Hot Toys could have went several directions with their second figure from The Amazing Spider-Man 2. The first being, of course, Spider-Man. They could have done Electro. Green Goblin. Some human character. But no, Hot Toys said “We’ll go straight for the huge, complicated armored guy.” And the results are amazing. Yeah, I went there.
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has swung into action and already started to hit theatres around the world!
There are a number of deadly foes out to catch the spider in the action packed movie, and Hot Toys is delighted to share with you today some looks of the Rhino battling our favorite wall-crawler! The prototype of the gigantic Rhino will be shown for the first time worldwide at the “Marvel Sapiens” Exhibition hosted at Hot Toys’ flagship store in Tokyo, Japan from tomorrow until May 11!
Fans in Japan remember to come check it out!
For me, this is the first time I’m seeing actual details of Rhino. I don’t dig for spoilers and info as I like to just go see a movie without any expectations or knowledge. Not to say I don’t see trailers and avoid action figure pictures, I just don’t Google all images and cast details and scripts. And I have to say…I dig this. The gut look was a surprise but it makes him even more rhino-like. Not the comic look but the actual animal. I’m okay with that. I’m okay with a lot of stuff that people hate though.
I wonder if it will come with a tattooed Paul Giamatti like Iron Monger had the Dude.
