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

I feel the same way. You don't know how much photoshop were done on these pictures. The ones they showed in ACGHK were badly proportion compared to these. I'm not convinced that they corrected those issues that quickly.

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.

yep- 1/6 Mk VII to me was a huge disappointment- soft details and not so great paint aps...these 1/4 pics (even airbrushed and made to look nicer) are not great at all.......

Sorry but these are expensive HT wanna-bes

I think they can get the proportion just right like they did to the mark 7. thinks to watch out for are: QC problem, less details compared to HT. the cheadle sculpt looks great IMO

Pics look good, QC seems to be the big question mark for the next PI release.

Pics look pretty cool but it looks like their "repulsor" hand still looks like a high five! I dont approve.

 

[Coffee Papa Bear]

Starboost looks good, wonder what are the pricing for these.

From what I know, their mark 7 can't hold repulsor pose as well as mark 7 because they only rely on wrist articulation to make the repulsor pose.

I thought they were listed as just over $600.

I think this is correct.
I believe they announced something like $630 or $650.

Next year there is going to be such a GLUT of IM3 stuff it will just destroy outside lines like these..HT will sell out their stuff but by then we'll have so much from a year-old film I just wonder if the interest will be over...

 

[Coffee Papa Bear]

I will probably be price out at $600. Maybe just get one I like the most.

 

[Samuraimasta]

Are they really serious about that torso on Warmachine 2?? Ahhhahaha it's like they took a sharpie and drew the lines instead of sculpting the armor plates. Also the color has way too much contrast in comparison to Hot Toy's which is just right.

It's been a while since I seen IM3, but was the grey War Machine even in the movie? I only recall seeing the Iron Patriot version...

No it's not in the movie but there's concept art of WM2.0 floating around:

That's the one I want!

double post

 

[nightsurf]

the proportion looks great. but with $600 price range, I'll wait until I get my hands on their mark 42 first before I put my next preorder.
I have the feeling, they will still have less details compared to hot toys, but still look good nonetheless.

They are really going for the quantity over quality huh?

I'd like to see them improve on the details of the projects already announced before taking on other characters/figures.
