1/6 Hot Toys Avengers: Endgame - Iron Man

[FSLAR]

Yes, that sounds like a nice deal, congrats!

Didn't pick him up yet! Gonna probably do it very soon since they told me he's been a big seller. Just waiting on seeing my store credit and older stuff that I can sell.

Got him in today! My first diecast Iron Man and wow, compared to my old plastic Mark VII (still a stellar piece), it's such a difference. I don't know if I'll get the Battle Damaged one or when I'll pick up the L/XLIII (the same store has the latter for a little cheaper then Sideshow's deal but we're not sure if it's the reissue), but I got this for close to $350 I think. Def had a really good deal thanks to other factors.

My only complaints were putting in those god damn batteries and the stand feeling really shoddy, especially since I have a used Iron Spider and his stand is really good. Only other thing I can think of is the lack of accessories. Is he compatible with the pieces from the L? Alternatively if the BD 85's pieces are interchangeable, I'll get some of them. Beyond all of this, he poses like a dream too and with the Nano Refocuser, he looks absolutely awesome and has such a presence.

How awesome, I am glad that you picked him up and are happy with the figure!!!

I hope that you will post some pictures of him on this forum when you get a chance, it is a beautiful figure!!

Yeah, putting the batteries in these armors is a hassle no doubt ...but damn they look good when those lights come on.

Congrats again!

Has anyone heard from Sideshow about this?

What about the body-swap program to more closely match the prototype - do they have one of those?

I talked to Sideshow last week and was told they don't have details yet but when they do we will be getting an email.

Lol! Comment that on their social media platforms. I'd enjoy seeing the feedback on that.

Looking forward to finding out if this "new" headsculpt is indeed new or a slightly modified Mk 46/47/50 sculpt.

The better question is, what about the poor souls like myself who bought it in a local store?

They should be able to help you out since their distributor will most likely facilitate it.

I am out of the loop on this one.

If I buy it online from SS, will it come with the new or old headsculpt?

It will ship with the old head sculpt, but there will be a program through Sideshow to exchange it for the new sculpt. They just haven't released the exact details of when and how it will work.

So this is my first time purchasing an Iron Man figure by Hot Toys from Sideshow. Will we get to keep the original head sculpt and they will contact us when the updated head arrives? Or what is the process to getting the new headsculpt sent to us? I know Hot Toys announced April 22 about the new heads being ready. So I am assuming that if anything it will take what 4 months to hit united states with the head replacements?

I finally got mine about a week back. PopCultcha might be a bit slow on communication, but it was shipped and received within a month, and that's pretty damn good delivery in my book. It's fine, I'm not seeing any problems or paint blotches and the such. But I haven't really "played" with it, I took it out of the box for a bit then put it back in. Nifty figure, and unless some comic accurate version comes along, this is good enough as my Iron Man representation. But I still do want a Tux/Formal Tony to pair with it. Although, it did make me think about this hobby. I dropped half a grand on, let's face it, a piece of plastic. An impressive one to be sure, but I think I'll be staying away from such "heavy" figures from now on. Or at least I'll try to resist any more Iron Men, unless it's something like a faithful Endo-Sym/Superior. I'll try to stick with the ones with tailored clothes/outfits, headsculpts and the such. That's the beauty of these figures when you get down to it. Anyway, it's still a great one, and as a longtime Ironfan, it's a damn good Modular stand-in for me. I do wonder how the HS situation will work with other vendors though. Should I contact mine and ask them?
