Darn you for living in California.

It takes forever their packages to get to me in Pennsylvania. Mine has shipped today and will probably arrive on Monday or Tuesday.

I'm in the same boat. Patiently waiting.

Decent figure In my opinion; got it from HK release a few weeks back. I still fell like the DC Mk. I is the best WM but this is still great. Only issue I feel are the shoulders like Xenomorph said in his video. If people complained about the gaps on the Mk. XLII, this one has them too but in some poses worse.

I remember that in Xenomorph's video but if you look at how he had the shoulder armor positioned on top compared to how the shoulder armor is rotated to the side and back in other pics of a similar pose it looks like that gap can be closed some; though part of this is just the angle.

Here is Xenomorph's from his video...



And here is another pic of the same pose with the shoulder armor rotated off the top of the shoulder and moved to the side and back and looks a little better...



When I mentioned this to Xenomorph he said he would try it and let me know how it worked, but never got back to me. Does this help at all in what you were talking about?

The shoulder gap is not bad when the figure is in a museum pose. That is how I display my figures so no problem for me.

Are the 3's shoulder pads more like the 1's or 2's?

 

[guy66657]

Woo he just arrived!

Holy ****, picking the figure up by himself...the weight is just astounding compared to the diecast Mark III being my first diecast figure. and i thought picking up the DC Mark III for the first time was heavy! Haha weight wise, the Mark III War Machine feels very premium.

And people say the plastic "iron men" are fine. The Die-cast really gives you what you paid for

Absolutely. Not trying to kick up the DV vs Plastic war, but I've never understood the argument. People don't question the value difference between a plastic fork and a metal one, amirite?

Man, this War Machine in hand is really making me consider buying the Mark 46 now.

That's one of the best analogies I've ever heard lol

As Malgus said, in a museum pose, the gap isn't noticeable at all but really anything with the arms raised to 90° or higher and the gap is very noticeable.

Of course there are the posing tricks we all learn as we collect (angle of the torso for example) that can help hide the gaps but they are there. It definitely is NOT a deal breaker In my opinion but it's something you will notice.
