Hot Toys - MMS 191 - Iron Man 3 - Tony Stark Specs & Pics

[Hologram AI]

You're questioning Hot Toys throwing in something extra?

If you watch the scene back its not like there's a Mark 42 helmet sitting on the work bench anyway so as far as I can tell the alternative to not giving us a slightly random spare Mark 4 helmet would be to get nothing. I know which I prefer.

No, I'm curious as to why they threw in a Mark 4 helmet compared to throwing in the Mark 42 helmet. I didn't say I wish they didn't include it. I'm wondering why they decided to throw it in with everything else they're throwing in being parts from the Mark 42 compared to just throwing in a dummy Mark 42 faceplate/head. Just an observation.

This would have been cool to see added in.

I thought the Mark IV helmet was so you could pose it with Dummy.

Good catch!

Bingo there's the reason. Good catch indeed.

It would've been funny if the set came with a dunce cap.

I don't suppose the Mk. 4 helmet lights up.... but the neck peg plug only allows it to be used with the Mk. 7 neck (without modding)

Mk. VII's helmet...

Mk. 4 (Tony IM3) helmet...

Looks like they just stuck the Mark VII's peg into the Mark 4 helmet since it was their latest neck peg. Guess you can stick it onto the Mark VII neck then although the head will look thin since the Mark VII's head is overall wider.

Or...for HT's up-coming Mk. 3 (Die-cast).... re-making/re-designing Mk. 4/6 might be too soon...

You might be able to tell ....if the mask on the helmet is designed to be removable, it might be glued in place for this release...

Great I will be switching helmets

Ah! Thought I would be fine with the Mechanic version... but I gave in, yet again...
All these pictures are always too tempting... Fortunately not too many other releases are coming up beyond this that I'm interested in

What display cabinet is that??

Custom made to accompany the set up he has.

63"W, 30"D and 20"H

Gadzooks! What a display...I see a very large pile of loot, there....

I still haven't decided. It's nice, but not sure if it's nearly $300 bucks nice. I might use my points and get it for $80 bucks though... decisions, decisions.

I'm wishing I didn't pre-order the Iron Patriot before the movie came out. I would've probably pre-ordered this instead. Still deciding at the moment as well. No more FLEXPlan for SSC makes it harder..

 

[jedibear]

Just the usual transparent pole and black clip.

Thanks Edward....

I'm glad to see there's something for support...I'm just sorry HT didn't include a "regular" stand. The platform set-up is great, but like the Luke/Bespin Antennae set, it's just a bit much for "everyday" display for me...not complaining mind you...this set looks great!

 

[DarkSpartan062]

Does the stand it comes with fit in a detolf? Looks like it may be a tight fit!

Nope. Won't fit.

Nope. Won't fit.

Darn. Looks like it's going in the billy bookcase!
