Hot Toys – MMS132 - Iron Man 2: Mark VI full spec and pics

[IXI Nick IXI]

Well WM was out first so they probably didnt think of it soon enough, just like the mkIV LED base...should have come with every armor variation or at least be sold separately for HoA displays

 

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Good point, I forgot WM released prior to the VI. And totally agree that it would be nice to buy the HoA base direct and separately instead of having to get mauled on evilbay for them.

 

[jayveeeusebio]

i agree that VI and WM should have interlocking or at the very least complementary bases

that's my proposal to HT too when they revealed Mark VI specs

 

[Reefer Shark]

Sweet sweet pic, Reefer Shark!

This fig radiates greatness at 300 gigajoules per second.

Thanks man, but damn - your pics are effin amazing

Such an awesome figure..

 

[Butters]

It is a mystery why they didn't give WM a base that fitted in with the VI.

 

[Butters]

I'm using that pose.

I don't knock the design or anything, imo it looks goods in it's own right.

It's the dimensions & design of the base that bugs me. With the left side elevated and toward the front it always seemed to get in my way for poses and limited what I wanted to do. I could spin the base to avoid that but then I'd be forced to pose without the clear rod for support, and I don't pose any of my figures with them. Not worth the risk of a Mark VI swan diving off a 7 foot shelf

I'm not big on the shape either which made it stick out like a sore thumb in my personal display. Had HT decided to give War Machine a similar base I'd probably feel different having been able to pose both them together on them.

Makes sense. I do find the placement of the clear rod to be a nuisance, often severely limiting options, but like you I won't leave him without the rod holding him up. He's on the top shelf and a tumble to the floor would certainly doom him.

Great pose indeed - tried recreating it.

So, if anyone wants to sell the left forecarm covers just send me a PM.

Some guy on ebay apparently needed cash quick, and I managed to get this thing loose for $90 shipped. I just happened to be browsing ebay a few seconds after he put the auction up.
I feel really lucky right now.

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

did you receive it already?

 

[ShadowX81]

Naw, just bought it like 10 minutes ago. Should have it by the end of the week.

Was this the base body auction? Nice price btw

looks like the auction for the base body. good find. i am looking for one as well!

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

well best of luck that it all works out

 

[ShadowX81]

Thanks.

Yea, base bodies have been selling for $200 even with pieces like the chest armor missing so I feel really lucky to have gotten one for so cheap with pretty much all the pieces needed to display the clean version. And since I have the Tony sculpt on my MK IV, I have a spare head and neck lying around to complete this thing.
Ive never had any interest in the battle damaged pieces (displaying a battle damaged Iron Man had always seemed to me like making a model of a totaled car) so this is apsolutly perfect. The only thing I need to find is the black stand which should be easy.

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

I have like 6 extra black stands man if you need one

 

[Kanjar210]

Love the Mark VI looks great Battle damage and clean. I have 2 displayed like that.

 

[Kanjar210]

I saw this in a another thread and you can see fading on the MK III and that doesn't look like it gets sunlight.

BY the way how awesome does that setup look?

All The HT Iron Man should have come with the Mark IV stand so you can interlock them and display them like this

 

[The Side of the Show]

The mark III looks not proportion to its body compare to mark IV and VI

 

[klocket]

Man, i should not have come in here... I thought i was content with just the Mark IV but the BD set up this guy is aces!

I may have to drop the cash on this guy before he gets too unattainable ... errrr.
