If you're a Hot Toys collector, then you'll no doubt be aware that one of their biggest draws is how screen-accurate the figures are. That goes for their costumes and head sculpts, with the latter becoming increasingly realistic in recent years.
Some recent releases - such as the Scarlet Witch and Loki - are scarily accurate, and Doctor Octopus (based on his appearance in Spider-Man: No Way Home) has finally started arriving in stores after first being announced a couple of years ago.
At the time, plenty of fans found fault with the figure due to the fact it didn't really resemble Alfred Molina. The actor was digitally de-aged in the Marvel Studios blockbuster to better resemble his appearance in 2004's Spider-Man 2 but that still failed to explain Hot Toys' approach to the sinister villain.
While some updates have definitely been made since then, the final version is being widely ridiculed across platforms like Instagram and Reddit, with collectors roasting a take on Doc Ock many have deemed as being downright unrecognisable.
That seems a tad harsh as this is obviously Molina's Otto Octavius. However, there's definitely something not quite right here and a lot of people are vowing cancel their pre-orders rather than add such a "monstrosity" to their collections.
