Avatar toys

[Lord_Zed]

Kup got me the smaller size Colonel Quaritch for Xmas (my favourte Avatar character/caricature), unfortunately we couldn't find a working webcam to test the Itag. The Itag is itself just a piece of plastic, it must be all in the software.

As for the Colonel figure himself, he's not too bad. Samller than a modern GI Joe, with a little less articulation. He does have ankle joints though, giving him 2 more points of articulation than the 80's Joes. Sculpt is ok, but his singlet is just painted on and looks a bit cheap, he also has common action figure QC paint issues. Accsesories are limited as he come only with a pistol.

He's ok but he has a bit of a movie cash in feel to him, I couldn't really reccomend, as there are better figures out there. Hopefully the larger figures are better for those who really want Avatar toys.

Have there been any new sightings yet? I've been looking around and I still haven't found any.

I saw some in Big W the other day...and I couldn't believe the price...


I nearly fell over and squashed some kid who was looking at the
Astro Boy toys.

Buuuut, it's still no cooler than APU in Matrix IMO. I mean, the design, not only the toys.

I disagree. If I had to go head to head with Na'vi warriors I'd rather be riding in an AMP for two main reasons:
1: Enclosed cockpit. Archers = snipers.
2: All those dangling cables on the APU would be a seriously bad liability in close quarter combat, something else which the Na'vi excel at.

That does not sound good. What were the prices like?

Ok not really a toy but a paper model of the wicked looking scorpion.

wait are you joking or being serious? $14 to $15 for those big mechs that's cheap as has any one seen one in sydney or near abouts (I ask because there is no way in hell we are going to get them in penrith).

Mecha?... I wish! No, I'm talking about the price of the small 'G.I. Joe sized' character figures... they're the ones that are $15. The Avatar Movie Masters are about $30 (which is $10 more expensive then the Dark Knight ones were!)

The Mecha (afaik) hasn't been released in Australia, but I would assume (based on the prices so far) they would be at least $50 or more if they ever get here.

Awesome! I love the designs of the vehicles in this movie! That looks wicked!
