Back in June, I posted about a 1/9 scale “Hulkbuster” toy (from “Avengers: Age of Ultron”) that cost a whopping $840. Now comes word of a 1/6 scale Hulkbuster (50% bigger than the earlier Hulkbuster), which would be 21 inches tall. It’s cheap at a low, low $825; less than the earlier one because this one is plastic while the 1/9 version is diecast.
It’s available HERE.
I shudder to imagine how much of a nuisance I would have made of myself to my parents had this sort of thing been available when I was a kid (and were I a Marvel fan). I do wonder what it says about modern society that there really is a market for dolls/action figures that cost a months mortgage… how many of these are destined to become the toys of actual children as opposed to toys for adults… or destined to be just the collectors items of adults, never to be opened until after the inevitable estate sale?
