Well you do realize that towards the end of the movie, Ultron is revealed as

Spoiler

Trevor Slattery's twin brother

Does that help?

Spoiler

Alistair Slattery - You'll never see him coming.

I'm pretty sure the Tony head is the clean version of the BD head that came with the XLII, is it not? And it's always been part of the PO, right?

Yeah your right. I think I was thinking of the 1/4 scale.

 

[Brainiac]

Yeah your right. I think I was thinking of the 1/4 scale.

1/4 scale doesnt come with much I think..... very sad

 

[Motuxmen]

Yea if I remember right (this time lol) it was like upper chest and bicep parts. But being the first 1/4 IM I can understand from there point

I dont think Ultron "dies" in this, he'll be stopped for sure and shutdown, but I doubt they'll be able to destroy him completely. I mean if he's got access to all this information then he realise it's a wise idea to have multiple contingency plans.

Well crud. Stark really screwed up.

 

[DasMuse]

Pfft... Ultron can't die.

At least I hope it's one thing about Ultron that Feige and Whedon decided to keep from the comics.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Howard won't let Feige and Whedon kill off Ultron.

Ultron may be made of Vibranium in the movie but in his eyes he might as well be made of gold

SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!How do you do spoilers on this site? Stop reading if you don't wanna be spoiled. They send him to outer space and somehow the Hulk is sent with him. Then Hulk is in Guardians of the Galaxy 2 as they try to bring him home.

Big mofo...

:eek

He's huge! I can sorta understand why they're charging so much for him now.

Yeah honestly, I really think he's not overpriced given that: his entire body is a completely a new sculpt; he has an intricate robot body that requires a lot of care/attention with the engineering (just as much if not more than any IM suit); he's 16 inches tall; he's the Avengers baddie of the second film

Now, I know folks have said that the head sculpt is inaccurate when compared to the Empire magazine cover, but upon closer inspection I think that might not be true after all. When I was comparing various images of Ultron Prime, I noticed that the Empire cover seems to have added more panel lines on his face. If you compare screenshots of Ultron Prime's face from the trailers, the lines on HT's sculpt seem to match the onscreen look pretty damn closely. Aside from the obvious fact that the Empire cover has him scowling (hence the major difference in expression), it really does seem like a different model from the one we've been seeing in the trailers.

At this point I do ought to wonder, was the Empire cover an earlier concept design for Ultron Prime? Because HT's sculpt seems to match the various shots of Ultron Prime from the trailers, e.g. the "nasal" ridges on the sides are thicker and much more prominent, the panel lines underneath his "cheekbones" (the one just above the edges of his "mouth") are farther down unlike the Empire cover

Honestly I think the biggest problem that HT is having a hard time dealing with is the fact that, while it's easy to smooth out the panel lines on a full 3D CGI model, they need thin them out on a figure. I think what makes the sculpt look more "busy" than it should is the fact that the lines on his face need to be thinner, especially since some of them are nearly invisible in the shots that we've seen of Ultron Prime.

Yes, all the lines on HT's sculpt are definitely accurate in terms of their placement/inclusion, rather they should be less prominent and should look more like small engravings on the actual sculpt. That said, the head sculpt definitely looks when going by the convention photos, especially since the light reflecting off the sculpt seems to obscure those sculptural lines and streamlines the overall sculpt to create a more smooth appearance.

 

[Brainiac]

I still think the Empire cover is closer to the screenshot
