I do like Sneaky too, probably just not enough to buy. Part of the reason I love Shotgun is because of its fighter pilot style helmet and its fighter jet themed looks.

I'm not mad about that particular design, it's just not to my tastes. I love SC because it's SC and Starboost because it has those awesome spacesuit looks.

Yeah I think it's pretty likely that the rest of the original seven will be redone, not sure if I'd get all seven or not though. Haven't even got the III yet, haha.

Like I said, those 3 are in my top 5 favorite HPP suits. Sneaky is actually #1 because I just love the look of the stealth fighter jet armor. I'm actually surprised that you attribute some of the same looks of both Sneaky and Shotgun as they're both basically modeled after jet fighters.

Oh and the diecast Mk. III was a big disappointment In my opinion.

I see the Shotgun as an F-22, and Sneaky as F-117, haha. I like them both but I prefer Shotgun.

Yeah I think most are with you there. All the issues have stopped me from wanting to get it. Such a shame, because the III is probably my favourite armour. I'll probably still get it eventually.
 
Okay dude you really gotta take down that gif of the guy pounding the table...

When I see Sneaky, I picture a robot wearing some heavily starched Dickies :rotfl
 
After watching civil war, i am glad i picked up the Mark 45 as my first ever Hot toys Iron Man figure

Starscream- I know exactly what you mean. I'm big into fighter jets too and yep, Shotgun looks like an F-22 while Sneaky looks like the old F-117A. I think the reason that Sneaky is a better looking armor to me is because of those similarities. Yes, the F-22 is my favorite fighter with no real competition but it gets its roots from the F-117A as practically any stealth plane does. Being that I'm a bit older of a fella, the F-117A will always have a special place in my heart even though there are numerous jets that have surpassed its capabilities.

So maybe that explains why Sneaky is so high on my list. Yes they both take cues from stealth jets but the nostalgia of the F-117A is what get me all choked up!
 
Actually, the hammers do come off of the arms. The only thing is that there are still little arm guards/bracers, so you don't get completely clean hands/arms.

wow.. never knew that. thank you.

And if you're thinking about Striker TimothyR, honestly the better painted one is Gamma. I know it sounds weird with the green and purple hue grey but it looks so much better than Striker In my opinion.

yeah, that paint job does look great. there's just something about the grey and yellow that i really like. which is strange since i'm not the biggest fan of the color yellow. if i were to pick up one, i'm still leaning towards striker, but it'd be a tough decision.

i never really got the impression that the shotgun was totally based on an F-22. the intakes sort of remind me of it, and so do the white lines.. but that's about it. it seems a little too glossy to be representative of it to me. and i personally just don't see enough design cues from it. i always saw sneaky as an amalgam of all of the fighter jets. it's got a bunch of parallel lines, it has very F-22 shaped tail fins on its back, it's got more the lighter lines like the F-22, it's got the zig-zag patterns like the F-22's and F-117's have, it's got the dual thrusters on its back like the F-22.

oh well, they're both really cool for whatever reason in my opinion lol.

my only complaint about sneaky are his bellbottoms. i wish sneaky's lower legs were a little better looking. i'm still pretty excited for it.

I hear this should be releasing soon

Possibly in HK today (Monday).

where have you guys heard this from? that's exciting!!!
 
In that case it will be a lesser ugly monday [emoji1][emoji1][emoji6]

You find out your teammate you had a falling out with is risking their life for a notorious assassin who also killed your mother, I think you'd be pissed too.

After watching CW (finally), I still say I like 45 better...
because this Tony is heroic and not crazy on avenging his mother's death...
Most of the film he wasn't as he doesn't even find that out until the end. Plus its not like he doesn't have a good reason to be upset. He's fighting against his teammates to begin with and on top of it finds out that Cap is not only protecting Bucky but also that Cap knows Bucky killed Tony's parents and withheld that information. I think I'd be pretty upset too.

I'm not massively into aircraft or anything like that but I do love the design of the F-22. It's so sleek, but muscular at the same time. Seriously cool looking machine. No wonder Lamborghini have used it as inspiration for their cars :lol

I totally get the nostalgic feel for the F-117. It's an incredibly sharp looking piece of kit, and is of course the starting point for all things stealth. The first thing that anyone thinks of when they think 'stealth'. I do really like how those two armours mirror those two aircraft. They must have had fun designing some of those HPP armours.

I just think they're both reminiscent of those two aircraft.

What, you don't love Sneaky's flares?! :lol

And not only finding out Bucky killed his parents which is bad enough but he actually watched him kill them. If the roles were reversed cap would have done the same thing.
