I imagine we should be seeing some more HPP announced soon, once this ships there's none in the pipeline

Yeah, I would hope so. There're 16 Armors left from the HPP. I wonder how they are going to announce the armors that don't have a code name? (ie Mark VIII, X, XI, XII, XIII, XIV)

Why does the name of this iron man make me think of some Zoolander porno parody?

Just got the charging soon e-mail from Sideshow. Still scheduled to ship this Friday, April 7th.

Yep. Me too. Are you getting the new XLI as well?

Nah, I'm only collecting the canon IM suits. Tbh I'm not really interested in any of the non-canon variants (e.g. Stealth Mark 7, Stealth Mark 3, Retro Sneaky, Retro Bones). Collecting 46 suits (47 including the Homecoming armor) is quite enough for me.

 

[duo_maxwell_1017]

I see a pending charge for this!! Hopefully this goes out tonight!!

 

[duo_maxwell_1017]

And Blue Steel has shipped!!

Shipped also. First of 3 armors this month

Blue steel, war machine mark 3, and mark 46. I'm pumped. I hope they reveal jack and shades soon, then I'd like piston, hammerhead, and nightclub

Same here... It's going to be an expensive month.

 

[chusifer]

love me some iron man

That paint job is simply amazing, really come a long since Centurion!

 

[TimothyR]

Mine arrives today.

I hope preorders for jack and shades go up soon.

I also hope we get nightclub, hammerhead, piston, tiger, etc.

 

[zackhigh1226]

Mine arrives today as well.

I'd love to see pre-orders go up for more HPP suits. I feel like it has been forever since one was announced. I'd particularly like to see Nightclub and Piston. Shades would be cool too, and I'm betting that it will be this summer's Toy Fair exclusive.

 

[mikericm]

I'm guessing we'll see 2 or 3 new HPP armors between now and fall. Especially with all the cons scheduled.

 

[MarvelZombie]

Paint app looks awesome on this guy...I've got mine coming soon. Then Mk46, pre-ordered the diecast 5&6 too...I'm a glutton for punishment.

 

[TimothyR]

Mine will arrive today between 1pm and 5pm EST. I really wish they had given him a new plastic waist piece rather than sticking with the rubbery one.

Anyways, then war machine mark 3 will be charged for and hopefully shipped next week. Then after that I only have preorders for the 6 and 46. I kind of want the 5, but not enough to drop that amount of money on it. It's a really awesome scene, and the figure looks fantastic, but I think I'll be sticking with mark's 6 and up.

So, I think I'd like to see shades and jack be the next exclusives since we've already seen their prototypes in promo shots for other armors, and I'd like to see nightclub and hammerhead be the next totally new armors. I haven't gone through the list in a while, but with the addition of nightclub and hammerhead made, they should have all of the parts needed to give us the rest of the house party armors.

Overall nice paint and weathering, but I wish they had abstained from the extra airbrush blob (yet again) on the ol chrome dome

Also my shoulder flair was broken off in the box

That blows, are you going to get it replaced?

I just wish the centurion armor had as nice of a paint job.
