The Loki/Tom Hiddleston Thread. We need Loki-Love. - Part 1 - Page 26

Hot Toys has unveiled its remarkable Loki figure. It is beautiful, with amazing detail. I would have him muzzled and shackled permanently, but that's just me.

IronGirl299 · 05-18-2012, 04:55 AM

That's kind of scary *shudder*

Spoiler!!! Click to Read!:

I don't think I've ever wanted anything more than I want that...well, except for Hiddleston himself.

Godzilla2000 · 05-18-2012, 06:41 AM

That action figure will be a best seller, I guarantee it. It's a fangirl's/boy's wet dream. It must be no coincidence that the name of the company is called Hot Toys.

Well, hey, to a fangirl/boy it would be like owning a miniature clone of Tom Hiddleston.

Silvermoon · 05-18-2012, 07:04 AM

Seriously though, where does one go to get these? (I admit, I'm not familiar enough with Hot Toys to know where they're sold, what online stores/etc... would be the best to go through. I'm in the states, Utah... to be specific)

IronGirl299 · 05-18-2012, 07:26 AM

Am I the only obsessed fan who finds this totally strange and weird?? O_O

Paladin-Hoss · 05-18-2012, 07:34 AM

^^ hehe why?

Hot toys specialty is making action figures based on movies, video games, television show, anime etc.

And they're pretty damn good at it!

...And pretty damn expensive too! Over here almost all their action figures cost around 200 Euro if not more.

Because it's scary! I love Hiddles so much, but not THIS much. It's strange. It's disturbing. And I'm not judging anyone who loves Hot Toys (you're right, they're really good btw) but it's quite strange to have that in your room staring at you the whole day. Even when you're changing.

thalidomide · 05-18-2012, 07:40 AM

Sick figure!

Godzilla2000 · 05-18-2012, 08:39 AM

I love that devotion to detail. It really shows how intricate and beautiful Loki's costume is too.

cofphoto · 05-18-2012, 11:42 AM

I just recently started collecting Hot Toys and as soon as they even showed the one preview photo of this figure, I was pretty much ordered (by my Wife) to buy it.

It was also her idea to see The Avengers, for a 5th time, on Mother's Day.

(she's a keeper)

Pssst! You're never going to get that figure back from her you know.

Silvermoon · 05-18-2012, 12:07 PM

yeah, I'm definitely getting this...and probably the Hawkeye one too (still deciding on Thor)...presents to myself. Yeah, presents

i'm really creeped out by the little realistic hands on the floor in front of him.

Silvermoon · 05-18-2012, 06:45 PM

and I totally just preordered him via sideshowtoys.com, I have no will power *lol*

Estimated ship date is December, so he's a Christmas present to myself *lol* Preordered Hawkeye & Thor too... I've told my sister though, if it sounds like I'm going to order any more, she is to stop me by any means necessary. *lol*

warhorse78 · 05-19-2012, 12:14 AM

Cool toy, but them removable hands are just disturbing, for a toy.

Problem solved. Told you she was a keeper.

Clearly then you're not familiar with Hot Toys. One of the things that makes them awesome IMO is the flexibility / poseability. And a big part of that is the interchangable hands.

Nave 'Torment' · 05-19-2012, 10:28 AM

thought i'd post this here since this was the only thread i was posting here on the avengers side of the hype....

caught the film last night in Bangladesh -- simply the best. Among the best superhero adaptations ever made (sheesh im repeating myself). THANK YOU WHEDON!

Why yes, yes she is!!

Scarlettess · 05-21-2012, 12:33 PM

I can/'t believe how close he looks to Hiddleston, very good job to Hot Toys, and yes I've been looking forward to this figure for a while now, love the inticate design on the armor, really makes his costume look superb.

Shame their so expensive though, otherwise I'd get them all!. (personally, I think Hot Toys would benefit from making them quite a bit cheaper, as alot more people would be willing to buy them, so theyd probably get more profit, as now i dont anyone outside of the internet who would pay that much for a figure/toy. ) I understand its mroe of a collecters thing to do though.

Figured you guys might enjoy this, from Tom's twitter - the goof *lol*:
