Hot Toys - IRON MAN - MARK III PHOTO Thread

[Skiman]

I have Mark II on order from SS.

 

[Dally]

how many of you are getting the mark 2 btw?

Im thinking of getting a mark 2 and replace the head with this dude:

since its rumored that he's going to wear the mark 2 in the next ironman 2 movie.

"next time, baby."

Yeah, but unfortunately they replaced Terrance Howard. I'm most likely getting the Mark II, I'm not going to pre-order though because I think I can snag one when it releases.

oh, so the rumors are true that he's being replaced by don cheadle?

I know, these are going to be easily available.

Even the extra bust isnt tempting enough to order it from SS ex.

 

[DarthTrafford]

I may actually be offering these soon. Keep an eye out for a for sale thread.

If you make some I might be interested!
:chew

 

[OSCORP]

I might be as well.

 

[hbk007]

I would be in for a few of those displays as well. They look amazing.

Hey guys I've been thinking about Bashing a Tony Stark when he hears the news about the Gulmira incident when he's trying out the Mark III glove in his workspace and shoots out the mirrors. So far the head is obvious, a basic truetype body, the mark III's opened right Hand and the "Proof that Tony Stark has a Heart light up accessory from the Mark II and I guess I'd strip apart a 12" hasbro IronMan to get the other pieces for the forearm. Personally the suit look doesn't flow well with me. I'd rather see a Stark figure before that battle, but thats just me.

 

[Hydeous]

That'd be one very interesting custom!

Anybody made a thread bout stark customs yet?

My Mk III just arrived from Toys2, and I love him, but he has a weird pucker in the vinyl on the stomach part of the armor which annoys me. (I've not seen this in anyone else's photos) I wish I could easily do something about it, but I don't want to spend a fortune to send it back. I'm just posing him in ways that I don't focus on his stomach.

 

[knucklefunger]

Yeah, it's a complex fig, but jeez, for the price I thought Hot Toys would have better quality control. Disappointing! Sounds like a lot of people have defects. Sorry Hot Toys, but this fig has made up my mind on a lot of future purchases. If I'm gonna drop hard earned cash it better be worth it.

 

[Hydeous]

I think that's very common.

I'm looking at mine right now, it looks spectacular, next to my TDK. I can't wait till mark 2 and 1 comes so that he's not the only marvel in a shelf of DC!

 

[Dr.Mirakle32]

Can't see anything wrong with my Iron Man, but my TDK OC Batman came out of the box with scuffs and scratches on his rubber suit.

 

[uscmhicks]

I've just had to put mine up for sale !.
Its an awesome figure and I will be buying it back... I just have some bills to pay !.

Heres the sale thread.

Keep the photos coming guys !.

Now to think of where to buy him again...

 

[Hydeous]

I think the only QC problem we've heard so far is from mark 3.

But yeah, it does makes me wary of POs. I'd rather pay a bit more and be able to inspect prior to purchasing the figs.

I wish I had a place nearby to inspect ahead.
I wonder if I should try writing Hot Toys? I wouldn't mind disassembling to put a replacement in, but I can't imagine they'd send the part.

This is making me nervous about the problems. The price has shot up on ActionHQ for this, ouch! $249.95

Mark 2 has went up as well, $175.95

The time when I placed the orders, Mark 3 was $159.95, Mark 2 was $159.95 as well. I wonder whats put it up.

Oh god! I was going to pre-order Mark 1 soon, it was $199.99, now it's $229.95, screw that!

 

[The Drizzle]

I will tell you that I'm glad to have it, minor defect or not. It is insanely complex, and could not have been easy to make.

Wow! I actually have the Mark I pre-order for the lowest price of the three at $150, $160 shipped. Granted it will be from when SS imports it so I'll be one of the last to get it.

Sadly importing from America is worse to the UK than from Hong Kong. Each figure from America comes to £30 for import taxes. $45 for shipping.

I do hope ActionHQ drops the price or maybe its a hiccup.

Whats worse is Forbiddenplanet has Mark 1 on pre-order for £161.99, which works out to $230.76
