Was lucky to get one, it is on it's way

Got mine today! It came with a letter stating that the price was wrong but they honored it anyway. Forbidden Planet is great!
The answer to your first question is the subject of your second. HT is literally 'milking" all they can from the Iron Man license. What is the significance of milk?...I don't know. The magazine must be of great importance in Asia. When you google the magazine lots of obscure things pop up.

Milk? It does a body good?
Actually it's an HK lifestyle magazine celebrating an anniversary.
As for your first question: $$$

I think they are playing games. They said in a letter it was supposed to be 216.99, not 179.99. The web order was for 161.99. If they charged me 179.99, I will contact my credit card. They should of sold it for that price, or not sent one and said it was a mistake. To send it at a different price is lame, and might be illegal. Invoiced for a different amount and charged another.
I just unpacked mine and set it all up. This thing is amazing! The colour is fantastic in person and this is now one of my favorite Iron Man Items in my collection.
The paint is much better than the original IMO. Reminds me of the WM look in the 90's IM cartoon....
It really pops does't it? Anyway here is a quick pic of mine and the pose i have it in.
^ Great pic. I think the paint makes it stand out or "pop." Just my preference....

I've considered purchasing this guy especially since my current war machines waist snapped. I had him in a flight pose for a while, and when I took him off the stand his waist seemed awkwardly slanted when I tried to center it. he snapped in half. please take that as a warning for all of you who keep your war machine in a flight pose, be mindful of the stress the pose is putting on this figures fragile waist. I tried unsuccessfully to reattach it, but to be honest he still displays great, and I actually have had no issues with his top half falling off. To be honest I actually feel like I'm getting more dynamic poses now because I can pose his legs and upper torso seperate. I do realize though that his value is gone so I pretty much have a war machine figure for life, which doesn't bug me all that much b/c I really couldn't have ever seen myself selling this guy.

That's why I bought mine.
