2019 Alita: Battle Angel

[RavenEye]

I have such a backlog of shit I need to get to.

Yeah same here, took me nearly a year to see this film.

When I get off work I just don't want to do anything really. The wife has wanted to see this ever since it came out.

The HT figure alone makes me want to watch it.

 

[RavenEye]

Hell after seeing the movie, I actually wouldn't mind to buy some merch.

 

[Darth Maul]

I just want a Neca figure. Or something from Figuarts. Maybe even Mafex.

Exactly something you pose well without worrying about pleather peeling in under a year...

It looks like the outfit is just an accessory, so the figure won't come with that thing on. I'm glad because I might never use it, that body has more articulation than any other HT figure before and I'll make good use of it

The complete lack of figures from all the usual companies is extremely irritating. Nothing from Mezco, NECA, SHF, Mafex, Iron Studios, Kotobukiya, etc...

There is the Prime 1, Hot Toys, Queen Studios bust, and a few Funko Pops. There are supposedly two 1/12 scale Alitas in the works by a company called Mech Fans, or something thereabouts, but it's been months and they still haven't shown a painted protoype.

Imagine how cool a big Grewishka from NECA would be, complete with wired grind cutters.

Those companies probably think since the movie didn't do so well, there isn't a demand for any merchandise. Which isn't true because I think most people who collect this stuff do so based on design and/or if they personally like the character(s). Not if the source was a box office smash or bomb.

 

[Jotaro Something]

I didn't know this was real

Yeah super stoked about it. 1 year later and I still absolutely love the movie!

 

[DEVIL_666]

With that artwork it's guaranteed to bomb.

Did you get anything else from the movie recently? there's a bunch of great limited editions around I haven't really decided which to get yet, or how many.

No haven't grabbed anything lately other than the art book and Ido journal from a while ago.
