The numbers next to joker, spidey and widow; are those how many are being made TOTAL, or the number in HK?

That’s the Hong Kong quantities. They listed the global quantities in the product descriptions: 3,500 for Iron Spider (Artisan), 4,000 for Widow with the gauntlet, etc.

I'm not a huge fan of this armor but this is a really nice figure. I hope it sets the standard for future armors

The gold color seems to be wrong. It should be a champagne gold but it looks really yellow in video. Hopefully it's due to average video quality

Looks like there's a strong light-source pointing right at it, judging from the reflection. The reveal photos are more gold.

Still not quite as accurate at the 1/4's paint, but much better than the 1.0.

I’m curious how the ab crunch will work on this figure; can’t get a good sense of it from the photos. I’d prefer it worked like the Mark 3 2.0 instead of the older figures that required elongating the torso even further before it could bend at all.

the og release can be had for under 20k yen which is very cheap..

 

[Resident Eric]

Bbts costs even more

Price does hurt, but you do get a lot and multiple looks in one package particularly if you go for the deluxe. I'll order, but in no rush since there's no timed exclusive. The main focus this week is ordering the artisan figures

How are we feeling about the headsculpt on this? Is it just me thinking the eyes are off?

I think there's something a little odd about the eyes at some angles and his face looks too full to me in some angles, but I also think it's one of their best RDJ sculpts so far and probably second-best one to include moving eyes, after that new Mark II sculpt (which is obviously a younger Tony).

J.C. Hong has some behind-the-scenes pics today.

I think it might be one of the best, if not the best RDJ sculpts yet. I definitely prefer it over the new Mk 3 sculpt.

For a company that sculpted him so many years, I can't say they got the likeness down. Some of the 3rd parties ones are still better.

i think for this price, HT should have done the artisan treatment on his hair. i believe it will make the sculpt way closer to the IM3 movie. somehow after all these years, HT still suck at hair sculpting of RDJ, making him look like he down alot of hair gel for a fire fight LOL

 

[IANR]

Still painful but £413 + c/card charge seems fair with free shipping from kit its quite a saving & supports the independent businessman.
