That was fast, I'm not too familiar with base bodies Hot Toys has but I might speculate they had this kid body type already and put on some Deadpool clothes on it.

I have no idea why Hasbro wouldn't have had access to it. And yeah, Hot Toys had a limited release of the DP3 figure come out already, ZD Toys are already on shelves, Funkos are already on shelves. How did the DP3 wave wait until the week the movie came out to even be shown, and then it was only a preorder for a December release. Which then proceeded to sell out almost everywhere. The entire situation with Hasbro and this movie just feels like a huge slap in the face.
Yup exactly, Hasbro shouldn't be the last in the know with the ability to produce figures they are the biggest Marvel figure selling company, you'd think they'd be first, but other companies are beating them to the punch, and Yeah a lot of the characters were not even spoilers like Cassandra, Sabretooth, Pyro.. all in the trailers and were not hush hush, sure a bunch of characters were spoilers, but now that the movie has been out seems like they could have released figures since a quick search on the internet prior to the movie would have revealed them, so Hasbro should have been aware and looped in ready to release figures.

Even smaller companies like ZD Toys have DeadpoolxWolverine figures out, You gotta strike while the Iron Is Hot. But whatever all of the Spider-Man NWH stuff came out like almost 2 years after the film and it still sold like hot cakes, so I guess Hasbro is just hoping for that.

No it's more the case that Hasbro got earlier concept are and Hot Toys got later works. Plus, there is the fact that this movie was being shift constantly. AND lets fact it, for the mosy part hot toys is the same base bodies with new clothes.
