Action Figure Article: Hot Toys QS006- Avengers: AOU 1/4th scale Mark XLV Collectible Figure

That is to be expected. Happens with every figure. The most in person accurate pic is this one. But your monitor could alter colors in ways you can't even tell.

Yes I Agree. Was a long wait - I can say it is not a let down.

Found a video - can't understand a thing - but it looks amazing

This is one you HAVE to read the instructions on when you get it. It has like half a dozen or more articulated parts the neven the 1/4 43 has. It's got so much stuff it can do.

So the "secret accessory" is the ultron gun arm?

Not really. It was in the initial promo pics so not a secret.

they said they like the metallic paint job on the 45, but still rate the 43 as the best
1/4 figure by HT.

A head and an arm as a secret accessory. Just like mark 43. What a big disappointment that was. At least the figure itself is great.

What more would you expect? They couldn't make it anything that would actually be a selling point. That's a waste of time and their money. And then the people who didn't order complain. It costs nothing at all extra so they make no money on it. Those people expecting a new head or something like that are not realistic. It was always going to be some random throw away piece.

Thanks for the summary!! It is possible because the 43 has a head sculpt and more accessories.

It's just personal preference. The 43 has a little more accessories (but not much) but the 45 has way more actual features on the figure. Personally I'd rather have a figure that's more detail with more articulation and pose options then one with more extra parts. It's all about what you like. Then there's people who like one suit over the other, or 1/6 over 1/4 or a host of other personal reasons. The 45 is a better engineered figure. Outside of that its preference

I would expect something different from mark 43. Surely not a head sculpt. But also not an ultron arm. Why to bother announcing it as a secret accessory if there is no imagination at all.

Anyway, I did order it (not because of the secret accessory). And I did cancel it (not because of the secret accessory either).

You were right. The secret accessory is useless for everyone. But iron man its awesome !!!!

i think the switchable tony head sculpt included in the 43 made a huge difference.

Again...what else was it supposed to be?

Why announce it as a secret accessorry? Why not? It's a free item so who cares what it is? It's free. Don't like it leave it in the box. If your buying a nearly 600 dollar figure, and a freebie throw in is make or break...lol.

It had to be something that is a throw away item. As in if I get it free cool, but if I don't get it (as in like half the orders since they are not all exclusive) it's ok. Anything that adds to the figure itself doesn't meet those standards. It's advertised as an accessory...and the only real accessories are the drone parts so it's not hard to see why it is an arm.

As for your canceling...um ok.

Could be.but that's nothing new. The 1/6 didn't have it either. But like I said, that's all personal preference stuff. Like for me I'm only displaying one figure with a stark head and the rest as helmeted suits. Even with 1/6 that's how I do it. I think it looks odd if they all have stark heads. And I prefer the helmeted look anyway. But that's my personal preference. And I don't even display my 43 1/4 with the stark head.

then i suggest you try a new pose with the tony head sculpt on the 43 some time.
its definitely a top notch head sculpt and i'm sure which can give you a whole new perspective.

If it's included, it's not free. It's all considered in final price. You're paying for it, even if you're getting the non exclusive.

And stop with that sarcasm. That's not polite at all. If I remember correctly, you had problems before with other users regarding this matter. For instance, you keep trying to make me sound ridiculous by indirectly suggesting that my decision to buy or not a 600 usd figure was based on a secret "free" accessory.

And I care for what it is. A lot of people did. If you don't, good for you. Just do not criticize people and try to make them sound foolish just because they don't share the same opinions as you.

Totally agree. It's the best RDJ sculpt to date. Wasn't trying to knock it or anything. I just prefer iron man to have his helmet on. Like I was saying it's just preference. But now that the 45 is out I will probably throw the head on the 43 occasionally. But I just love the 45 helmet design and colors. Plus o like helmets anyway. I have a couple imagunarium 1/1 helmets and the hasbro and some ones I made and things like that. But there's nada wrong with using the head or anything. I just prefer the helmets. All I was trying to get at is that what a reviewer or blogger or video commentator likes is more or less irrelevant as it's all about personal preference and you should look at what you like and so on. Those guys in the video (**** Po and his friends) may prefer the 43 suit to the 45, or place more value on things you may not. That's all I was getting at. Wasn't trying to be difficult
