1/6 Hot Toys - Iron Man 3: MMS197D02 Mark XLII Diecast Series Official Spec/Pics

[ApeManRyan]

Hopefully we get this in by the end of August beginning of September. Very pumped for this. Getting impatient.

 

[skizzoid]

I'm sure some enterprising Se7en customizer has some grand designs for that Pepper head.

Spoiler

What's in the box? What's in the box? Yeah, that scene freaked me out.

 

[DarthAlias]

I thought this was coming end of the month?

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Nobody knows when this is coming. YouTube reviewers and others who got the figure early, as well as Hong Kong buyers, have the first run, the ones with the balky shoulders.

Who knows how long it'll take Hot Toys to correct the issue to its satisfaction, so that it can finally ship to other markets and not have to deal with requests for exchanges?

It'll get here when it gets here.

He gets early samples to review, Basically SS pays him (in product etc..) and some other reviewers to worship and praise all the product they sell

I can't listen to Sean's voice. It's just awful.

Yeah true, but still he's very thorough in his reviews, been watching his channel for ages

Varies.. Vintage toys for example, are more likely to attract peeps old enough to have nostalgia for toys they owned as kids.. I think there was a thread awhile back with an age vote at the top which indicated a bias towards the twenties and thirties age group amongst those who responded but that is not necessarily an accurate gauge.
Welcome to the forum.

wow, great figures to start with

 

[franpincho]

I believe in Sean Long. A mans's man.

 

[GalaxySupreme]

Good to hear! Which revelation most excites you?

Wait so if Howard Chan is saying they revised the shoulder joint for later batches, does this mean early adopters like the clipperking fellow paid extra for a bad batch?? Unless its total BS and they didn't fix the joint at all....

nah I'd say they fixed it

 

[Snacks McGee]

Early adopter problems.

 

[The Skull]

I hate waiting but doing so for the US or international batch is usually a best practice, you normally get the revised version if there's issues and pay retail instead of the inflated Ebay prices. Good things come to those who wait

Plus you get the nifty shipper box too

 

[franpincho]

Yeah, I never understood the whole " I have to have it first" mentality. Pay more than anybody else just to have it on the for sale section a month after, at a loss, no less.

But whatever.
