Hot Toys MMS Iron Man Mk1 DIECAST

[ArtDamage]

Maybe they mixed up Chrome Mando and Mk1s weathering at the factory


In all seriousness, this looks great to me. I'm so so on the headsculpt, but I won't likely use it anyways.

This is the 2.0 but expect it to be like this, since sideshow had shown it's basically the same height as the 2.0. this is just painful even his head looks small compared to any recent unmasked Tony stark head

Yeah I cancelled toddler size MK1 $500 for this fock outta here

And that's on a thicker base as well !

Part of the issue is Marvel's official scaling for the suits. They scaled the suits up in later films to make Iron Man more imposing but they couldn't go back and retcon the size of Mark 1. His size is technically accurate according to what Hot Toys has from Marvel, but I agree it looks very odd if you're putting Mark 1 next to the other suits.

I guess thats one part of the issue but as u can see the size of the Tony stark heads from mk 1 to 85 are not in scale

Yeah because it's not a Marvel issue. It's a Hot Toys issue. They hero scaled up their IM figures to be 7 foot tall but when it came to this figure they didn't bother altering the height to be in scale with their own figures.

The Tony Stark head is of course not in-scale with their recent stuff because they decided to just repaint a sculpt from 2012.

Not a fair comparison in my opinion, the Mark 7 is one of his tallest armor same goes with the 5. That boy is a UNIT

The world's not fair.

 

[jsgord58]

It's true. Sadly.

This little figure is still a fail. This Mk I was my most anticipated Iron Man... and HT just lobbed a lazy soft ball.

I can't wait to laugh when in-hand pictures show this standing next to their die cast Mark 5 and others.

No problem for me, height wise. I'll just pretend Hollywood legend Mickey Rooney was cast as Tony Stark.

Disney Iron Man reboot -- Iron Boy!

I can’t wait to see the comparisons that show the new race suit tony with no armor on is taller than little tony Jr in his Mark I armor.

Well, I guess Im keeping my 2.0 - that i picked up back in the day for 160 or some change and it still looks great - not a fan of the glossy look here and there's no height update so... first the Batman Begins and now this - .. will save this $$ for whatever InArt or LIM releases next...

And sandy.

And no doubt their inevitable Riri Williams/Ironheart will be taller than him as well.

I read somewhere that AOTC ended up with 7 writers, some who didn't want to be named, and that was the kind of dialogue they ended up wiith.

I've seen a few people post on FB groups that they already got "item shipping soon" emails from Sideshow for this.

Yep. Charging on the 31st. Can't wait

Reagan has his review up:

Tony…taller without any armor than in the Mark I armor I think I would not have chosen to release these two figures a few weeks apart without any consideration for scale.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Teen Tony is clearly in the new Mk I... or a girl.

Such a shame. Third chance and just another toss-off from HT.
