I would say looks arent everything but it sounds like she didnt exactly have a winning personality either.... no offense intended

I guess it was just a case of not knowing the real person until you live with them..., we managed 3 years though & it wasn't all bad. Anyway back to the topic..., having not bought any of Hot Toys bigger figures before, I was wondering is this remote control thing something they do much of (does anyone know)? I think I'd go a bit crazy with the remote control for a few days if I could turn all of the lights on with just the push of a button. lol

I think thats usually a DIY thing, but I'm not 100% sure. Honestly I don't see the problem with the batteries, but I like tinkering with things so I don't mind having to keep messing with batteries and screws etc

I'm always worried about the acid leaking out of the batteries BUT I do love the light up features all the same.

Messing with batteries is not the problem. Activating the lights is. Having to pull figures out and pop off panels to turn lights on and off is cumbersome and unnecessary. Having to do this for multiple figures in a display causes me to abandon the light features all together. Remotes would be great.. Eventually a universal remote necessary as you will have dozens of remotes to manage.

Sounds good to me, I'd love to switch on all the suits via remote..., I'd be far more likely to use the light up features then too.

That would be amazing but unfortunately hot toys would then add another $30 for each figure for that option

Well I'd say it's a small price to pay but I doubt the extra cost would go down well with most collectors. :/

I removed all my batteries just because it is such a pain to turn them all on.

there seems to be some very slight inaccuracies in the colour scheme on some parts; hopefully it comes out well in the final product. i am looking to keep only 1 iron man, this 1/4 scale mark 43 could be it!

ah yeah but never trust magazine covers, heavy photoshop

Still its probably movie accurate to some degree, and I fully expect HT to fix any inaccuracy before release, the prototype shown is just that, a prototype

Yeah, it's a virtual certainty that this will come with a Tony headsculpt, maybe even an unhelmeted one.

This would seal the deal for me as all of the recent Iron Men and 3 of the 4 I plan on owning (have silver Centrion the the Mark III and 43) have open faceplate heads. Really hoping for the 43 and Cap to have helmetless sculpts but not likley to happen.

I started collecting 1/6 figures this summer, after buying some 1/10 Kotobukiya figures, so I'm not leaving 1/6. My goal is to have all the New52 Justice League and Avengers in 1/10 format, my favorite Dc and Marvel characters in 1/6 (Batman, Iron Man, Wolverine, The Joker, Catwoman, Spiderman) and now this figure totally makes me want my two favorite characters at all in 1/4 (Batman and Iron Man). I am a comics reader, so I focus my collection in comics heroes/villains.

I missed the 1/4 DKR figure... so my chance for that, if I pick this up, will be if BatFleck is good.

this figure is more and more tempting every day

This ^ may have to change some purchase plans as well as how I aim to display... problem is cutting AoU down as I need/want a Cap and yhe new Cap looks amazing as does Hawkeye... ah well will wait to see the pricing with baited breath and hope they dont sell out quick (unlikely lol)

I really don't see any reason it shouldn't come with a remote. HT has already released one product with the feature (TDK armory), and solicited two more (TDKR "The Bat," and TDKR Batsignal), so, we know that they're entirely capable of it.

It'd be great if they did it, I'm not sure why but it makes it more appealing to me..., well I'm pretty sure I do know why, the novelty factor would be pretty cool & I'd be far more likely to use the light up feature on a regular basis.

Out of curiosity, what happened to the noob call Joyous(?) who posted a day or two ago about how people are bad for wanting this? Saw that some posts were removed. I predicted he would be gone early. Was I right?

Not to mention all of the insults thrown left and right. Joyous is no longer among us. At least for now.

I really like the 1/4 scale figures. Have Batman and the endo, and PO Boba Fett. Love the detail. This is a def buy.
