I would say there would be some people who are late to the party and "just discovered hot toys" and are willing to buy the HB at an elevated price.
Im trying to think of large pieces made by hot toys, like the TDK tumbler or Burton batmobile. How are the prices on that for after market?

Certainly possible. The tumble sells for @ retail now, maybe a little above. @ $450-650. Thats alos Why I used Iron Monger and Igor as examples. They are both selling for much less than retail

Market conditions change and there's a lot more collectors nowadays. Not to mention the engineering quality involved nowadays is much better than it was before.
No one can really say what's going to happen.

The engineering on Iron Monger is one of the best, still puzzles me why that one hasn't skyrocketed.

HT will never give a number but they will probably make more than you think. They spent a lot of time on this and will want to sell as many as possible. Bbts having stock come back in is a possible indication of this.

There was a QC issue with Monger. A piece on the leg, near the hip, cracks. I've seen others post about this, and mine has it as well.

Iron Monger retailed for $479.99 -- it is very rare (at least in my part of the world) to see him anywhere close to that.

Dead listing. I typically see him around the 6-700 range.

What does dead listing mean? Those auctions are recently ended ( over the last few months ). I'm not saying you haven't seen them sell for what you are saying, I'm simply saying, Iron Monger can be bought for less than retail. And I proved it.

And I'm so proud of you. Now, are you willing to part with yours at that price, because I'm willing to buy it!

No need to be a ******. We were having a conversation. Sorry you have thin skin and can't admit when you are wrong.

Iron Monger had hip cracking issues due to a heavy upper portion. HT solved that by putting Die-cast on the Hulkbuster around the lower area as support.

No need for name calling big fella. And you didn't really prove anything. If you can't find a figure regularly at that price then that's not the going value -- it's a steal. I recently picked up a second mark 42 for $110 but I would never call that the going rate.
Would you sell your Iron Monger for $300? I sure as hell wouldn't.
Also, general rule of thumb -- don't call somebody "thin skinned" and then proceed to insult them. It's a bad look.

Dude that's a steal.... Mk42 for $110. Jesus

that is a steal. I think with the flood of Iron Man figures from the IM3 line, the prices on the house protocol armors all generally go for below retail. With the exception of the exclusives, etc.
Damn... I don't even like/want Mk42 and I'd still have bought it at that price.

Mega steal. I really want to get his neck piece out for the 5.0 head sculpt, but it can't easily be done -- so this ones getting the dremel. Whole point being (and now we're back on topic) is that I really really really want an un-helmeted tony in my Hulkbuster.
