You should buy a statue. 1/6 figures are made for posing. Some people might pose Hawkeye looking up or looking down, etc...

yep, joints are always going to be present on poseable figures... even when they try things like rubber etc it just causes other problems.

Which can be done without the nasty seem joint, I'm not stupid..., I have many figures & all are perfectly fine with no eye sore visible joints. As for a statue, I prefer figures because more often than not statues are awkwardly posed.

no one called you stupid, but how else could they do a poseable head on hawkeye? if they did a single neck like Strike cap then theyd lose range of motion...

I thought people liked igor??

I haven't got mine yet & guessing it'll be a couple of months before I see it BUT from the pictures I've seen the figure looks ace, yes the more weathered look would've been good to have but for me at least, it doesn't matter how weathered or unweathered the figure is as I know at some point it would have obviously been pristine (when made) & over the course of time the suit would get weathered so the prototype is just this suit further along in IM3 than that of the production suit.

I was merely emphasising a point but never mind. :/

It's a pretty impressive 22-inch tall mech figure, based off of an Xbox One videogame. It's got tons of articulation and great paint apps, all for less than $450. I think a lot of collectors/reviewers will be drawing comparisons between the two.

to be fair, the much higher license fee from marvel should also be considered.
i think quite a decent portion of the igor cost went there!

I'm not saying that HB should cost $450. But for what will likely exceed $700, $750, I'm expecting quite a bit. Not five or seven points of articulation, not including fingers.

well I imagine most of that $700+ is due to the size of the figure, if it is indeed $700+ and its considerably larger than Igor. I would expect articulation but I think ground punch pose would be asking to much

Re: 1/6 Hot Toys - MMS - Avengers: AOU - Hulkbuster

I'd be surprised if this could do any pose similar to the ground punch. What I've seen (from online pics) of HB is mind blowing but the price... not to mention space might stop me.

I would be surprised if it had many more then 5-7 points of articulation. I'd say 10 is around the number. Shoulders, elbows, hips, knees and maybe ankle area with that complicated foot pad, and wrist. Every point of articulation will cost significantly, both in tooling and engineering time. On top of a few other costs.

It's not grown on me yet, thought it was creepy looking earlier & haven't changed my mind, a definite pass for me.

I'd like more than one example of the Hulkbuster, I think Hasbro's figure might be the 2nd for me (if I can find it for sale)..., if Funko make a more movie specific boble head then I'd be more interested. I've got some of their Stormtroopers & clones.
