Hot Toys - Iron Man 2:Mark IV Limited Edition spec

[vangeta]

The entire midwest is getting pounded by heavy wind and snow. My University is closed today and tomorrow in anticipation.

Mines say delivered. But there was nothing at my front door. I was home waiting for it. Heard the UPS truck and looked out the window to see him pulling away from my neighbor 4 doors up. Went to check, but it was her package. He must of scanned mine delivered instead of hers. Now I'm hoping he comes back when he finds my package still on his truck.

Well my second Mark IV is currently sitting in a frozen UPS facility. We experienced an unusual recording breaking weather event here in Oklahoma today, a Blizzard dumped 14 inches of snow where I live. It was a first for me seeing my package with the following status on the UPS site...

02/01/2011 2:00 P.M. Adverse weather conditions. / The movement of the package will resume as soon as the weather conditions allow.
02/01/2011 10:08 A.M. Emergency conditions beyond UPS' control.
02/01/2011 5:02 A.M. Out For Delivery
02/01/2011 12:42 A.M. Arrival Scan

It was initially scheduled for delivery tomorrow, so I was surprised to see it arrived today.

Same here. Although, surprisingly, it did make it from OKC to the Stillwater facility overnight last night. Delivery was suppose to be today but I knew that wasn't gonna happen.

WORK SUCKS!

It does pay for our toys though....

Your about to open a masterpiece tonight then Mags. Congrats!

It is indeed a masterpiece. Gonna be a while before I figure how he all works. I have the day off of work tomorrow, so that will help, and I hope to post pics soon!

Snowmageddon in middle America for sure.

Don't hesitate to contact UPS to sort that out. Hope you get your package.

Yeah, judging by the time stamp, the UPS driver pulled here into the Tulsa facility when it first started sleeting before the snow started coming down. I was going to be surprised if the UPS truck was actually on a delivery run today on these ice and snow packed roads while some snow plows were getting stuck in town.

Got this guy today. Sucks about him lacking the articulation he showed in the official pics--lack of head mobility is a bummer. Like some others, the countermeasure deal on his hip pops out all the time.

Still, the best looking Iron Man so far.

I called them right away, but they said I had to contact the Seller. But with it saying it was delivered, I feel it's going to be my word over the scan. It didn't come tonight, hope it does tomorrow. I did call the Seller, Fanboy Collectibles, but no one answer. Left a message. Will try again tomorrow. Hope the UPS driver didn't decide to keep it. I'm so disappointed, words can't describe it.

I had that happen once. A week later it turned up. Very bizzarre.

Ask all your neighbors, could have left with any one of them too

I was out on my street with 'bed hair' looking on their front doors, you should of seen the looks the neighbor that had gotten a package from UPS gave me . She probably though I was trying to steal her package. No, he only made the one stop, at her house. UPS is always in a hurry. Just going to have to hope it show up tomorrow.

I had a shipping snafu myself today. For some strange reason, BBTS shipped this to my old place that I moved out from in the summer. Since then, I changed my BBTS address on file, and even had a package shipped to my new place since then with no problems. But this package got shipped there for some reason, and I had to drive over there tonight and bother the new residents to pick him up.

One of the first things I said to my wife when I was unpacking this guy was "I don't think this figure would survive a fall."


I was wrong! I was futzing with the flight stand and dropped him about 3 feet!


And he's just fine.

One of the many benefits of being lightweight.

You forgot to knock on wood.

Yeah, my W2 went to any old two year old address. Even though I updated my current address on numerous occasions.

Still haven't figured out how to turn on the chest light yet...

Got mine today. So nice, but posing is kind of stressful. It's my first HT figure and every movement feels like he's gonna snap. My back flaps don't go flat either btw

Small switch on the back under the small back flap on the right hand side of the figure

Found it! Thanks.

Summing up all your posts here Mags but I had to when I was reading your posts as I could relate 100%. When I first got War Machine I felt like such a newb. These Iron Man toys are very different from your average Hot Toy release.

I will say after messing with War Machine for awhile I was ready to receive the Mark IV (which is actually easier to work with IMO). It's the articulation or the way the joints work and the switches, etc that make them different but fun!

Looking forward to the Iron Man orgy of pictures that are coming from the Menagerie! I'm finishing up some more myself tonight/ tomorrow and hope to have them posted soon.

I FINALLY replaced the helmet head with the Downey H/S...wow...just wow in person.
