She is. And you get the iron man arm as well as bare feet so you can display her looking like she did at the end of IM3

Or, you could put the bare feet on the MK9 and display a scene were Tony wore his suit to the beach.

Diecast. This isn't. The last normal release plastic iron man was 240ish. And it was starboost I think. Completely new armor. This is not. Pepper can use clothing patterns and body from previous releases. So it's a partly reused plastic iron man and a new head.
Robocop and Murphy wasn't Diecast either.

Thinking this whole set will be pretty close to $400 if not more.

Must be similar priced to the RoboCop/Murphy set I would imagine.

Is the Mark IX really a very popular suit? Just looks like another red and gold version to me. With the recent release of the Mark III and 43 and with the 45 on order, you'd think there were enough red and gold suits available right now lol.

Glad they're finally making a Pepper. Love that it comes with accessories to create different versions of her. Now if they only sold it separately.

POPtoys will make some other outfits like they did for Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, Bruce Wayne and Catwoman.

Which means Battle Damaged Robocop had to have its own mold, then. You can't use the same molds for DieCast and plastic. So it was a figure with a lot of custom molding, and it's more expensive.

The MK9 is plastic, and reuses existing molds designed for plastic. So no new tooling required for that entire suit.

Again, it may be $400, because hell, why not? People will pay it. But the argument stands that they could charge less, based on suspected lower manufacturing costs.

I doubt it costs all that much to remold 4 pieces into plastic... and the all plastic BD robo was just as expensive as diecast, so the costs seemingly balance out

My wallet is screaming for help now... I've pre-ordered 1/4 Iron Man MK 43, and 1/6 Iron Man MK 45... now this.

want Pepper without the armour

Took me forever to notice the Mark 42 helmet with Potts sculpt inside. Might just pick that up to stick on my Mark 42.
