The only reason you'd wanna buy Hot Toys from Amiami is because you can't preorder it here or other websites anymore.

Amiami is like rm200 more than local shop, then you add the shipping from Japan etc you end up paying much more.

Local HT price might be abit higher than HK but still consider cheap compared to overseas.

Somemore ordered 2.

WHY..... The only logical choice when purchase at retail price is to buy from local Malaysian distributor.

Your money goes to shipping, tax and higher retail price.... that's up to 30% additional cost

The only way to get exclusive at retail price is directly from SS.

Exclusive is like $5 more than normal edition.

There are local retailers selling sideshows stuffs in KL. Too risky to ship from sideshows coz if get damage...it's only a 1 way ticket and no exchange.

Not lately... exclusive is the same price as the normal version... though you'll (Malaysians will) not buy the normal version from SS any-ways...

That's regarding VIP exclusives... Toay-fair exclusive has a larger opportunity.... than just limited to HK VIP and SSC....

To be more accurate: The retail price (without shipping and tax) is give or take is only about MYR 20 to 30 difference ...NOT RM 200 .... It was not even RM200 with the highest Yen rate to Myr is recent history (100 yen to 4 myr).

Take Amiami's retail PO price and if you deduct RM200 from it ... that local shop will get ALL my business....

It is never close to "release", just pre-release, pre-view and pre-order to suck our wallet dry then wait for ages for it to be RELEASED. But I'll passed on IM series...

Close down usually means shop business not so good which translate to not able to support the expenses of the business due to lack of cash to support it. So it is normal when they didnt refund.

Yeah, I meant the HS..but for this MK. 21, I dun think there will be a HS rite? Anyway, knowing HT fans, imagine what they queue will be like in STGCC since there's only limited units for immediate take-home..not even gonna bother since it's same mold as MK. 7..yawn.gif

Q&A with Howard Chan (Hot Toys) ....by Mark OSR:

QUOTE
1. After the release of Jor El, are you considering a Russel Crowe figure as Maximus from the Gladiator movie?

No plans on making it at the moment.

2. Since the movie MOS was a worldwide success, do you plan to make other character figure besides Superman, Jor EL, General Zod? Faora?

Maybe, Depends on the success of the MOS figures.

3. Do you have any plans on releasing Maria Hill figure from the Avengers movie, and the most requested Pepper Potts? by the way, we saw a teaser about Bruce Banner with his clothes on, when will it be released for pre-order?

No plans on making Maria Hill figure, But we are already in the process of making Pepper Potts, head sculpt is ready by now. Bruce Banner needs approval, hopefully soon.

4. Any news on the reissue of Predators figures line, from the movie Predator, Predator 2, Predators, AVP, AVP Requiem? We saw teasers before about the ¼ line, are they just delayed or cancelled already? Regarding the Prometheus Movie, is there also a delay on the figures?

Prometheus is soon, We might remake Elder Predator, Dutch, and other predators.

5. Johnny Depp is the most favoured Hot Toys figure, any advice when will the Ichabod Crane? Or any other JD figures you want to produce besides those characters provided? Like reissuing Edward Scissorhands, Alice in wonderland, Public Enemies, Charlie and the chocolate factory, etc

Ichabod Crane is almost done. although we want to, we have no plans with regards to Alice in Wonderland and Charlie Chocolate factory.

6. Regarding the Dark Knight movie figure line, Any plans on making Ras Al Ghul, Blake Police uniform, Gordon with formal suit, or others not in the list?

Ras Al Ghul not yet confirmed but many messaged us about it. Yes, we will make Blake but not Gordon with formal suit.

7. Why is there a delay on X-Men First Class figure line?, Even Professor X is delayed, will this line still be continued?

We will try to make it for next year, maybe release it together with the movie release of X-Men: Days of Future Past.

8. Regarding the figures from the movie Batman Returns, You told me last time they will be released last Dec 2012, Any reason of the delay? Do you have any plans on making another Batman figure or perhaps other characters like Penguin, Catwoman, Riddler, etc?

Yes, We will still make it but the release date will be delayed.

9. Any update you can share on the Back to the Future figures? Which figure do you prioritize to make? Marty Mcfly, Doc Browm, or the Delorean?

Yes, they will be postponed to 2014.

10. I know you are an avid Star Wars fan, but your Star Wars line up are all delayed, Any reason why? Also After Luke Skywalker, What other characters are you planning to make? (ex: Han Solo, Princess Leia, Anakin Skywalker)

Yes Anakin Skywalker but it will also be a little delayed but it will definitely be a DX.

11. Batman Arkham City was a huge success with gamers, will you be making a Batman or Joker figure based on it?

Delayed also.

12. Is the Terminator ¼ Line still a go? Any news regarding Michael Jackson Smooth Criminal figure, Why is the delay? Also the Rocky and Rambo figures?

Yes, Terminator 1/4 line is still a go. The Michael Jackson Smooth Criminal is also a go but delayed because it has a pending approval. and yes, Rocky and Rambo figures will be continued and maybe Rocky figure will be released earlier than the Rambo figure.

13. Any plans on making a Commando figure or Conan the Barbarian?

We are planning on the Commando figure but no news with Conan the Barbarian.

Mark Osr: "I forgot to add there about the Wolverine. They are making a new Wolverine!"
