So back in January, I made some “predictions” about the year to come in 1/6 scale toys. I’ve been disappointed more didn’t come true, but am glad that I wasn’t entirely accurate about diminished offerings in 1/6. If anything, there seems to be more variety now than there was last year (though I *DO* think, there are LESS products being released overall).
HOWEVER… (drum roll) I was actually right about something, because I believed in Hot Toys ability to deliver what they said they were going to deliver…and soon, they will! I had thought after they released the Machiko Predator figure we might see some True Type female bodies carded. It made even more sense after they announced the ERT figure. My original prediction:
2) Carded Hot Toys female body – I posted a question that was answered by Hot Toys in December 2008:
IOT: Are there plans to release a carded version of the female body similar to the True Type 38 nudes?
HT: Oh yes, we know many fans are expecting it on forums, please stay tuned in 2009.
It appears they will be out before the end of 2009.
As for the rest of my predictions…well, the year isn’t over just yet. :)
