    I don’t mind that it’s basically a giant action figure but at least flock it for accuracy.. that would of made it worth closer to $400 for me. Yes we can modify it but it’s just a turn off for the price tag. Thanks for the thorough review. I think the diehard fans will buy it. Most might pass on this. I wish the mouth could open. The collar is my favorite part. Sculpt is 10/10.

      Hey man, thanks for watching! I feel your comment is pretty level headed and reasonable and seems you pretty much match how I feel. Yah, I too wish it was flocked-the only reason I give it a slight benefit of the doubt though is that I have heard behind the scenes that it was considered and was just not working out the way they hoped. I mean to me that doesn't make too much sense since it seems like a simple enough thing to do, but hey I'm not a toy maker and I'm not there behind the scenes so it's hard for me to get mad and point fingers about it ya know?
      I also don't know how they came to that very high price point, but hey again, I don't know the behind the scenes of it all. From my experience and limited knowledge, this seems more like a $150-$200 item, but I'm not in the biz so I'm not sure all the factors that contribute to the final price.
      And you're right, diehard collectors will get this and that's why it's hard for me to speak for others and say if it's worth it or not cause it's worth it to some and not to others. It just depends what you're looking for. If you're looking for a cool prop display piece as a fan of Sox/Lightyear, this does the trick. If you're looking for something 100% movie accurate and with robotics, then this is will be disappointing. That's why I said as long as you know what you're getting here and you wanna pay the $400, than go for it-it must be worth it to that person.
      And agreed, the sculpt itself is 10/10. I had no complaints there at all like I said so I'm glad you agree! The collar and tag are also perfection, absolutely. There are some amazing elements here, no doubt. Again, like I said, for what it's trying to be (really a shelf display piece for collectors), it succeeds so much. Definitely pros and cons, but I'm mostly very positive about it.

    I just ordered it today after watching your review. I am doing the payment plans as I do feel $400 was a tough pill to swallow. I honestly would've been more comfortable had it been priced at $295 like their other Supersize figures. But at $400 it should've had flocking. Their Snoopy has felted ears at the very least.

    @VVM2024 2 года назад +1

    I am a huge Pixar Collector, particularly Toy Story and Cars, but what is that price ? Are they seriously asking 400$ for this ? The sculpt is great and it's probably been ripped straight from Pixar digital data, but, besides the quality material and the realistic collar, it looks like a Mattel Figure worth 15$. It's not even Movie Accurate and it doesn't move, for the price they should've AT LEAST flocked him. I am never that negative but wow that annoys me. It's 100$ less than freaking medicom Woody !
    If he was a real functioning little robot, like what Sphero does with R2D2 or McQueen, any other company that sells fun little robots, I would totally understand the 400$ but seeing what it actually is, it's not cool like that.
    I'm sure we're gonna have better Moving Sox Robots for 90$ this christmas, I know we are.

    • @DanthePixarFan
      @DanthePixarFan  2 года назад

      Yup I get it! It seems like there’s a general overwhelming consensus in the comments here that $400 is just wayyy beyond what fans are willing to pay for this- even diehards. I can totally see this being $150-$200 as like a limited con exclusive, but hey I’m not there behind the scenes so I have no idea how they arrived at the $400 price point. I’d be curious to learn though! But yes I agree, if no electronics they should have at least flocked him. From what I understand it was considered but dropped ultimately for whatever reason.
      But also to be fair, I feel ultimately Woody from Medicom is also WAY too pricey for what that is too. That thing should be like $100. No working pullstring or voice either. Several things that make him not movie accurate.
      But yah anyway, not sure what the $400 is about, but maybe they will realize they went too high with the price and drop it some? It’s also not marketed as a limited edition item so I’m wondering how many were made?

    In the movie Sox seems to basically be a robot plushie, complete with soft, furry cloth over his body. So to make it accurate, as it's not flocking, it would need actual plush cloth material. Honestly it looks good but nowhere near $400 good. For that price you would be better off just getting the Buzz hot toy. I can't understand how they arrived at such insane price point for what is a hollow plastic figure with a few paint apps. I would, however, pay $400 for an actual robotic Sox though. He's just so cute!

    • @DanthePixarFan
      @DanthePixarFan  2 года назад +1

      To me it seems the Sox in the film isn’t an actual soft plushie. His body seems hard and robotic with a fuzzy fabric covering (which is essentially what being flocked is). That’s just how I see it though 🤷🏻‍♂️😊 And I agree- I can understand how they arrived at the price point either, but I’m not in the biz. I wish I could chat with someone there to find out exactly how they came to justify $400 as the final retail price. It is pretty dang high for sure.
