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

[FullMetalHippie]

Oh schnep, that SSC twitter contest I won back in May for a 1/6 Mk 42, I emailed them last week about it since it was forgotten and they had one shipped out right away, turned out to be the Die Cast version and not the Power Pose!

Wow, nice score brother! That's quite the upgrade if it was meant to be a power pose. Do you have one already or will this be your first die cast? This is such a standout piece that I had to give it it's own Lighthouse case. Congrats.

Thanks, mate! I preordered it around last year when they offered some deals when the movie was about to release so now I have 2. I'm going to either flip it to help pay for some other items or gift it to someone.

Sell it man, the money will help if you plan on buying AoU figures, unless you want to give it to someone special

If I was you I'd keep it, keep one in storage and do extreme poses with the other one

Congrats on the sweet score, my man!

You know, er, you could always give your old DC 42 to someone who, cough, doesn't have one, cough.

got the shipping notice for mine over the weekend, looking forward to seeing how it looks in hand.

If you're gonna get a figure of Guy Pearce, get if from The Rover. He's a complete badass from start to finish.

I am hopping Hot Toys includes her head in Mark 42 helmet as VIP / Exclusive gift when they release her...

I was totally shocked, but my Mark 42 finally showed up today after 41 days in the mail (sent EMS, which normally takes 5 to 7 days to arrive). He came with a $65 customs bill but at least I didn't get one with a defect (as far as I can tell). Gosh, I've never been so stressed over a figure before, but looking at how amazing he is, I'm so happy I finally managed to add him to my collection.

Glad to hear that, despite the long, circuitous route it took, it all worked out for you! Congrats!

Ugh man thats such a long wait

I think you were very lucky, but this figure is totally worth it

 

[Shawpaw]

Picked this guy up today for $250...

Really good fig. Not sure if I will end up keeping it for a while but I couldn't pass it up for a straight $250 with no tax or shipping.

 

[subzro]

Finally got my pepper helmet today. Very happy with it, i doubt HT could do much better with the HS.

Here's some pics I took of the Mark 42 today. Such an awesome piece. Just quality and I love posing him! Enjoy!

[YankeesFanboy]

Congrats on the pickup, Ryan! Killer pics!

i dont own a single Iron Man but i would love to have one.

in my country i cant get im for under 370$. is he worth it or do you think that the price will get down after it is released everywhere?

even the ebay sellers from China dont sell him under 400 dollars at the moment, shipping included.

 

[Henry Morgan*]

I don't think the price will drop on this one...

If I were to pay + $300 on a figure that'd be the Mark XLII, it is the best suit ever



Great pics Ryan!

 

[ApeManRyan]

Thanks all!

Impossible to say, man, stock could be gone six months from now, it could still be available a year from now. I'd keep my eyes peeled for a coupon or promotion from Sideshow, if it's not too costly in your country.

There is no better articulated IM figure at the moment, if that's your thing. You also could wait for the AoU IM if you prefer that paint scheme instead.

If you guys are on the fence for this guy I say pick him up. He's worth every penny and I love mine. It was great taking some quality pictures of him last night. Had him for a couple of months and it was great taking him out of the case and having a photo shoot.
