Very nice. For his size that price is really good.
Power Pose series = glorified statue. Knew it was too good to be true.
Well that's lame. He's got barely any articulation. No wonder he's so cheap.
Imagine if Ayer had embraced the more comicy direction for Killer Croc. We could have had an awesome, huge live action iteration that Hot Toys may have deemed worthy of a figure instead of just ‘regular sized man with nasty skin condition.’
Saw the movie and have no desire to own a single character from it but the price on this may be good enough to temp a few more casuals to buy.
This is pretty much what I expected from the preview photos, I don't know why anyone is surprised. Great price for what you're getting.
Yes! A modern super expensive figure of an awesome character that comes with ancient articulation....wait what? Hot Toys should just start making statues. The power pose line is just insulting people's intelligence. In this day and age calling that an action figure is a joke.
Very odd/
The knees could've been articulated if they wanted to as the shorts hides the sculpt.
Trash. Pass.
They lost an opportunity by not including the Mustache hand. I really enjoyed the movie as a Gunn chance to make an R Rated movie.
Just my opinion, but this is a new low.
lol I can't believe everyones butthurt over this. Did you guys see the prototype? What type of articulation did you expect? With fully painted arms they're not going to do vinyl bendable arms like Thanos. With this guy's design, unless you want giant articulation cuts this is as best as it was going to be.
Be happy this is being produced at all.

I don't own Thanos, but even back in the day my Ada Wong and Sheva Alomar and GotG Gamora have 100% seamless joints.
No way they couldn't do it here.
