Amazing shot my friend and I would be an owner of this Mark L too if it wasn't for HT's rush job on the abdomen/thigh section.

HT was certainly able to accomplish it in the past...look at this! The leg/thigh joints are virtually seamless! And no jarring thigh-high boot look.

Honestly the leg gaps don't really bother me that much. The torso is already far less streamlined than it was in the movie (not to mention the armor being a brighter red), so this is just one more small inaccuracy to have to live with. And the overall figure is so gorgeous that it easily makes up for it.

Yo gmoney, you might have to get used to them thighs if HT’s doesn’t release an EG Thor

I mean, I'll gladly deal with the thighs and ab cut if it doesn't cost me a pretty penny.

Thanks for picking up the tab. Honestly, more forum members should strive to be like you! You're so generous blinguskahn!

It shouldn't be different, it's a reissue of the same figure.

It shouldn't... but sometimes it is.

Wishful thinking...I doubt HT will correct any of the issues people have been vocal about.

What? Who said that? Who's wishing?

I was wondering if the reissue/2nd batch will have the exact same beautiful red color, or if it will be slightly different... as sometimes it is between several months.

There are some really nice aspects to this figure and I don't doubt it looks stunning in hand. However, in almost every photo I've seen of this guy, my eyes are always drawn toward that midsection...



The thigh gaps and the awkward looking transition from abs to upper torso are the deal breaker for me.

You don't like the cozy 'loafer' style feet he has? Looks comfy.

I am 100% with you on this one. I wanted this figure...but those blatant cuts/seams are just too distracting for me.

That's fine I guess...save $400+. Hey, as long as there are collectors happy and content, that's all that really matters.

I have no idea what you people want for a toy that replicates a seamless nanobot body suit. You don't want cuts? Buy a statue. It's like the opposite of the people who want a diecast Iron Spider suit. Do you want an Iron Spider like suit for the Mk 50?

 

[Wor-Gar]

Oh don't pay any attention -- they'll both cave and end up getting it. And rally about how great it is in hand too.

Please refer to this image I posted earlier of an older HT IM with no boot legs. They've done it before and they surely could have done it for Mark L if they really wanted to. No excuses.

But ALL your figures in the background have obvious 'boot leg'.

Sorry, that's not my photo.

But if you're gonna refer to the figures in the background that are based on ROBOTS and not organic/fluid nanotech that had no seams/cuts...then yeah, those figures in the background should have boot legs!

Pretty sure I won't be backtracking on this one. But hey, never say never...

And I already own 3 which could be cut down to 2 if HT’s doesn’t put an Endgame Thor up for PO by May 2020.

I'm counting on it!
