Sort of how I’ve been feeling with recent POs that have been coming in. I’ve been reselling them almost immediately

Since last year I've dialed right back, the only remaining thing on order is my HTs Batman DKR set, maybe I'm on the way out but I remember being so excited for these, I'll keep the batman cause I don't have a perfect batman yet, but this iron man set is just gratuitous. I did list it but if it doesn't sell them I'll keep it, just don't know where I'll display it yet

That's how I feel about my Mark III Red & Chrome that just arrived. I had picked up the similar Mark VII, so now I don't even want to open this one up. Sigh.
Yea, I'm thinking I'm slowly on the way out of 1/6 as well. Statues have been catching my eyes more over the last year. I have the same thoughts as you with your Iron man as I do with my listed DX Vader and Padme. If they sell, cool; if not, I guess I'll keep them.
They're nice, shiney and sparkly when they go up for order, but seems like they lose their luster when they arrive.
Finally got this out of the box & set it up. Not the most secure figure support - I ended up using some grey duct tape to keep it in place. Excuse the crappy phone pic.

Finally shipped from PopCultcha. Looking forward to this. Loved the first one and regret selling it

I freaking love the more satin finish on the new HT Mark VI 2.0, but I miss the helmet reveal head, so I took the 1.0 head and gave it a coat of semi gloss to knock back the high shine and match the 2.0. It's not a 100% match, the red is a touch darker, and the finish isn't as satin smooth, but close enough for the naked eye. For those interested, I used Mr Superclear Semi Gloss rattle can topcoat. This will have to do for now, hopefully they release a Mark IV soon with a reveal head in the new satin finish red they're using.

Got it into my Sixth55 no trouble, definitely a relief though, such an amazing centerpiece for a display
