1/4 Scale Super Alloy Iron Man 3 Figures from Play Imaginative

Plus 5 heads

It seems from the proto pics we're seeing of the 1/4 Mk.42, the gap has improved significantly.

STGCC is August 31 to September 1.
I hope we see more improvements with all the 1/4 Iron Man figures.
I'm looking to get out of 1/6.

yes, but like you said before, the gap was pretty annoying. I believe they can close the gap eventually.

Isn't it supposed to come with interchangable battle damage pieces? The 1/4 one I think.

yes it is

Nice head sculpt.

 

[Takaboi]

Don Cheadle looks spot on besides the huge nostrils...
Tony's BD face looks too fake
And my god Peppers face is so SMOOTH!!

 

[DarthAlias]

They can sculpt but can't paint! These deserve the translucent type acrylics.

 

[wolverine2031]

No hall of armour for 1/4 then ; (

 

[Grumpy Bear]

And my god Peppers face is so SMOOTH!!

Are you kidding? A woman looks to smooth?!? Do you like a woman like bruce willis?

That's the best Pepper painted sculpt I've seen

Any1 interested in just the hall of armour and remote that comes with the 1/6? Don't think I will display the mark vii in it and will probably end up sitting in the box!

I thought pepper was too smooth looking at first glance, I think the paint is ok now. just those eyes and eyebrows that make it look like a barbie

Those are NICE sculpts- they look like the actors to me- they are new to this game so paint aps can't come close to HT...so you gotta decide if you can settle for this quality I guess if you want the figures

There's a difference in meaning too smooth and SO smooth.
I think you misread

 

[Grumpy Bear]

Yo, my fall, but funny.

Yeah, it looks like (with any figure really) there's a compromise to be made.

You can have the armors at 1/4 and in diecast, but paint app isn't as good as it can be. At the prices they're asking, these should be the definitive version of the armors.

Too bad, really. I might have to pass all together.

^ the paint on the armor looks great Imo.
the problem is they can't paint headsculpt as good as ht nor enterbay. But I'll reserve my opinion until I see the final product

No doubt.
I'm still hoping these turn out great. Need to get armors larger than 1/6.

Wow 1/4 scale and they still look less detailed than Hot Toys, not impressed with them other than the light up feature with Gemini's helmet design. War Machines fists =

 

[Centurion]

These actually look decent. More details than the first prototype pics they showed. That Cheadle sculpt is awesome!

I'm still not convinced, however, and in-hand pics will help to make the final decision. After all, I wasn't that impressed with their 1/6 Mk. 42 release.
