Surprised more reviewers haven’t been dinging the new one for its “weathering”. That paint compared to the original looks like what they’d tear apart a Sideshow figure over.
Now quit yer bichin’!
Looks decent when you distort the image.
I do think they should have re-sized it like the rest of the diecast lineup, but it still looks decent. The paint apps are weaker than the non-diecast version for sure.

Had such high hopes they would re-release this. Then I found out about the height.Looks decent when you distort the image.

exactly. Just like how both of Justin's reviews of the InArt Joker make it look pretty bad with a huge head. Something happens in some of Justin's shots that just distort the figures sometimes.Check out jedha patrols comparison and its more obvious. I'm not sure what is going on in justin's lineup shot but next to the mark 7 or mk 46 reissue the dc mk1 is probably 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch shorter.
I think Hot Toys does have some scale and proportion issues, but at the same time the film makers were always open about wanting to portray the armour as a "character" in and of itself, i.e. they wanted it to look like a superhero so they played fast and loose with the proportions.I always felt the HT Iron Man figures were rather under-scaled, especially the earlier armours, when displayed against other Marvel/Avengers figures. It's fairly clear when you see them lined up that the illusion of a man, even a 5'10"-ish Tony Stark doesn't fit inside the armour. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong and the Iron Man armours are supposed to be like a Tardis
I never felt like die cast was a great benefit to figures. Most are only partial die cast with a large percentage of plastic elements remaining. There is some definite heft and weight to make the die cast figure feel more substantial in hand, but there's also a huge price to be paid for that. is it really worth it? Once displayed they don't look much different from a well made plastic version. I also found most die cast figures to be too heavy for what they are at this scale and often cumbersome and top-heavy. Die cast seems to work well for some figures and less for others.This figure shoes why I've never been a fan of diecast on iron man figures. Other than the extra weight, there's really no benefit to it.
True. I skipped mk 5 because it is so brief on screen.Mark V is obscenely tall anyways. It's probably the tallest "main" HT Iron Man. Which is weird for a form fitting suitcase suit.
