Anyone put a mk4/6 head on this yet? not tony, the helmet
I dont think so, they may be able to rotate but I think its all a closed system
Yeah, the fists do rotate but nothing else within the arms is articulated aside from the elbow joint and the claws at the end.
Semi posable statue
Yeah. Its a Power Pose. That is what it is.
Red Snapper? After a few months, this will turn into the Pink Snapper...
There is a dude on another board who removed the claws for a different look and I may try that later.
If you like robots, don't really care about whether RDJ wore what in the movie, and just want to stare at cool mechanical details then this would be a very cool pick-up.
What forum?
Do you have a link?
If i ever pick this one up, i reckon i will put a Tony head in the helmet. He had to have worn it at least once.
Just picked one up this morning. I never even entertained getting one until the in-hand pics..seeing one live on display sealed the deal. I know that this is one of the least popular suits because it does not look like your typical IM and also Tony Stark did not wear it in the movie. However as a lover of all things mecha this piece really showcase the workings of a mech suit wonderfully with all the exposed pistons and all. The size is pretty impressive and when I glance at my meagre IM collection of 5 suits (WM, WM Mk II, IV, XXI, and II) the Snapper really stands out among others which to the untrained eye look the same except with different colors (with exception of war machine).

Rep'dHere's the link...the dude also modified the waist so it can turn and added lights to the hands so they also light up.

Apparently you just have to pull on the claws to detach them. I tried it just now but maybe the factory used a bit more glue on mine so they don't seem to be coming off easily. Maybe when I get bored of the claw look then I will be more adventurous and just dissemble the whole arm.
I was also able to put my Tony Stark head from Mk IV on the Red Snapper so I don't know why HT says to only use the Mk VI head? I think using the Tony Stark on this suit looks really good as it actually looks like he'd fit in there. When I display the Mk IV with the Stark head it just doesn't look right probably because the overall proportion of the armor is too slim so it really doesn't look like 'man in a suit' but more like he's a cyborg with human head.
