I don't see these "leanness" issues that people are talking about. It looks perfectly proportional to me.

Plastic for the body and resin for the Stark head.
I don't think the actual neck piece moves at all. I haven't seen any pics with it moved. The head looks like it slides over a ball joint (which also houses the led) so the head can only move side to side and maybe slightly up and down. But to me, the actual neck piece looks static and unmoveable.
Man, IM is mind blowin'

I think it looks okay on it's own, but proportion-wise, the only way Robert Downey Jr. would fit in that is if he was a really tall twig.
I have no plans of getting myself an IM, seeing how the dark knight figs had really put a major dent on my wallet, plus pre-order on XL-shop, etc are fulled. But after seeing the pics posted here, I cant help but fall in love with the figure. Great articulation, wicked lighting works, solid paint job...I was desperate to get myself one. Thanks guys for the wonderful pics
What luck that I happen to come accross this local hobby shop one day. The guy in-charge inform me that he has ordered the IM as well. Managed to book IM from him for $199. IM will arrive this coming friday. Can't wait for him to arrive! He have 5 more available. Any of you guys interested let me know.

Are those comparison pics squashed or something? Cause I was watching it again on DVD and the suit looks a lot more sleeker (like the HT figure) than those promo poster shots.
Me thinks those nitpickers are really just looking for an excuse not to buy this figure. (like they did with TDK bats which is a really fantastic figure and looks great proportion wise, only problem was V2 BB Batman should have been bulkier, if he was we wouldn't be hearing all these TDK Bat being too big)
Are you serious?!?! You think that if you get this you willl be constantly bothered by the fact it is not 100% screen accurate in bulk?! I feel sorry for you if that is the case. (but not really).
This thing is TRULY a Movie Masterpiece and will likely never be bettered as a 1/6 scale representation of movie IM. HT are absolute legend geniuses and this figure will likely not be beaten by any release this year. (the above is NOT just HT fanboyism either, the pics speak for themselves.)
On a side note, how do the hands attach?
Theres always something to complain about huh?
Its really that frustrating? Poor you
I agree, and to be honest, as badass it looks, the lack of bulk is what I first noticed, thus my concern to buy or not to buyNot surprising there are some things that are off... but unless it was a direct comparison I wouldn't notice it. And those are the kind of things that I can live with... its when you look at it and instantly see problems that I get more concerned.
No need to apologise. Everyone is entitled to their opinions.so Snake Sucker sorry to disagree with you I hope I have not affended you with your worshipping of this figure
I don't feel sorry for you, I put 'not really' in my post. Yes, I do understand what you mean, your comments are not exactly rocket science.So do not feel sorry for me, feel happy, cause I just saved myself alot of money for a figure wich I would be bothered about everytime I look at it...I hope you understand what I mean.
I didn't get you wrong the first time, I merely expressed my disbelief that someone could receive this figure and constantly be bothered by it's bulk not being 100% perfect screen accurate.Don't get me wrong, agian
I'm not pushing anything, was expressing my disbelief as I mentioned above, and my love for how great this HT figure looks.I am just talking about THIS figure being to lean, it's not like I am dissing the whole HT figure-range with complaints, (I got 9 HT items...)
I just "complain" about 1 aspect (bulkyness or lack of it) on 2 figures: IM and TDK batman, that's it, don't push it.
Didn't say you do love everything HT make, neither do I, indicated by my 'this is not HT fanboyism' comment. Once again, I was just expressing myself as to how great I feel this figure looks, judging by pics.What is complaint on 2 figures on a whole assortment of figures and vechicles? You can't love everything they make, can you, I wish I could though but I'd love everything I would have even less money to spend on them
