SDCC 2013: Hot Toys at the Sideshow Collectibles Booth

I had been wanting to get to the Sideshow booth to check out the Hot Toys displays – it’s always one of the highlights of SDCC for me. I got my chance yesterday afternoon – and would have had an Instapics post up sooner, if it wasn’t for the massive congestion in the cellular network. All afternoon, a lot of folks in the San Diego Convention Center were having trouble making calls and sending texts, not to mention uploading pictures to the AFPRon Instagram account. 😀

Despite frustrations trying to keep connected, the Hot Toys showing did not disappoint. As you might expect, there was a ton of Avengers and Iron Man figures on display, but when you add in Robocop, G.I. JOE, Lone Ranger, and the growing DC licenses, there was something good for everybody.

SDCC 2013: Square Enix Play Arts Kai (Preview Night)

SDCC 2013: Play Imaginative Super Alloy (Preview Night)

Singapore’s Play Imaginative is poised to compete in the United States on a number of fronts with its high-end diecast collectibles. To fit into the crowded Marvel and DC licensed product markets, they’ve had to pick out niche scales that were available. For Marvel, they’ve got Iron Man in the 1/4 and 1/12 scale, while for DC, it’s 1/6. All look great, but for those of us hoping for one company to have Marvel and DC under one roof in compatible scales, we’ll keep waiting.
