For anyone who ordered this figure from Timewalker, any word if they have the replacement portraits?
how much did shipping cost you? I was quoted $90 to ship to CanadaMy Endgame figure with revised headsculpt arrived here to me in the US from Toyswonderland yesterday. Even after express DHL shipping, the figure with revised headsculpt costs less than Sideshow's version with the older smiling sculpt. So I'm well pleased with that. The batteries will need to be replaced with higher quality ones, the arm lights in particular dimmed within about ten minutes. The articulation is awesome in the arms and neck. The waist and legs are are a bit rigid though, even with the improvements. There's not side to side in the ankles, and very little at all in the torso. But the proportions are dead on in my opinion. There were some issues raised earlier with gaps around the shoulder pauldrons, but mine seems really nicely designed with no visible gaps. They rest seamlessly against the arms and traps. The lighter hair is a nice upgrade to the sculpt, that gives it a more Endgame era look. I like this figure a lot, and think it's a nice balance against the Mark VI diecast which is the only other 1/6 suit in my collection at the moment.

Haven’t heard dick from themAny updates on Sideshow with getting our replacement head yet?
Nice pics! I do like that sculpt. What do you intend to use for better batteries? Any replacements I’ve ever purchased on Amazon don’t seem to be any brighter or last any longer than the ones Hot Toys includes.My Endgame figure with revised headsculpt arrived here to me in the US from Toyswonderland yesterday.

I’ll try energizer and see if it improves it at all. I think you can only get so much juice out of those tiny button cells though. Honestly, I rarely ever use the light up features so I’m not inclined to pay it any more attention than this.Nice pics! I do like that sculpt. What do you intend to use for better batteries?

That’s a tough call. I have the battle damaged 85 on preorder because that RDJ sculpt is so good. But there’s too much “damage” on the suit for my display tastes. So this clean version with an improved sculpt was worth me checking out. When the BD comes out, I’ll have to make a hard choice. But until then, I’ll enjoy this figure.Very clean pics Rory. I just wish they’d release the BD 85 so I can decide if I’m going to keep that order or fold and get this one. Would love to get the revised sculpt version while it’s still available
The $70 shipping kills me but they gave a $10 coupon. About $420 shipped. I have the bd version pre-ordered but doesn't look like it will be out any time soonI think it was around $75. The figure itself was only $360. So all in it was $435. Which is still less than Sideshowtoy's figure, shipped, with the old headsculpt.
Still cheaper than ordering from Sideshow. And you get the improved sculpt.The $70 shipping kills me but they gave a $10 coupon. About $420 shipped. I have the bd version pre-ordered but doesn't look like it will be out any time soon
For no reason at all, here's the tweaks I wish they would've made to the final to get a better match to the suit on screen.
