They've canceled figures before. this wouldn't be the first time.

NOOOOOOO , actually they never cancelled anything but just pretend that they never announced it and let it just die off without official word which is even worse than cancelling :p
 
Examples??? I know Avatar has kinda gone that way, but there's been movement there right? Maybe Matrix and The Watchmen but we got at least a couple of things from those.
I'll be devastated if they don't release this figure but the big issue is clearly the r&d and engineering required to get this thing screen accurate vs functional. It was a CG suit afterall.
I guess some things in 1/6 are even beyond HT...
 
The V seems to be what's used the most in the marketing of the film, I would be surprised if they skipped it.
 
I hate this thread! everytime i see a new post I get excited that it's good news, then when I read and see no official announcement, I die a little inside...:(

Well maybe I just get bummed out.
 
i can't imagine them not making this.
i think it will be in the new year that we see anything of it though.
i think the mark 6 box with join with the mark 5 and they want to surprise us all or something
(this is me hoping though)
 
I really don't think the mkV is any harder to make than previous figures. Easier even as it doesn't have all the flaps and weapons and what not. Detailing aside it's a pretty straight forward humanoid figure.

yeah but then you have everyone here's demands to make it absolutely accurate and have tony stark in a race suit as well...
which would be awesome but i think it probably lowers the chance of us getting it or at least slows down the process.

Examples of canceled projects off the top of my head

Gordon ( though they said they might release him when batman # rolls around)

Alien Queen

Whiplash II

Flying Dutchman Jack Sparrow
 
I'm surprised we haven't seen anymore pics of this armor beyond the initial proto release. makes me wonder what surprise HT is planning under their bunker.
 
Whiplash II I think was supposed to say Iron Monger. As far as I know not a peep has been said about Whiplash II
 
You guys do realize that the Mark I was announced way way after the original Mark III right? The Mark IV has just been released with the Mark VI still to follow. It is way too early to say that the V has been cancelled. I can't imagine Hot Toys doing that with how the Iron Man franchise has been doing...this isn't the Watchmen we are talking about here. Sorry Watchmen fans but Iron Man is way way more popular globally. Rorschach (cancelled figure) << Mark V (definite figure)
