bransen, did yours look like that from the different angles? How'd you get his head to look upwards so much?

Hmmm try bringing the knee on the ground a little bit more forward, be careful with that hip joint and play with the hip flaps for clearance.

And I'm not sure about the head, you cant get him to look more up?

Also try a tighter ab crunch and have the right arm sit higher in the shoulder, maybe that'll give u a better angle with the head. I had mine where the shoulder armor had to be posed over the torso as opposed to yours being under
 
Already had warmachine 2.0- but I picked this up for a good price in HK. It's really nice having the Rhodey head sculpt!

Now I need to preorder mark 42 to complete the diecast collection...

I'm not sure, but I think in order to get the arm touching the ground, I had to bend his torso downwards, and that is keeping him from looking up as much. It might be because of the knee bend, it's forcing me to keep his body almost parallel to the ground as opposed to at an angle upwards.

Possibly, it just take fiddling and seeing what works and what doesnt, one reason why I like posing figures :) so much fun :lol

I hate posing my figures, I always think Im gonna break something, especially Iron Man figures
 
Looks like BBTS has this in stock already. They're usually the last to receive stock for anything. I ordered from cornerstorecomics and still nothing. Strange I though they'd get their supply first since CSC and sideshow are both in SoCal. I'm doing my preorders with somebody else next time since I've noticed they've been shipping out last lately plus they're customer service is starting to suck.

Awesome.. What are your first impressions?


First impressions:
This is my first Iron Man diecast figure and so far my first impressions are good. Firstly, it comes in this great redesigned box. I appreciated the fact that Hot Toys moved away from their boring old slip cover and windowed box combo. Opening this box was a new experience for me and as a collector that's half the fun. I have to admit at first I didn't see any benefits from Hot Toys using diecast but as I handled it, I noticed that the added weight does give it a premium feel. It definitely feels more like a collectors item now and less of a toy. The paint apps are clean, sharp and vibrant and the Don Cheadle head sculpt is spot on. I'm a bit concerned with the joints being extremely tight. I had this dreadful fear of the arms and legs snapping off as I was posing him. This is definitely not something I'll want to be playing around with too much. Find your pose and leave it alone. I recommend using the included stand and waist grabber unless you want to see Iron Patriot doing a face plant. Lastly, I do find the price a bit high, especially with it being light on the accessories. I ordered the Hot Toys Captain America and Steve Rogers combo and that only cost $30 more then this. But pricing aside, my inner fan boy is happy with this purchase and I will be preordering the Diecast MK42 to display along side it.
 
Air filters for dust, dedicated display cases and UV filters for sunlight, I don't see the need for dehumidifiers.
Everything's in storage now though, no eye candy right now :lol

I need air filters, saving money for dedicated display cases but I want four and it's going to cost like 20gs so maybe never, but my collection is die cast so I need dehumidifiers for them because the armors get all sticky from humidity, life sucks
