Hot Toys MMS 145 - Iron Man 2 - Mark V 1/6 limited edition collectible specs + pics

[Marvel-ous]

Here is the deal, HT won't include a new Tony sculpt or a full other figure, that is a pipedream. BUT HT loves to include accessories that can be used with their TrueTypes as well as leftovers from other pieces. The Mark IV has a Tony HS that people aren't necessary using. I could see them like they did for their Thriller figure for example throwing in a racing suit but nothing else meaning that collectors could head over and buy a TT and throw their own Tony sculpt on it from another buy.

Even then it's a longshot that we'll get anything that wasn't already included in the initial solicit.

Well said.

I beg to differ about the Mk.IV head sculpt.
That's such a great likeness of RDJ that I've used that exclusively on the Mk.IV body instead of the helmet.

I'm pretty sure I'm not alone in this either.

Especially the people who have both the iv and vi, i'm sure the head sculpt is being used on one of them.

 

[The Mike]

____ing seriously guys? because HT would say "you know that a lot of people are probably using this great sculpt so let's just scrap any plans to include on anything". Just because they made it an option doesn't mean it's being used that way, I'm sure someone would stick the racing suit on Obama at one point.

 

[Centurion]

Yeah, I'm ____ing serious.

i agree. i used to do that too, until i found out the collar is leaving a bit of red stain on the RDJ neck.

I'm just disagreeing with this "The Mark IV has a Tony HS that people aren't necessary using"

 

[Oscar_the_Gungan]

I disagree with that as well. My Mark IV has the RDJ head sculpt on, with his helmet in one hand and a doughnut in the other, like he is trying to make some decision between the two. My Mark VI has the battle damaged face plate on.I figure you have to change things up to give the display some variety.

You aren't. My Mark IV hasn't had the helmet on since it came out of the box. RDJ head all the way. Can't leave a masterpiece head sculpt in the box like that.

Well then forget it, no way in Hell they'll include a racing suit because six guys posted they use the Mark IV Tony sculpt on their actual Mark IVs and so they must be representative of everyone who ever bought a Mark IV so there is no use in bothering. Sorry for those with hope.

I display my Mark IV w/RDJ head sculpt only & agree 100% there's no chance in hell we'll see a racing suit with this release

An alternate BD helmet is likely since most (Mark III BD, Mark IV, Mark VI) of the previous HT IM armor figures came with 2 heads to display. Idk about the Mark I or Mark II since I never owned those but they weren't part of the IM 2 line anyway.

Regardless, looking forward to this release big time, the Mark V is my personal favorite armor to date

Meh, I was spitballing any way.

The helmet didn't take too much damage though.

Could be an alternative Tony sculpt:

the minimate had one:

but HT would have probably made a bigger deal out of that wouldn't they have?

The heavy odds are we'll get nothing more than what was solicited.

For the record, I was commenting on the racing suit...only this statement:

The Mark IV has a Tony HS that people aren't necessary using.

 

[badrat]

Bottom line is I would like to have this figure sooner rather than later. Supes , CA, Mark II and this one are going to be bunched up at the end of the year. Lotta money there.

 

[dedguy]

The helmet didn't take too much damage though.

Especially considering that the figure specifically represents the battle damage in the third step there.

 

[Theokan]

chrome paint guys, that's what it's gonna be

 

[rubio95]

chrome paint guys, that's what it's gonna be

Except that the suit features no chrome whatsoever.

It's polished. POLISHED. As in, 'not chrome.'

 

[dedguy]

When people say chrome, what they mean is metallic instead of metal fleck.
