Here is the custom I finished today. I put a picture of the original next to the first picture to show the weird yellow gold that is not movie accurate. I repainted both yellow and red before the actual weathering could begin

Killer pics and poses McHaley and that BD job is out of control!!

My right bicep plate is super stubborn. I didn't hit it with heat yet but it was pretty impossible getting it off to swap for the BD one

 

[Darth Fok]

I have no regrets buying this figure it looks great. If I had the money I'd also get the mark 43, but since it's only a repaint I'll pass.

Great shots JazzInc! The weathering looks fantastic.

Wow that looks incredible! I'm on the look out for a 42 at the moment. Thought I'd see some at decent prices now seein as people are ditchin this for the 43. Also making sure I grab one from the second batch which I believe have the improved shoulder joints.

Awesome work! JazzInc

Wonderful weathering indeed, truly outstanding work!


Hope you like if I share some pictures I took just a couple of weeks after getting this figure, time ago now. I'm selling it to get the 1/4 scale one, but each time I see it I'm not so sure

The desk is a custom one, made by myself, just to put the extra pieces of this figure

Fantastico, Salvatore!

I wish we would have gotten a full battle damaged version of this figure rather than just some interchangeable parts for the upper body. Still like the figure a lot but I've never been fully satisfied with the battle damaged look. I don't have the guts to do a custom like on the previous page to my figure either.

Wanting to get myself a 42 but don't wanna end up with one that has faulty shoulders, how common was this problem?

Outstanding photos

After the initial release in Hong Kong it was pretty much a non-issue. All the ones distributed by Sideshow had the fixed shoulders if I recall correctly.

I agree, haven't had any issues with mine. Still love the look of this figure. I'm going to have to space my Iron man purchases out since HT is releasing the variances by the truck load.

Non issue as others said. Even before it was fixed it wasn't a big issue. They over engineered it basically. They used two washers in the shoulder. The fix was removing one. It caused the shoulder to be stiff so people would use to much force to move it, that caused the issues. So even if you got one of the early ones just don't over torque it.

Outside of the Hong Kong release though they where all fixed. So north and South America, Europe australia all had fixed ones. I wouldn't stress it.

Better late than never. Really glad I changed my mind and went for this

 

[Pro Design]

nice display!

My fairly crappy attempt at a Pepper suit up pose after receiving my Pepper HS today.

If anyone has a better idea to suspend the parts other than taping them to the detolf door, please tell me! lol

P.S. Oh and my newly finished Titan Hero Hulkbuster all painted up

Awesome setup! In the first picture, I was impressed you managed to suspend everything without any stands... and then I started looking closer and saw the tape. Another option might be to use fishing wire and hang the pieces from above.
