I'm really looking forward to when they'll announce and release Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and Thor: Ragnarok

Also with the fact Daredevil and Punisher both from the Netflix series will release sometime soon (I saw DD pics but I haven't seen the Punisher but heard word of mouth about it so I'm hoping that is coming as well) Wouldn't it be cool to have a 1/6 Defenders line? Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Misty Knight..That would be so cool to see something like that in the future or even at the next Toy Fair in February.

I bet we'll see Hot Toys for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 in February along with Thor: Ragnarok.

I'm still hoping their Arkham City Joker will eventually see release.

I am curious as always to see what they will have at Toy Soul. Will there be a CW Spidey? Maybe figure(s) from the Logan movie? Maybe we'll finally get Batman Returns villains? Who knows!

I'm just getting into Hot Toys. I was wondering if this was a bootleg or not... I know it's from China but I was reading that they have a retailer in China? I'm so lost.

If they're Buy-It-Now selling that low, and they're from China, there's a good chance it's bootleg.

I don't ever buy anything on ebay that is not from the US for various reasons, this being one of them.

I think that's legit, personally.

1. It's a US-based seller.
2. Their feedback is exceptional. If they were knock-offs, somebody surely would've noticed by now.
3. The figures they are selling have been heavily discounted elsewhere, including Sideshow themselves.

I would say they have a source on wholesale pricing on poor selling figures. Not just Hot Toys, but some Sideshow, too.

(Somebody really overestimated the demand for First Order troopers.)

I swore when I first checked that the seller was based in China. Maybe they changed their location? Or maybe I just saw Omanlew say "I know it's from China" and that overwrote the actual seller location in my mind when I checked it? Also, no longer necessarily saying the seller isn't legit, but feedback is quite often very good on sellers of knockoffs, from what I've seen.

Ditto! And I'm chinese too although not from the mainland haha. Although I would buy from Japan and Taiwan, also it depends on the item too.

What do you mean "very good on sellers of knock offs"? Are you saying that even KO get good reviews on ebay?

Just from personal experience, looking at sellers whose products are obviously knockoffs if you know what you're looking for, they surprisingly often have very high scores. Doesn't mean the scores are legitimate.

I would love to see Hot Toys get the license to next year's Dark Tower movie.

Thanks for the feedback, I get confused because in the product description on the link page it says it was made/manufactured in China which throws me off.
