1/2 Scale Iron Patriot by Imaginarium

[HeubertMichael]

I think this looks really great, especially given that it's 60% cheaper than most Legendary Scale figures offered by SSC. It's licensed too while being at the same price point as unlicensed ones that are usually less accurate and/or needs a lot of work on the sculpting. Even cheaper I guess, as I have seen a lot of unlicensed ones offered for $1000.

EDIT: I just checked on Animarket and now I feel bad for missing out on this one. They offered free shipping to my country!

Despite now being sold out, I received an email from Imaginarium a few weeks back stating that they due to their local laws of distribution, they couldn't ship to Europe... shame as they making the Iron Man Heartbreaker in 1/2 scale also!!! And that one looks amazing!

Hi
I am helping an European friend to get this piece to ship to his country as well. Currently has some arrangement with IA. Anyone who interest can PM me. I try to do something. It is not confirmed yet, will update later.

Price: USD 1200
Shipping: FedEx - Waiting for measurement from IA (insurance is optional)
NRD: USD 200

I will check the statue on behalf before ship to ensure no major defeats (statue always come with minor painting and lining issue).

Thank you

Finally, I have a visit to IA showroom in Kuala Lumpur last night, and seen the IP 1/2 in real. Been told they are using 3D printer technology to build the prototype, and then mold it. Therefore, this piece is the 2nd piece they produced for display purpose. Further improvement is in progress. They have their own factory in China, and QC controlled by boss instead of sub the job to other factory

Below are the photos taken.

Good
- The painting is good, it look gloss like metal. Just minor lining and partition painting issue found.
- The upper body armor look awesome. It seem to have layers just like real armor especially on chest plate, and shoulder.
- The price is quite competitive.
- The base is nice, and wide

Further improvement can be suggested
- Improve the layering effect on torso and legs portion, arm, and leg. now it seem one piece off.
- The body look a bit thinner. But IA said they are using the same 3D file provided by Marvel as legacy effect is using
- Better lining and partition painting. However, I feel it look better than SS Iron man 1/4.

Enjoy.

Is the gun able to change positions? In early photos it is pointing up at the sky and here it's aimed dead ahead.

Hi
AFAIK, the gun can change position and rotated

Been told comic version of iron man might be in future. IA already get the license of 1/1 Iron man (not sure which armor), but still under planning stage.

The price is about USD 1200. The price is so competitive might cause by shipping fee as well. IA setup up their own factory in China, they ship product out straight from China. Instead, SS will ship from China to US, then only redistributed out (according to some info obtained from China factory). However, ship so huge item from China is very costly as well. It might be more than USD 1200 (but IA doesn't have license for Europe and US region, may be only thru retailer in Asia)

Another reason could be, IA is new company, so if they offer same price as SS, collector might prefer SS.

The material is fibreglass, is that the same as Rhino?
