I'm so on the fence about ordering this. I think I want a war machine, but $405... (Timewalker)

My only hang up is war machine is such a secondary character and I really don't have the funds to drop that much on someone who doesn't do much on screen. I feel like I'd be better served with Dr. Strange. He was awesome in IW.

Either you like the character or dont. Either you want the figure or you dont. As the other guy said, how releveant is screentime in relation to how badass he looks on your shelf? Will it nag at you once you pose him? "Man...he only had just one badass scene, why did i get him?" He participated in the Wakanda battle, probably blew up the most outriders after thor, and definitely left his mark on the battlefield. And now you can be reminded of that when you pose him getting ready to unload his arsenal. If that isnt good enough for you, then yea save your money. You arent better served based on screentime. You arent served at all. You are better served by how good the figure looks on your shelf and how it makes you feel every time you walk by him and think man he looks great

 

[KerotanFrog]

You guys are right. The figure looks badass and would look great next to the Mark VII I have on order. And besides, the character of Rhodes is a badass and has been so since Iron Man 2. I went through the entire thread and read everyone's responses. I think it jaded me somewhat. I'm gonna sleep on it and decide tomorrow between War Machine and the 1/4 Vader. I appreciate the peptalk lol.

Edit: I decided on the Vader. War Machine is nice, but it couldn't compare.

Haha well ultimately, getting what you love is always the right choice

Haha yup. That's the entire point of this hobby. I think I may get War Machine later on down the line, as I don't think he will sell out too quick. I still really like it, and felt kinda sad I couldn't pick both when I woke up this morning lol. But I couldn't pass up the ultimate Vader. I'm definitely keeping my eye on this though.

They have and they sold out hahah war machine may not have that much screen time but in the comics and the MCU suit designs he might as well have the logo “BAMF” because he just is..

Haha true. I'm already making plans of when I can order him. I don't think I'm waiting too long. I'm throwing aside the whole screen time argument. War Machine is awesome and I need him. End of story.

Seeing as this figure isn't supposed to be released until after Avengers 4, I'm curious how many of us are waiting to see the mk 5 before making a decision on whether or not to pre-order this guy.

For me it's more of a completion thing. War Machine doesn't have that many die cast figures, so he's easy to "catch em all" so to speak. So even if he does have an awesome Mark V figure, I'll pick up that one too. It's neat to showcase the progression.

Iron Man is much more difficult to collect all the Marks, but that doesn't stop me from trying!

I'll get them both. The only War Machine i do not have is the very 1st one.

 

[KerotanFrog]

Welp. Self control lasted not even 24 hours. Just ordered War Machine. Can't wait.

Now barring ThreeZero deciding to put Berserker Armor Guts up for preorder, I'm done ordering for a while lol. Well, until HT announces a new Cap or Spiderman.

Edit: I lied. Felt the pull of Revenge of the Sith and covered my bases. See signature for details lol.

Oh man, with the exception of Mark II, all War Machine are always sought after hence the ridiculous price increase. I won’t sleep on the Mark IV.

 

[KerotanFrog]

Yeah it looks amazing and I can see this costing double on Ebay after release.

 

[ShadowX81]

Luckily we have over a year to make up our minds.

Why is that? Poor design? Higher production numbers?

They massively overproduced the entire Age of Ultron line of figures, and the Mk 2 is less impressive in terms of size and paint detailing than the Mk 1 and Mk 3, both of which came out after.
