Hot Toys Iron Man - Reused parts

[KingGrayskull]

As I am a complete newb to the HT Iron Man line I was wondering which parts of which figure were reused on other figures. I would be interested in seeing where HT reused parts of several figures, so I know what to expect when I order a certai figure. Maybe some other people find it usefull too. I will try to list all HT IM figures and which parts have been reused from other IM figs. As I have only the MK VI and WM by now my knowledge is pretty limited. Let me know what you know and I will update it in this post.

1.) Mark I

Complete new sculpt

2.) Mark II


3.) Mark III


4.) Mark III Gunmetal Version

Repaint of Mark III


5.) Mark III Battle Damage


6.) Tony Stark Mech Test

Complete new sculpt

7.) Mark IV

Complete new sculpt

Differences to Mark VI:
- chest piece
- extra head blank Tony
- accessoires (base, glasses, donuts)

8.) Secret Project

Repaint of Mark IV

9.) Mark V

Complete new sculpt

10.) Mark VI

Reuse of Mark IV

Differences to Mark IV:
- chest piece
- helmet has removable plate
- extra head Tony in helmet
- accessoires (base + Excl.)
- The upper front chest with the shoulder/clavicle micro-munations.
- Forearms, more glued together parts
- LASER thingy on the hand-guards
- Different right shoulder guard that allows switching
- Replaceble BD parts... whole left arm and minor mods

11.) Mark II Armor Unleashed


12.) Mark III Stealth Armor


Lets get all the recycling together.

As long as the reuse is accurate, who cares? It saves them costs of new tools and thus saving us from a higher price point

Oh its nothing negative in my eyes. It is more that I am very impressed by my first two HT Iron Man figs and it amazes me how all these pieces fit together so well. So I was wondering how many different figures they have created and how much these pieces are compatible with each other. Just to get an idea what I will receive when I order another figure.
In fact I prefer reusing parts were needed. As you have already mentioned, why change something that doenst have to be retooled.

No offense but the poll options are stupid

I find it no different than SS reusing armor pieces for their armored (trooper) division. Tis what it is......

Well yes, they are not ment too serious.

Yes, as mentioned before it is perfectly allright. I agree. But obviously it is just me who would be interested in this.

Because I was bored. Didnt know that people would really read that much into the poll.
