth suit under the jacket there. I actually enjoyed the movie. I don't know if it was up to par with the anime version but I thought the special effects were really good. Just my two cents there.

    Threezero loves flops! TMNT CGI movies for example. Chappie was even a bit of a flop, though it's not a bad movie. Not really a figure warranted movie.

    I'm definitely going to get this. I for one actually really liked the movie. Definitely way better then it's been given. Can't wait. I wonder if she has the White stealth suit too

  16. Meta's Avatar Meta says

    Doesn't look like she has the stealth suit she wears in the film. Good looking figure but I was hoping she would have the stealth suit.

    Yeah I noticed they should have included it for the price you pay but hell I'ma still get her though.

    I know nothing about this character, but the designs are interesting and I like Scarlett Johansson generally. Is there a reason for the stain over her right shoulder?

    Same about Scarlett Johansson. And no not really i didn't even notice it until you said something I don't remember there being a stain when I went to see the movie.

    I'd love to have a Batou figure. (Google search for Bateau talks about boats? Search for "Batou," he's the main result. So Batou it is.)
