Wow, Threezero Fallout 4 T51 totally out of left field.

And it's a Thinkgeek exclusive? and In-stock no less??

Did we hear anything at all about this before it just randomly appeared?

It has already begun.

Anyway, figure looks great. Wish they'd switch it up and do female heads for other power armor releases though, or at least let us buy an alternate female head separately.

Buddy got in a fight in the lobby and we got booted out at 2 in the morning.
The worst part is, I was just up in the room sleeping. I'm waiting for my share of the room money back.

There's a ThinkGeek store in our mall, I wonder if they would carry these. I'd like to see them in person before I drop that kind of cash. Very, very tempting. I don't know which armor I would prefer though.

So they had them there in person for sale? They must have been producing these under the radar.
I'd be a little angry if I thought stealth production on this thing for Thinkgeek is why the rest of us got our paid T60 preorders delayed.

So far we've got 3 models that come with the same male head, and 2 models that come with the female head in different hair colors.

I bought the Atom Cats T-60 but I will never be able to afford more than maybe 1 more of these, and I'm holding out for the X-01, and additionally hoping it gets a male head as well so I have one of each.

Ain't a think wrong with that.

I wonder about those custom 1/6 sculpted heads you see on ebay, if you could finagle one of them on the neck stump. Not just because I'd like to put Tony Stark's head on it or anything.

Not really. In Fallout 1 and 2 the Power Armor looks like armor, not a robot. They were also more reflective of the game's setting, by mixing 50's sci-fi aesthetic with futurism. Fallout 3 and 4's armor suffers from trying to make the old designs "cooler" and more realistic, which is how you get the weird disproportional legs in >>6236430

Oddly enough, I'd say the Fallout 4 style actually looks more like Fallout 1 in the aspect it's a dude in a large suit of armor.

That figure looks more like the Fallout 3 power armor which feels way too form fitting for the setting of the game and the idea of power armor.

They need to make cheaper versions of these fucking things.

>14.5 inches tall is too damn big
>make them around 6-8 inches tall instead

>remove the whole gimmick where the guy can come out of the armor
>make it just a poseable set of armor with a removable helmet, and maybe some heads/hands you can swap out for different poses and weapons

BAM. Its no longer $375, its now $50-$80, and people can buy multiple sets to get all the armors and limited editions for a collection.

Id loooove to get a T-51 set, T-60 Atom Cat, and a possible Enclave armor set, but no fucking way Im spending $1000.

I'm kinda hoping they release some characters WITHOUT power armor, but at the same scale, kinda like how they sell the stands extra. Vault Suited bodies for the heads would be nice.
If they made other Fallout 3/4 characters, I'd kill for a 1/6 Valentine or Piper, or shit, a Codsworth.

Take this with a grain of salt, since I don't own this figure, but ThreeZero and ThreeA typically use the same manufacturing processes, and ThreeA typically uses TrueType bodies. So if this all holds true for this figure, you should be able to use any Hot Toys-compatible head.

You are basically talking about the Funko except it doesn't have a removable helmet or swappable hands.

If you're asking for something of ThreeZero quality but 6-8" tall, you've gotta be fucking kidding me at that price. No way that would cost $50-80. Basic ThreeA Action Portable figures cost like $50-60 already, and that's using generic bucks. A figure like this would require a 100% original sculpt (and a very intricate one, at that) and entirely new joint engineering. You'd be looking at like $150 easy, maybe even more.

They don't charge that price because it costs that much to manufacture.

The high price is for exclusivity, it's the same with designer clothes.

They don't have to charge that much, it's a form of class warfare.

Holy shit you're dumb.

The price is high because they know enough people will pay it to justify it.

Frankly if they charged $100 poorfags would still say it's too much.
