Hoping that HT releases this in WM colors as well...
Same. That's why I'm holding off for now. Maybe an exclusive of some sort, I hope.

Some more from the artbook.

The Avengers: Endgame script confirms that War Machine is now Earth's most powerful Avenger. The final battle in Avengers: Endgame saw Colonel James Rupert "Rhodey" Rhodes suit-up in a brand new armor, one never before seen in the MCU. Inspired by the Iron Patriot armor he wore back in Iron Man 3, the updated armor he wore in Avengers had considerably more firepower.
Little by little, though, Marvel Studios is gradually revealing just how powerful the new Iron Patriot armor really is. Marvel recently released the full script for Avengers: Endgame; in it, Rhodey's exoskeletal suit is referred to "Cosmic Iron Patriot" armor. Until now, viewers had assumed this was just another Stark-created powered exoskeleton, but it looks as though this isn't the case. Instead, this new Iron Patriot costume has been upgraded with alien technology, potentially from either Rocket or Captain Marvel. That presumably means the Cosmic Iron Patriot has weapons that are beyond anything else on Earth ? potentially even beyond Tony Stark's imagination.
The Art of Avengers: Endgame reveals just how much thought Marvel put into the Cosmic Iron Patriot armor. "I decided to have different levels of situational readiness akin to the military's DEFCON threat levels," concept sculptor Adam Ross explained. Concept art shows various different iterations, as additional rockets pop out, or some sort of energy weapons unsheathe on the shoulders. According to Marvel, the War Machine is designed to take on literal armies.
Oddly enough, Rhodey didn't play a major role in the Avengers' war against Thanos and his forces. That's probably because Marvel heavily edited this final fight, removing a full aerial battle.

I mean, if you want to split hairs here... One could make the argument that Captain Marvel and Dr Strange aren't "officially" Avengers yet, I guess? And perhaps Banner gave up some of Hulks strength on exchange for maintaining intelligence?More powerful than Captain Marvel, Hulk, Scarlet Witch, and Doctor Strange?
Not bad, I'll need to find one for the Mk4
Looks good, but now that I see it with an unmasked sculpt it really emphasizes how big the armor is compared to the man that would be inside and how difficult it would be to operate. His arms would either have to be down by his sides or sticking straight out at a 90 decree angle and then bent at the elbows in order to fit into the arms of the armor. I guess I'll just have to back to suspending disbelief.
