T'Chaka's Black Panther is Getting His Own Hot Toys Figure

Black Panther gave us a good look of some alternate Panther costumes, and it was nice enough that we got to see the outfit of T'Challa's predecessor King T'Chaka. What's cool is, T'Chaka's version of the Panther is getting its own Hot Toys figure, and he looks cool as hell.

Check it out:

Here's the official description:

Marvel Studio's highly anticipated blockbuster, Black Panther has smashed the box office records globally this year. T'Chaka, the former leader of the Kingdom of Wakanda has gained great respect by serving the technological advanced nation and protecting his people. When his son came to the Ancestral Plane to seek for guidance, T'Chaka replied with his sage wisdom and exclaimed his pride in his son.

Today, Hot Toys is excited to present T'Challa's departed father, T'Chaka in 1/6th scale collectible figure from Black Panther as a Toy Fair Exclusive item only available in selected markets!

The movie accurate collectible figure is specially crafted based on the image of young T'Chaka in his Black Panther suit in the movie featuring a newly developed helmeted head with highly detailed textures and gold trims, a muscular body, a meticulously tailored black and gold colored battle suit with extreme fine details and textures, a beautifully designed Wakandan pattern sash decorated with waistlet, a fine Kimoyo Beads bracelet and a Black Panther themed figure stand!

Reserve space for this honorable leader from the mythical African Nation to complete your Black Panther collection today.

I really like the look of the older Panther so much that I kind of wish that they gave us an action scene with him. That traditional sash is a very interesting design choice, and I like how he's not wearing a full suit—hence the pants.

Some may want this to come with an unmasked head, but I think that would be too much work for an exclusive figure. That head sculpt is pretty sweet though, and I bet it would look great in anyone's collection.

This Toy Fair 2018 exclusive is set to come out sometime later this year.
