Virtual Toys, AKA VTS, does not have the licence to be making toys based on Mad Max, but their “Wasteland Ranger” figure sure looks like Tom Hardy. They have also made bootleg toys based on everything from The Division (“Darkzone Agent”) to Dredd (“Epoch Cop”).
See also: their “Agent Hunter” bears a damn fine likeness to Mission Impossible‘s Tom Cruise. I know companies like Hot Toys do a fine (and legal) job with their pop culture tie-ins, but that doesn’t stop these from being awesome in their own loosey-goosey way as well.
Below you’ll find shots of all the toys I mentioned above, along with some based on Watch Dogs (“Nightmare Stalker”) and Lollipop Chainsaw (“Chainsaw Girl”). If you want to buy some, there are online importers who stock VTS’ stuff.

Those are dope
That’s … actually pretty darn awesome. Dat Tom Cruise likeness …
Umm…*lifts jaw off table*
It pisses me off some companies charge an arm and a leg and have half this detail.
The facial details are incredible. Why can’t the licensed companies do as good as that?
It’s weird that you say they produce toys, and then only show these hi-def renders /s
