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

[MinniNuggins777]

The left shoulder joint(the one that pulls out of the torso) was stuck and wouldn't move forward.

Ahhh, OK.... The very same joint on mine was SUPER loose. Glad the ordeal is over. Now I can obsess over something else.

I also received my replacement torso. Problem solved

Is replacing the torso hard? I have a replacement coming in

I assume all you do is pop off the head, arms n legs and put them onto the new one...

Not at all, the arms, legs, and head all pop off/back on pretty easily from the ball joints/sockets. One thing I would advise is that you extend the hip section first before attempting to remove/attach the legs.

Extending the hip section? Also, my chest plate was damaged. Was that part of the torso ?

The ball joints that the legs attach to can be lowered by pressing the button on the "butt." That's the best way I can explain it. And yes, my replacement came with the clean chest plate.

Thanks for the help!

No problem

My MK42 arrived today... omg it's awesome ! everything came perfect

 

[ApeManRyan]

Received my replacement head in and everything is good. Still Sideshow hasn't gotten back to me about my Silver Centurion and continue to ignore me. Might as well just give up.

That's rough, I hope everything works out for you.

Replacement arm shipped last night, should be getting it on Thursday. Been wanting a whole Mark 42 for a while now

 

[chutterbox]

just got mine today. such an awesome piece lots of thoughts went into making it very posable. btw my pull out shoulder can only articulate forward, is that how it should be?

Any tips for getting the power pose for this? Having trouble with it than with IP.

What do u mean? Like the buying the PPS fig of the 42?

 

[dw316]

Sorry mate, I meant the kneeling power pose**

Ohhhh haha got it.

I would help you, like with IP, but right now my 42 is missing his right arm

I couldn't tell you if it was different than IP even if u brought me onset for one of the movies your working on

 

[dw316]

Jeepers, the arm broke off? That sucks, hopefully the replacement gets to you alright. I got to play around with it briefly, but it seems more limited in movement than the IP but I've seen pictures where they get the same pose, so I'm trying to figure out what I could be doing wrong. I do know his elbow joints feel a bit looser than IP as well.

Actually just picked it up and just fell off didnt even touch the arm, came sky diving down

Its all good my replacement should be here tomorrow.

And i would imagine it would be similar, they both have that crotch swing thing

Is it brand-new? Joints may just need some breaking-in.
