Hot Toys' 1/6 Ant-Man from Marvel's Captain America: Civil War
While The Falcon and Hawkeye has been previously announced, what got my interest instead was the latest toy announcement of "ANT-MAN" by Hot Toys, for the "Captain America: Winter Soldier" feature film - where we get to have a closer look at the NEW suit "Scott Lang" will be wearing, in this third "Captain America" movie … and I haveta say "Why mess with the suit?"
Having loved the first movie version, this incarnation looks like someone "sweded" the character, especially with the home-made looking helmet! But sweet headsculpt-job tho :)
Regardless of my personal tastes, scroll down for more snaps of the product, and check in with your retailer(s) for availability and pricing.
HOT TOYS PRESS: "With the Marvel Cinematic Universe being divided over the rising concern of collateral damage caused by the Avengers in Captain America: Civil War, fans will finally witness the epic showdown between Captain America and Iron Man when the two heroes hold different views on the system of accountability to oversee the Avengers.
Today Hot Toys is excited to officially present the new 1/6th scale collectible figure of newest supporter of #TeamCap, the size-shifting hero, Ant-Man!"
HOT TOYS PRESS CONTINUED: "The movie-accurate Ant-Man collectible figure is specially crafted based on the film featuring a newly developed head sculpt with authentic likeness of Paul Rudd as Ant-Man in the movie, an interchangeable helmeted head with LED light-up function, meticulously tailored new Ant-Man suit, an Ant-Man miniature figure, and a Captain America: Civil War themed figure stand."
THE MEANING OF "SWEDED": "The summarized recreation of popular pop-culture films using limited budgets and a camcorder. The process is called sweding. Upon completion the film has been Sweded." (www.urbandictionary.com)
