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

[Wulf]

Got mine this week, very happy with it except that the color is washed out on the arms, more on one than the other. Have contacted my dealer about it.. take a look:

Has anyone else had this issue? Haven't been following this thread..

I assumed that ^^ was always supposed to be a burnt type effect for the battle damage no?

There's an BD arm included so I don't think so.

It's on every MK V, it's intended.

Really?

Why isn't the shoulder part like that? Or the other side on the same arm? It doesn't look like it was intended. Looks more like a color fading issue.

Exactly, that's why I figured is was a slight burn effect... Thus the black

Have you heard of weathering effect

 

[Wulf]

Have you heard of weathering effect

Yes I have. And if this is supposed to be a burn effect than it has been poorly done.

Digging up an older thread.

I just got my Mk.V today.
All was good at first; I removed the fists to put on the articulated hands. When I wanted to remove the articulated hands, the right hand was too tight on the balljoint, and the whole balljoint/shaft ripped right off his wrist!

The LED unit stayed wired (fortunately), and even if I just plug the thing back in, it's tight enough that it stays in place for display purposes. I put a bit of epoxy around the rim of the shaft, and plugged it back in; I'll wait a couple of days and see what happens.

Has this happened to anyone else?

 

[zipflint]

Yep, exact same thing happened to me. It's easy enough to fix just like you described, except I used crazy glue and didn't quite do it right so now I'm kicking myself. I need to take it apart again but I'm afraid of breaking/scratching other parts in the process.

 

[Mister D]

I've around 20 Mk.V "panties"... various timed/batch release (HK/Malaysia/Australia) .... none have faded...

How's that for sample size?!!..

I've seen some weird fetshes, but you are a freak.

 

[jedijim3002]

Yes. Happened to me too right out of the box. Panicked. Then fixed it. No big deal.

 

[Furby]

I had the same wrist problem on mine also, both left and right one. just super glued it back in place. Holds up fine.

 

[rubio95]

Still love this guy

 

[Balrog]

^^ Love that shot man!

I had the same problem too. I used super glue, but didn't apply it properly and the hand flap-cover got glued in place. It no longer freely rotates. I guess you should be extra careful about that. Rotate the hand flap-cover constantly until the glue is dried up so you don't make the same mistake.

GAH! Mine came in today and the small spring in the chest popped out! Thing is absurdly small - almost no chance in hell I find it. Does anyone know how I can get a replacement (from eBay, so the return route is unlikely).

 

[Centrocal]

perhaps you could just buy a spring at a hardware store or maybe a clock store
