I'm impatient though, and the pics are not helping :)

thanks Joe...:D
 
Just got mine from Joe. This guy is truly impressive in-hand. At work right now so can't play around with it too much, but all the lights work, the paintwork is fantastic, the back leg flaps open to an uneven height and I couldn't care less!
 
Ugh, man I wish SS would hurry up and import this. I'm getting impatient. :google

yeah i ordred from sideshow when mk3 went up for preorder but in a low on cash panic attack i canceled.....then like 2 weeks ago placed an order for it with toys2. now it seems im gonna have to wait till the end of March to get my mk3 cuz they only got a part of their orders from hot toys......bummer! :banghead
 
Got my 2nd Mark 03 this afternoon. I love this figure, can't wait for the rest.

One interesting thing to not, the Stark head "hole" where it meets the ball joint is larger than your average one. I tried to stick the head on a standard HT TrueType and it was too big and flopped off, the ball joint on the Mark 03 was larger than normal. Another interesting note is that the size differed between the different pieces. One was too "narrow" for the Mark 03 neck and made the neck look really elongated. The second which ironically came with the first Mark 03 was wider and fit much better.

You can see the beginnings of my Stark custom so far, just waiting on the shirt, tie and shoes from eBay.

I hope Razor's Edge will ship theirs soon.
I have a feeling though, they get theirs from SSC and won't ship until they get it from them.:(
:chew
By the way does the figure include batteries or are they not included?
Also what kind of batteries does it take?
 
Got this guy today - awesome figure. Most of the 'normal' joints are really tight, but some of the flaps are really loose. I'm a little worried about the long-term survival of the paint on the rubber sections, since I noticed one small chip had already occurred - hopefully that was just a factory problem (something on the rubber when they sprayed it perhaps) and we won't have flaking paint down the track. In fact, the paint wasn't quite as great as I've come to expect from HT. A couple of very small, stray marks, and Tony arrived with a paint rub on his nose - I won't be displaying the unmasked head anyway, but it does suck that such an awesome sculpt has a shiny spot on the end of the nose.

The couple of paint and joint issues (including the rear leg flap that was assembled incorrectly) prevent it from being a full 10/10, but it's a really solid 9.
 
Mine arrived today from ABC Express, really like him so looking forward to the MK I & II on preorder.

The only issue was a flap on his back lost its pin holding it in place but that was easily resolved..........

So may positions to choose from and some great ones here to give me some ideas :chew
 
tigerfeet, also got mine from abc express, this guy has amazing service

Just a note to all custom head creators, consider casting in the same material & color that the Tony Stark has been done in. The semi-translucent material ads a lot of realism, despite the good, not great paint treatment. Impressive I'm not a comic property fan however, I love this fig. Could not be more impressed, make me want to get the POTA now
 
I opened mine up last night and the light feature is incredible! It's a really nice 1/6th and i can't wait for the rest of them
